What types of Smart Devices and Software Are Included?
iApartments smart home package includes smart devices specifically designed for multifamily and build-to-rent communities. Let’s look at the hardware and software included in a best-in-class platform solution.
Smart Home Platform
A smart technology platform is like a musical conductor who orchestrates all the digital services that enable hardware and software to connect and function in a workflow. It enables you to add additional amenities, like garage access control or self-guided tours. It keeps thing tidy and under one roof.
Smart Hub Thermostat
A smart hub acts as the centerpiece for communication to all devices throughout the home. When a resident uses the iApartments resident app to lock the front door, the signal goes to the cloud, then to the smart hub, and finally to the smart lock. Control of each smart device works in this manner. iApartments keeps things simple by including a hub in their smart thermostat.
Front Door Lock
A Smart Lock provides keyless entry for residents and management teams. These types of digital locks greatly reduce costs when compared to traditional key management.
Leak Sensors
Water leak sensors are placed in strategic areas of a home or apartment. Typically, under washing machines, garbage disposals and water heaters. If a leak is detected, an alert goes out to the maintenance team.
Resident App
Residents download the iApartments app to easily control all facets of their smart home. They adjust temperature from the couch, can assign guest smart lock access, and turn off lights from bed.
