As we navigate the new normal, we are all looking to stay healthy and feel good—and thanks to smart technology, it is easier than ever to achieve this. We can connect, automate and protect our homes and ourselves.
Check out these top picks from The Home Depot, then try their online guide to learn even more and find the best devices to bring comfort and convenience to your home.
A Digital Assistant. You’d be surprised at how smart appliances can create a pleasant and inviting environment for a well-balanced, comfortable home. You can use voice controls to turn off the lights or even change the speed of a ceiling fan. And get this? The Google Nest Learning Thermostat 3rd Gen learns your favorite settings and adjust to keep you feeling comfortable all day and night. And it will send an alert to your phone if your home ever gets too hot or too cold. Plus, it can also help with your monthly expenses by saving you money on your energy bills.
Hands-Free Living. We all know that clean hands are key to staying healthy and that where touchless fixtures come in. They are really changing the way we look at our daily routines. Touchless sinks, like the U by Moen Smart Kitchen Faucet, allows everyone to quickly and safely sanitize while keeping germs at bay. You have the option to control the faucet by the app, sensor, handle or even your voice. It also features great presets for common tasks, like filling your water bottle.
Mobile Monitoring. Smart devices can give your peace of mind by keeping track of your home. Ever wonder if you closed the garage door? Well, now you can just check your phone instead of turning the car around. And if it’s open, you can actually close it. A smart display system, like Google Nest Hub Max, lets you keep an eye on your home with the built-in Nest Cam, even when you are away with motion and sound alerts that are sent to your phone.
You can also install a Google Nest Hello Video Doorbell so you can see who’s at the door and communicate with them when you are not home. It can even tell the difference between a person and a thing, then alert you even if someone doesn’t ring the bell—and you’ll never miss another package again!
