Leading the field in home automation, energy management and commercial lighting control

OUR TEAM

The Intelligent Environments team are experienced in the design and installation of a wide range of systems, and have the ability to turn complex tasks into simple solutions. We pride ourselves on designing a system that meets your needs and your budget.

Whether you are ‘techno-phobic’ and want ‘no nonsense’, ‘push button’ control for your home or business . . . or you are a lover of new gadgetry and want multiple interfaces from your phone, PC and iPad® . . . whether you are building that long awaited dream home . . . or you’re looking for energy savings on a limited budget, Intelligent Environments can design the right solution for you!

HOME AUTOMATION INTEGRATION

Modern homes incorporate a multitude of different systems, all intended to make life more comfortable for those living there. Controlling all these systems e.g. lighting, heating, cooling, blinds, AV systems, water features, irrigation, gates, pool pumps, security cameras, etc can be fairly complicated. Most homes include:

• Remote controls for the blinds, for the TV and for Sky®, for the multi room audio, and to operate the movie screen!
• Switches & push buttons for when the remotes go missing!
• Multiple music sources such as iPods, MP3 players, CDs, (even LPs!) Media Centres, Apple TV, etc.;
• Movie collections on DVD, MySky®, Apple TV, Blu-Ray or downloadable via the internet!
• Schedules for pool pumps and irrigation;
• Keypads for security, lighting etc;
• Smart devices such as iPhones®, iPads®,

Wouldn’t it be great to simplify life and have everything linked together to provide seamless one touch control of your home? We can design a home automation system to do just that . . . and so much more! Wireless technology now offers the opportunity for existing houses to benefit from a home automation system, without the need for expensive re-wiring.

If you are building a new home, you can take the opportunity to ‘future proof’ and include elements at the construction stage that will allow an easy upgrade path for future advances in home automation technology. Intelligent Environments offer an initial FREE CONSULTATION to advise and help you plan your home automation project.

HOME THEATRE, MOVIE ROOMS, AV SYSTEMS and so on!

You may have a dedicated ‘home theatre’ or ‘movie room’ . . . or you may simply enjoy a superior viewing experience on TVs throughout your home, and the pleasure of tuning in to your personal music selection from any room in your house.

Whatever your requirements or budget, we will be pleased to assist in sourcing the appropriate solution to meet your needs, and if required, incorporating into a full home automation system. Contact us for a FREE CONSULTATION.

ENERGY MANAGEMENT

In today’s tighter economy, every business is striving to cut costs and improve the bottom line. It makes sense to examine expenditure even in essential areas such as power usage, and see if savings can be made. If energy savings are possible this benefits not only your bottom line, but the planet also. Environmentally conscious companies are therefore keen to be ‘seen to be green’!

Whether you are a large organisation looking at implementing a comprehensive companywide energy management plan, or you are an SME looking for ways to ensure lighting and heating is not wasted in unoccupied rooms, Intelligent Environments can assist you. Initially we offer a free consultation, either by telephone, or on site, dependent on the location of your business.

In some instances grants are available towards the costs of creating and implementing an energy management strategy for your business and/or installing a control system that will allow you to monitor and control energy use. Additionally, many companies are able to finance the lease of such a system from the $$$ savings that are made on their monthly electricity bill.

We can provide advice and assistance in obtaining both grants and/or leasing finance (where applicable).

COMMERCIAL LIGHTING CONTROL

Lighting can represent as much as 40% of energy consumption in some buildings. In most instances lighting control is one of the easiest ways to save energy costs. In fact, installing a lighting control system can save up to 50% of the standard electricity bill for some companies. Solutions can be simple: installing timers, dimmers and basic movement sensors; or more complicated allowing light harvesting, with occupancy and light level sensors, and integration with the building management system.

We are experienced in providing innovative solutions to meet the needs of all commercial buildings, whether they are offices, warehouses, hotels, restaurants, retailers, schools, hospitals, sporting facilities or public buildings. Give us a call to discuss your upcoming project.

AUDIO VISUAL TECHNOLOGY – COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS

Demands on the modern Board Room are many and varied. Intelligent Environments can assist with all requirements: projectors, sound systems, video conferencing, whatever and provide simple control for easy operation by any member of staff.

Talk to us also about AV installations for retail environments, hotels & restaurants, conference facilities and more.

SECURITY

Everyone needs to feel secure: at home, and in the workplace. 

Surveillance cameras, alarms, security lighting all have a part to play. Linking them with your control system can ensure an unobtrusive but seamless safety net to protect your most precious assets.

CONSULTANCY

IEL regularly undertake consultancy work at the planning stages of a project. 

We are happy to work with you on the design and specification of a residential or commercial project. 

Should IEL be awarded the installation contract when the build stage is reached, we then take our consultancy charges off the installation costs

MAINTENANCE

Whether your project is a brand new building, a renovation to an existing one, or simply an upgrade to the lighting system, contact Intelligent Environments for simple, no nonsense suggestions on cost effective ways to meet your objectives.

We view every project as a partnership – stage one, the design; stage two, the installation; stage 3, an on-going energy partnership where we will work with you to maintain your system and ensure your goals continue to be met.
