GREAT NEW HOW-TO-AUTOMATE BOOK!

HOW TO AUTOMATE BOTH NEW AND EXISTING HOMES


Great new how-to-automate book! Does the design work for you, and makes it easy to put together your system.

Automating the following electrical devices are just a few examples of what this book covers:

Lighting systems, ceiling fans/appliances, air conditioning, pool and spa, irrigation, water heater, window coverings, and much more!

In addition to controlling electrical devices, there are numerous operating modes included in this book, such as:

The Leaving Home Mode, Arriving Home Mode, Good Morning and Good Night Modes, Entertainment Mode, and of course, The Christmas Mode. One press of a button or occurence of an event can set your home in just the way you want depending upon the occasion.

Each system is illustrated with easy-to-follow diagrams that illustrate and describe what the system feature offers the homeowner, how it works, the sequence of operation of each feature, and the make and model of each component required to provide each feature. A specification of each component is also included.
