Simple and intelligent home automation

We are Loxone silver partners offering in house design and implementation of Smart Home Systems.

For a long time we felt that there were no specialist tools to help us optimise and control services in homes. We felt that available systems were expensive and none offered reliable control of all elements of a home. Some concentrate on lights, some on AV, some on blind controls. We love that Loxone allows us to integrate all these systems and more without compromise while offering better value than many of the systems it outclasses. All home controls are rolled up into a single personalized app for the occupiers that they can install on their smart phones and tablets.
Loxone Smart Home
In partnership with Loxone we can offer control of all switchable devices in your home integrated into a bespoke app in partnership. We use Loxone to monitor the power consumption and operation cycles of all switchable devices in our clients’ homes. This allows us to tune in to our clients’ needs and actual usage to optimize their system for them and reduce unnecessary energy usage and expense. Of further benefit to the client is that reducing usages extends the life of installed equipment.

If PIR sensors in building do not pick up movement, the system assumes you are at work and ventilation and heating is turned down Smart Home automation frees up time to spend as you wish.

Our Smart Home systems facillitate smartphone control and timed operation of:

  • Audio Visual systems
  • Lighting
  • Heating and hot water
  • Chosen appliances
  • Burglar alarm
  • Electric blinds and windows
  • Front door operation
  • Feeding pets
  • And much much more…

Loxone allows us to implement real-time background fault reporting. From errors from flat batteries, damaged gears in a garage door, a blocked flue in the boiler, low pressure in the system, blocked MVHR filters and more. Data collected on the running of properly functioning equipment would be automatically compared to current running data and any disparity would be flagged. We offer this as part of our ongoing maintenance package

Loxone can detect when all occupants have left the house, and when this happened, it automatically goes into away mode:

  • Hot water goes off
  • Heating is turned down
  • Ventilation system goes on standby
  • Burglar alarm goes on
  • Presence simulation can be activated with lights behaving as if you were still at home.
  • Mechanical blinds can be automatically operated depending on sun position to prevent overheating.

    “I have enormous respect for Bow Tie as a contractor: It’s a real pleasure not having constant battles and headaches from a builder trying to do the bare minimum.”

    – Justin Bere

    “After 5 years of living here we are moving to the country and it breaks my heart to leave the beautiful house that you created for us. I wanted to say thanks again for the beautiful work that you did on our building – it’s been amazing to live in and you guys did a first class job. Would always recommend you if someone asked for an excellent contractor.”

    – Nick H

    “This house is cosy and comfortable but in a natural way. Our old house was of similar scale, area and build and if you wanted to heat a room you had to blast it and the air would then be very dry and that heat would quickly leak out.”

    – Toni M

    “Passing our air test the first time is testament to how well Bow Tie do things”
