Save energy with a smart home
The future is now. We have the technology to create more efficient, healthier homes, and VELUX roof windows are a part of it. Smart homes are here to stay, and we can optimise our living conditions with integrated technology and smartphones. Smartphones enable us to monitor and control devices at home, which can substantially impact several health benefits. Since Rome wasn’t built in a day, every smart home starts with connecting one appliance to another and then letting it evolve from there.
What are the benefits of a smart home?
It’s not only Goldilocks who’s happiest when the temperature is just right. Room temperature has a significant impact on your comfort. That’s why it’s essential to know which temperature makes you feel most comfortable, and how that may vary room to room. Many people like their bedrooms to be cooler than other rooms in the house, while almost everybody likes a warm, cosy living room. Total room comfort is achievable with intelligent roof windows that can help you regulate the temperature. That way, it’s just right when you come home from work.
- Every aspect of your working environment affects your home office productivity, from lighting, noise levels, layout, furniture, and proximity to nature.
- Natural light and good ventilation are critical for a pleasant and efficient home office.
- VELUX roof windows are a simple way to add more daylight and easy ventilation to a home workspace.
Control the temperature around the house
You don’t have to invest in lots of intelligent thermostats to regulate the room temperature. An often overlooked source of comfortable room temperature is windows. Your windows can let more daylight into your home, as well as regulate the temperature. With VELUX App Control, you can control solar-powered / electric roof windows and blinds with the push of a button."If your home office is going to work for you and not against you, its design must be conducive to productivity."

How to improve indoor air quality
We spend up to 90% of our time indoors. While we hear a lot about outdoor pollution and rising CO2 levels, outside, have you ever wondered about the air quality in your own home?
Indoor air quality has a considerable impact on our health. The average person breathes about 10,000 litres of air per day, most of which consists of air from their home. That's a lot of air!
We believe that roof windows can provide an aesthetic element to every home and a lot of natural light. In addition, they promote a better indoor climate that will benefit your health.
