Smart Homes for Kenya

Have you ever left home for the long weekend and forgot to turn off
the water heater or that light in the store? Most of us only realize
this on our arrival back from the trip. This does not have to be the
case. With the Comfort Home Automation this situation could have
easily be resolved with a phone call to the house and it’s sorted
without any human intervention.

Over and above taking care of such nitty gritty issues, the Comfort
Home Automation system is a fully fledged alarm system with voice
prompts that make it a breeze to use. The Voice prompts can also be
used to alert the user of events such as behind the house movement
after a 7pm or the exact location of an alarm e.g.“Outside Garage
Movement”. The CCTV footage of this event can then be automatically be
viewed on any TV in the house.

The system can also turn on lights, pool pumps, aircon units,
irrigation solenoids, and many other devices based on movement in a
room, time of day, activation of a scene button or any combination of
the above. This optimizes the use of these services thereby reducing
wastage of power. It can also control your amplifier, DVD player, DSTV
decoder and projector screens at the touch of a single button without
you having to manipulate all the several remotes.

Any events at the house can be reported to you automatically by a
phone call or SMS as well as alerting your local security company.
Alternatively log into your house via the internet and control or
monitor anything as if you where right there.

This is whereby the architect designs the house in such a manner that the house occupants can continue adding more rooms in future as their needs increase.
The house starts with 1 bedroom which can easily be added to become 2 bedroomed ,3 bedroomed and 4 bedroomed.

See the house below designed by www.a4architect.com for more information.

From Phased Residential House Construction

As the family size grows, the house also grows concurrently.
This architectural design aids greatly in planning for the future.
The beauty about this design is the fact that one can start with the low price 1 bedroomed house. After a period of time as the space need increases, the 2 bedroomed unit is added then the 3 and 4 bedrooms consecutively.
The use of Structural Insulated Panel technology assists in that with these panels, its very easy to add extra rooms to the building. SIP houses are light weight so there will be no settlement cracks as witnessed in the normal masonry house types whenever new additions are extended from the main house.
With the normal masonry stone houses, people are forced to buy larger houses-3 bedroomed houses-yet maybe they only require to use just 1 or 2 bedrooms.
This way, they are forced to buy and pay for space that they are not using.
In this design, the occupant pays for the exact space that they require in that if the occupant only requires just 1 bedroom for the time being, that’s the only space they pay for.

In the era of the 21st Century, its important that consumers make decisions that avoid unnecessary waste of money and resources .
