Savant: the Name to Know in Smart Home Automation 

When you walk into a luxury home, you expect more than just fine finishes and striking architecture. The real magic happens behind the scenes, with intelligent automation quietly orchestrating comfort and efficiency. 

That’s where Savant comes in. If you’re just starting to explore smart home automation, here’s why Savant systems are gaining popularity across the Northeast’s most coveted towns and cities.

Whole-Home Control: Simplicity at Your Fingertips

Think of Savant as the conductor of your home’s orchestra. One tap on your smartphone or a wall-mounted touch panel can dim lights, close shades, set the mood for dinner, or play your favorite playlist to every room. 

Instead of wrestling with multiple apps or switches, everything is streamlined into a single, intuitive platform.

Key Savant benefits:

  • Unified control: Lights, climate, audio, video, and security, all synced into one seamless system.

  • Custom scenes: Create pre-set moods for “Movie Night,” “Good Morning,” or “Vacation.” The system takes care of the rest, so you don’t have to think twice.

  • Remote access: Whether you’re poolside or traveling abroad, you can check in and adjust settings from anywhere.

Smart Lighting: More Than Meets the Eye

As we’re sure you’ve observed, lighting has a noticeable effect on how your home looks and feels. With Savant lighting control, lights and shades respond automatically to schedules and external cues, tailored to your everyday routines. 

What makes Savant lighting different?

  • Circadian lighting: Lights adjust their color and brightness to mimic the natural progression of the sun, supporting energy during the day and relaxation at night. Homeowners report improved mood and better sleep simply by letting their lights follow a smarter schedule.

  • Custom scenes: Program your lights to gradually brighten as you wake up, set the perfect ambiance for dinner parties, or turn every light off at bedtime with a single command.

  • Energy management: Savant’s systems let you monitor usage, then adjust settings for optimal efficiency. You can even automate lights to turn off in unused rooms, which is practical for large homes where wasted energy adds up quickly.

Savant Power: Take Control of Your Home’s Energy 

Luxury doesn’t mean much if you’re left in the dark during an outage or can’t charge your EV when you need it. Savant Power brings true resilience and control to your home’s energy ecosystem.

Here’s how it works:

  • EV charging & renewable integration: Connect your electric vehicle charger, solar panels, and battery backup into one coordinated system. Power flows where you need it, when you need it.

  • Instant backup: When the grid goes down, Savant Power instantly switches to battery or solar power, keeping lights, refrigerators, and security systems running without skipping a beat.

  • Real-time energy monitoring: Track how much power each room or appliance uses. Set priorities: maybe the wine cellar always stays cold, or critical lighting remains on, while less urgent circuits pause during outages.

Not Just Bells and Whistles 

For those designing or renovating a luxury property, smart technology is not just about the “wow” factor. It’s about future-proofing your investment, simplifying everyday routines, and protecting your home from unpredictable challenges.

Take the next steps: 

  • Consult a professional integrator early. Wiring and planning are critical for seamless results.

  • Think about how you actually live. Which routines could be automated or simplified?

  • Look for scalable systems. Start with lighting and control, then add power management, shades, or audio zones as your needs evolve.
