Smart and safe home: peace of mind even when you are away
A leak, an iron left on, a dark empty flat, a stranger at the door — a few inexpensive devices with a phone app take care of these worries. I choose them for your flat, set them up in one app and show you how to use them.
What can be installed
Water leak sensor
An alert at the first drop — under the sink, by the washing machine and water heater.
Smart plug
Turn off the iron, heater or kettle from your phone.
Smoke detector
With phone alerts, not just a siren.
Lights “as if someone is home”
A bulb or plug on a schedule while you are away.
Video doorbell and door sensor
See who has come and know if the door is opened.
Separate Wi-Fi for devices
Smart devices on the guest network, your phone and laptop separately.
Prices
Devices are paid separately — I will suggest inexpensive models that share one app. Small mounting — depending on the situation.
