Enjoy Effortless Living with Today’s Technology

Did you know that the light switch was invented over 100 years ago? And, yet, we still use it to control the lights in our homes. Can you imagine if we were still watching the same TV that was first invented in 1927? The images would be faint, blurred, black and white, and coming from a big, bulky, box-like contraption. 

In essence, that's what it's like to still use a light switch in your Des Moines, IA, home. 

Today’s smart home lighting control consists of elegant custom-engraved keypads, beautiful touchscreens, handheld remotes, and your voice. But wait, it gets even better. Your lighting can also automatically respond with no effort on your part. Walk into a room, and the lights turn on. After everyone leaves, they turn off. You wake to lights the color of the rising sun and watch them transform throughout the day, settling into the shades of the setting sun at day’s end. 

Today’s lighting control systems offer beauty, elegance, enhanced well-being, and convenience. It's clear that if you're still controlling your lights with a switch on the wall, it's time for a change. Let’s explore the many options in today’s lighting control systems.

It’s like comparing a flip phone to a smartphone or a Nintendo 64 to today’s Nintendo Switch. Lighting control systems are much more sophisticated and can achieve more than off-the-shelf smart bulbs.
