A Lighting Control System Manages Natural and Artificial Light Effortlessly
How many times do you flip on a light switch throughout the day? Or, how often do you or other family members forget to turn off the lights, and they stay on in an unoccupied room?
What if you could glance at a touchscreen and see what lights are on throughout your home? And with one tap, turn them on or off and change their colors and intensity. What if you could pull out your smartphone at work and turn off lights left on when rushing out the door?
What if?
A lighting control system offers effortless management of every light in your home. It also brings immense beauty, with lights in every imaginable color and diffuse sunlight that brightens a space while promoting health and vitality.
Let’s explore the world of intelligent lighting and how it’s changing the lighting landscape in San Diego, CA, homes.

Personalized Lighting
A lighting control system is much more than a smart bulb and an app that controls it on your smartphone. Instead, these systems offer integrated solutions, connected devices that communicate with your home automation platform and each other. Together, they seamlessly control natural and electric light.
While you can manage every light in your home from one user-friendly interface, your home can also control the lighting for you, creating the perfect environment. For example, sensors can determine if a room is occupied, the level of natural light, and if someone’s walking down a dark hallway in the middle of the night. Your lighting responds accordingly, shutting off lights, dimming when sunlight enters a room, and illuminating a soft trail of lights when your kids head to your room in the dark. We can also program the entryway and kitchen lights to turn on when the garage door opens.
At Andrus Smart Technologies, we partner with Control4, the leader in home automation. In 2022, they came out with a built-in color wheel that can instantly change your lighting to fit any mood. With the latest dynamic full-spectrum lighting, you can change your lighting throughout your home with one spin of the wheel to every color imaginable.
Daylight Harvesting
Natural sunlight plays an essential role in a home’s lighting design and the health of its occupants. Unfortunately, traditional shades and window coverings can be challenging to control, requiring raising and lowering them as the sun arcs across the sky.
Motorized shades change that, opening and closing throughout the day based on direct sunlight and changing temperatures. They protect your home’s interior from harmful UV rays while allowing the diffuse light of the sun to bring beauty and the natural light that improves our moods and increases our energy. In response, your electric light dims and brightens, reducing energy consumption while maintaining the ideal environment.
