Let There Be Light!
Lighting controls with Lutron Caséta
Smart home technology extends from appliances to security systems and doorbells to lighting to window shades. One lighting control system, Caséta by Lutron, is, literally, one of the smartest lighting control systems available. Caséta does more than just turn lights on and off at set times – It works with other smart products to elevate every room in your home to lighting, audio, and ambient comfort and efficiency. Keep reading to learn about the features this well-connected solution offers.
Features and Benefits
You will always have peace of mind knowing you can come home to a lit house. Caséta lets you schedule lights to come on when it gets dark and even as seasons and clocks change. If you’re away but want to give the appearance that someone is at home, Caséta offers a feature called Smart Away that turns lights on and off in different rooms – no setting of individual light timers required! Depending on the activities going on in your home, you can control multiple lights and set them to complement the activity, such as dimmed lights while watching a movie or bright light for reading. And, when it’s time for lights out at night, one remote turns them all off. Additional functionality of the Caséta lighting system includes geofencing, in which the system knows your location and can alert you, for example, that the lights are still on when you’ve left the geographical boundary of your home. And, you can control the system from anywhere – by voice or by touch. Caséta includes a mobile app and can also be used with voice assistant devices such as Alexa and Siri for hands-free control when you enter a room.
Products
The Caséta line of products provides all you need for keeping your home safe and comfortable. Lutron offers smart dimmers and switches that control lights, ceiling fans, window shades, and thermostats. Dimmer switches can be set up to control multiple bulbs at one time – and you can use just about any type of dimmable light bulb.
The product line also includes kits and repeaters that let you expand lighting controls into every area of your home and a smart bridge for connecting all your devices together – with no negative impact to your home’s existing Wi-Fi and no chance of outage if your Wi-Fi goes down. And, to give you even greater control, remotes are available for light dimmers and switches and for controlling ceiling fans and speaker audio from your couch.
Etcetera
Your home does not have to be 21st-century built for the Caséta system to work, as it can be easily installed in older homes. And, the app is not necessary to use the system, which means that anyone who enters your home can work it. The tech savvy and do-it-yourselfers can install the Caséta lighting control system themselves, as it is intended by work directly from the box. If you prefer, a professional can install it for you. Either way, with Caséta lighting control products in place, you can make your home a whole lot smarter.
