10 Best Smart Switches for Home Automation

Ceiling fans have been an integral part of our spaces for years in different forms. They have evolved in form, shape, size, technology, etc. over the years. The conventional fans that we have grown up seeing have now acquired the form of smart fans, which make the ceiling fans a tad bit intelligent to make them apt for home automation. Smart fans like other smart gadgets offer the ability to be controlled from remote locations, customize settings, set schedules, and so on. A few models also offer sensor-based outputs based on the occupancy in the room, humidity and temperature of the space. In addition, there are options for lighting integrated with the fan which can be used as an additional light source or suit the ambiance of the space. There are ample features that the smart fans have to offer based on the brand and model of choice. To help eliminate the confusion and streamline your choices, the following are a few insights that might aid in understanding the smart fans better –
What Are Smart Fans and how do they work?
Smart fans are ceiling fans that are equipped with smart technology, allowing remote operations through a wireless network via an app. These fans can be controlled from anywhere with the aid of smartphones or tablets. There is an array of features that make a ceiling fan a smart fan. Many fans support voice assistants like Alexa and Google Home as well for remote operations, making them a perfect accessory for automated homes.
Costs attached with the Smart Ceiling Fans?
A smart fan usually costs similar to a mid-range ceiling fan. The cost determining factors include the size of the fan or the sweep of the fan, blades, lights and other features.
Points to consider while choosing Smart Ceiling Fans –
While looking for smart fans one should consider the following points –
<ul>
<li>Energy Savings</li>
</ul>
Smart fans can prove to be highly energy-efficient thereby aiding in energy savings. With built-in sensors (temperature, humidity and occupancy), the fans can control the speed based on the humidity and temperature of the space and can power on or off depending on the presence of people in the room.
<ul>
<li>Fan Blade Pitch and Size</li>
</ul>
Blade pitch is the angle between the horizontal of the ground and the oblique cutting edge of the blade. One should look for a blade pitch of about 10-15 degrees for good airflow and less power consumption.
The fan blade size refers to the length of the blade, thereby defining the fan sweep or diameter of the circle that the fan makes. The fan sweeps range from 600 mm to 1500 mm. The most commonly used sweep size is 1200 mm.
<ul>
<li>Airflow</li>
</ul>
Airflow is the volume of air circulated by a fan in a minute. It is measured or indicated in CMM (cubic meter per minute). The higher the airflow rate, the higher the air circulated. Therefore, one should look for higher airflow rates or CMMs when it comes to bigger spaces for the fans to be effective.
<ul>
<li>Operations and customizations</li>
</ul>
Most smart fans can be operated via a dedicated smartphone app. These can also be operated through voice assistants such as Alexa, google home, Siri, etc. In addition, many fans can be operated using an Infrared remote control.
These modes of operations aid in the remote working of the smart fans and help in customizing the settings according to user preference. One can set timers and schedules, set the speed of the fan, turning on or off the light panel in the fan, all at the click of a button.
<ul>
<li>Motor</li>
</ul>
For smart fans, one should look for BLDC (Brushless DC) motors for better energy as well as operational efficiency.
<ul>
<li>Connectivity</li>
</ul>
Look for connectivity options like Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to be able to connect the smart fan with one’s smartphones, tablets or smart hubs.
<ul>
<li>Installation</li>
</ul>
Smart fans are easy to install and can even be installed in place of the existing regular ceiling fans. Post-installation all one needs is to connect the fan with a smartphone or voice assistant via a wireless network.
<ul>
<li>Lighting Style</li>
</ul>
Many smart fans come with integrated LED lights with adjustable settings. People who like to have a cleaner or minimalistic look can opt for smart fans without lights. Choosing a lighting style for a smart fan is completely a personal preference as it doesn’t determine the performance of the fan.
Advantages of Smart Fans
Following are the advantages of smart fans-
<ul>
<li>These are convenient to use and can be operated remotely too. One can customize the settings, and create custom schedules as per the needs.</li>
<li>These are less noisy compared to the conventional ceiling fans, therefore making them a great choice for people who love a little peace in the environment.</li>
<li>They aid in saving energy and thereby electricity bills. This is for the simple reason that the fans can be turned off when no one is in the room owing to the occupancy sensors, which adjust themselves according to the temperature and humidity of the space, can be turned off remotely as well.</li>
</ul>
Are there any challenges with Smart Fans?
The challenge that one can face while installing a smart fan is the post-installation procedures such as linking the fan with the apps, voice assistants, etc.
