AB_Your Next Home Upgrade_ What You Need to Know About Smart Bathrooms

You may have begun your smart home journey by now, starting with your bedroom, living room, or kitchen. Perhaps it’s high time to start making your bathroom a smart one! Here are some reasons why touching up your bathroom is worth it–made even better with a fiber-fast home WiFi connection.

Here’s why you should make the switch today!

Smart bathrooms are more hygienic

From MIIIW Authorized Store on Lazada

Thanks to touchless technology, a smart bathroom won’t require you to make contact with knobs or levers that may otherwise harbor germs or bacteria. A smart faucet, such as the Xiaoda Automatic Water Saver Tap, automatically detects your hand’s proximity and switches on when your hand is at a particular distance–making handwashing or brushing your teeth incredibly convenient! 

Smart bathrooms are incredibly customizable

Adjusting your shower heater can be tricky. Figuring out your preferred temperature can be hit-or-miss, and you’ll have to crank the knob to the right spot every time you shower, especially if you’re using a shared bathroom. Fortunately, installing a smart shower in your bathroom can fix that small inconvenience. KOHLER’s Anthem Digital Control console, used in conjunction with the brand’s faucet systems, turns your shower area into your very own home spa. You can save your favorite shower setting–which includes temperature and water flow control–switch on Eco Mode to save water, and make further customizations through the KOHLER Konnect App. What’s more, you can connect it to your smart assistant for convenience.

Smart bathrooms upgrade your home’s aesthetic

Form meets function–high function–when you replace your traditional bathroom fixtures with smart ones. Most of these devices have sleek and modern designs that boost your home’s overall aesthetic. Because smart home technology increases your home’s market value, you can achieve a catalog-worthy home that would be highly marketable should you choose to sell it in the future.

Smart bathrooms give you cost savings

From Myke.ph

 

Most smart home technology is designed to be environmentally sustainable and energy-efficient. While the initial purchases and renovations may be costly, they might actually save you more in the long run. Installing smart lights and motion sensors in your bathroom, for example, allow your lights to automatically switch on and off. A smart toilet, on the other hand, can sense how much water is actually needed and uses as little as 0.6 gallons per flush. In contrast, a conventional toilet uses approximately 1.6 gallons for every flush.

Make the smart switch to PLDT Home

A smart bathroom won’t be complete without fiber-fast home WiFi. That’s why upgrading to PLDT Home should be at the top of your house upgrade list!
