Homebuilding company KB Home just announced they’re building my dream home, so I guess I’m packing up and moving to California!

“Stainless steel is a functional, practical material with unique aesthetic appeal. Architects and engineers the world over are taking advantage of stainless steel’s unique combination of properties.”

The company’s plugs and light switches will be controllable via both Siri and Apple’s Home app for iOS. The products will also work with any apps that make use of Apple’s HomeKit framework.

Another fan of radiant heat is Jason Carter, president, Innovative Comfort Systems Inc., Lynnwood, Washington, although most of the homes in his area have oil- or gas-fired boilers paired with radiators.

IAQ equipment supported: Compatible with the Trane CleanEffects whole house air cleaner, FreshEffects energy recovery ventilator, and EnviroWise inline ventilators. The ComfortLink-II communicating controls provide technicians and homeowners simple control and service reminders for installed accessories. Hyperion communicating air handlers also have optional integrated UV light accessories that only operate during cooling mode, which lengthens the life of the UV bulbs and reduces energy savings and the cost of operation.

“We used to build homes and heating systems to last over 100 years, and they were expensive back then,” he said. “Today we are mobile, and no one keeps a home forever, so we build as cheaply as possible. Customers no longer believe or want to pay the real expert, because they have too often been disappointed. We teach that the old dead men who invented this stuff long ago got it right, but we have forgotten their ways.”  

Haiku Home has created a range of smart ceiling fans and lighting solutions, although users can only use voice control with those devices using Amazon Alexa. Thankfully, the company confirmed to CE Pro Europe that Google Home support is on its roadmap for future integrations, noting that it should have more information in the next few months.

First, look at the size of the stove. You don’t need an enormous stove for a small house, so choose one that’s sized appropriately for the square footage you need to heat. A large stove might warm your house quickly, but it will also end up wasting fuel and inadvertently increasing your carbon footprint.

Once it’s in place, the Lyric T6 connects to your home network via built-in Wi-Fi, and is configured entirely from the smartphone app. To get started, you simply need to configure its three heating modes – Home, Away and Sleep – and set up multi-user geofencing, so the Lyric can automatically detect when no one’s home and shut off the heating. If you prefer, you can create a custom heating schedule you can, but annoyingly this disables geolocation.

Now let’s turn onto Third and go over to Monroe Avenue before we continue down to Second Street. That way, we can take in the colorful fish mural on the Environmental Center, and the tiled facade of Squirrel’s Tavern. We might catch a street musician playing there, or in front of the Peacock. 

The competing stoves will feature WIFI connectivity, sensors and micro-processors that eliminate the need to manually adjust air flow and help ensure a much cleaner and efficient combustion. Other competing wood stoves and boilers will generate enough electricity to power everything from a cell phone to part of a home or electric vehicle. One European pellet boiler at the Design Challenge will be charging a Tesla.
