Better Sleep

Are you one of the many people affected by the presence of small amounts of light in their bedroom? Even at night, a full moon, streetlights, or a neighbor’s outside lighting might be enough of a distraction to keep you from sleep. You might invest in blackout shades to block out all the light. But with motorized shades, you can power the blackout shade for easy raising and lowering. Why is this important?

First, you can automate the process with other home automation technologies that turn off lights, set the thermostats, and maybe even start rain sounds or music that helps you drift off to sleep. Then, when it's time to awaken, your blackout shades can slowly rise to let in natural light to pull you out of slumber gently. Best yet, you can leave the light-filtering front shade in place for natural sunlight without letting in the full force of Florida's sun.

Improved Vitality During the Day

Our Circadian rhythms have been tuned by eons of human life adapting to the sun’s light. The bright, blue light of a noonday sun is energizing, while the amber and redder tones of a setting sun are relaxing and get our bodies ready to wind down and rest. Motorized shades can help you harness the natural light by day with convenient one-touch or scheduled control of your shades. Let in the light when you want it, and protect your spaces from heat and fading when too much streams in. Match your interior ambient and task lights to the natural lighting automatically with tunable lighting and automation that coordinates shades and lights for you.

Pure Comfort and Convenience

When wellness is difficult or requires lots of effort, people tend not to do the right things consistently. The beauty of automated motorized shades is that they can do all the work for you! As a result, you can effortlessly enjoy all the benefits of natural light and light control for a healthier lifestyle.
