More home comfort with optimized security and improved energy efficiency promise the latest technologies for private homes under the keyword "Smart Home". For example, they help homeowners to optimize prevention of burglaries. In addition, the intelligent home recognizes its occupants in the entrance area and ensures safe access. Custom programs adapt lighting conditions and room temperature to individual preferences, and progressive sound systems welcome residents with their favorite music.
Such tailor-made processes and many other practical functionalities for the residential building do not belong to the realm of science fiction, but are already lived reality. About the latest developments and the resulting opportunities for homeowners and home builders informed the construction company Verfuß on their action day "Smart and safe living" on March 10, 2018 in Hemer.
Versatile exhibition and lectures
In close cooperation with various manufacturers of state-of-the-art building technology, the Hemerans will present pioneering concepts in their Bau-Innovationsforum at Mendener Straße 40 from 11 am to 4 pm. The construction company will present an enormous variety of different systems and processes for the smart home as well as well-founded lectures by proven experts.

Visitors to the publicly accessible event will learn, among other things, how modern access and video surveillance systems as well as signaling systems perfectly supplement the classic mechanical measures to ensure the greatest possible protection against trespassing. Innovative companies - among them Bosch Smart Home, the ABV Sitronic GmbH and the window manufacturer Schaumann - present their technical solutions. Further practical tips for burglary protection are provided by Michael Schneider as a specialist in the criminal police department of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Perfect living environment for every generation
Safety in terms of optimum comfort and ergonomically ideal bathroom design is another key topic. Dipl.-Kfm. Marcus Sauer, Head of Training and Consulting at the GGT German Society for Gerontotechnology in Iserlohn, will address in his lecture, among other things, the special needs of the older generations in terms of housing.
Many ideas from the action day of the construction company Verfuß can also be experienced in the permanent exhibition of the GGT, in which they inform about concepts and ideas around the everyday life of the "Generation 50plus". In guided tours solutions for different life situations around the topic "barrier-free building" in the complete rooms are shown by appointment. The construction company Verfuß and the GGT already have a long-term cooperation in this area.
By way of example, the visitors of the day of action can follow the use of state-of-the-art technologies for house planning and try out a 3-D planning with 3-D glasses.
Save energy and resources cleverly
In addition, guests gain diverse insights into innovative home automation controls. They not only make the operation of ventilation, heating etc. - via smartphone, remote controls, etc. - much more comfortable, but also contribute to significant increases in energy efficiency and thus to a considerable reduction in operating costs.
The needs-based ventilation and air conditioning plays an important role here. How sustainability and the healthy indoor climate are connected will be explained by Karsten Kraft from Vallox.
