A homeowner in 134 15th St, Brooklyn, NY contacted Daven Electric Corp. looking to modernize their home with smart home automation and energy-efficient lighting. They recently remodeled their living space and wanted to integrate smart lighting, smart switches, and home automation wiring for a seamless, connected experience.
During our initial electrical inspection, we found that their home still had traditional wiring that wasn’t optimized for smart home technology. Additionally, they had outdated light fixtures that consumed more energy than necessary. To ensure an efficient and future-proof setup, we recommended:
✔ Upgrading the home’s wiring for smart home compatibility
✔ Installing smart switches and dimmers for remote control
✔ Replacing old lighting with energy-efficient LED fixtures
🔹 Outdated Wiring System – The home’s electrical wiring was not optimized for smart home automation, requiring an upgrade to accommodate new devices.
🔹 Lack of Smart Switches & Dimmers – The homeowner wanted the ability to control lights remotely and set schedules, but their current switches were standard and outdated.
🔹 Inefficient Lighting Fixtures – The existing lighting setup used high-energy-consuming bulbs, increasing electricity bills.
🔹 Integration with Existing Smart Devices – The homeowner already had smart thermostats and security cameras, so they needed a lighting system that could seamlessly integrate.
As an expert Brooklyn electrician, we designed a solution to make the home fully smart-home ready while enhancing lighting efficiency.
✅ Smart Home Wiring Upgrade – We rewired key areas of the home with low-voltage and high-efficiency wiring to support smart home automation.
✅ Installation of Smart Switches & Dimmers – We replaced outdated switches with WiFi-enabled smart switches and dimmers, allowing the homeowner to control lighting via their smartphone or voice assistant (Alexa, Google Home, or Apple HomeKit).
✅ LED Recessed Lighting Installation – We installed energy-efficient LED recessed lighting in the living room, kitchen, and bedrooms for better illumination and lower energy costs.
✅ Smart Lighting Automation – We programmed the smart switches to enable:
✔ Automatic scheduling (lights turning on/off at specific times)
✔ Motion sensor activation in hallways and bathrooms
✔ Remote control via a smartphone app
✅ Integration with Existing Smart Home System – The new lighting system was configured to work with the homeowner’s existing smart home devices, including their security cameras, thermostat, and voice assistants.
After completing the project, the homeowner was thrilled with their new smart home lighting system:
✔ Hands-free lighting control with smart switches and dimmers
✔ Lower electricity bills with LED lighting upgrades
✔ Seamless integration with their existing smart home setup
✔ Ability to control lights remotely via a smartphone app
✔ Enhanced ambiance with customizable dimmable lighting
The homeowner was highly satisfied with our attention to detail, fast installation, and expertise in smart home technology. They now have a modern, energy-efficient, and connected home.
