Personalized Comfort
Every employee is different, and while some may love the sunshine, others are positive they’re getting a sunburn from sitting too close to the window. Chilly temperatures, afternoon headaches, distracting glares, and more–the arguments can go on and on. But, with Lutron motorized blinds, each window can be individually programmed, giving officemates the power to control the amount of sunlight falling into their workspace.
Temperature Balance
Office spaces can fluctuate in temperature throughout the year, especially in a seasonal climate like Iowa. Luckily, Lutron has a solution for this too. Paired with temperature sensors, blinds can adjust automatically to contribute to office climate control, aiding the HVAC system. This feature benefits employee comfort and cuts down on growing heating and cooling bills.
Energy Efficiency
Temperature control is one way to save energy, but there’s another efficiency to explore with lighting costs. When sunlight can provide enough brightness for healthy work, your building will no longer rely solely on artificial lighting. When paired with a light sensor, Lutron motorized blinds can help balance natural and artificial light by partially opening or closing to lower energy consumption throughout the day.
