Renovate or Rebuild is a show where two teams, team “renovate” and team “rebuild”, compete to convince an Aussie family they have the best solution to providing more space, comfort and reducing energy bills. The show aims to crack open sustainable building options and encourage Australians to choose healthier and more energy efficient homes.
In the episode, Business Manager of Building and Home Automation Solutions, Christian Schiemann, gave the host a tour of his own home north of Brisbane, which is decked out with ABB-free@home.
Christian explains how the smart home system helps to future-proof his home, while providing a more comfortable and better place to live.
He shows how easy it is to control elements like lighting from an app on his phone, whether he’s at home or anywhere in the world. Christian also demonstrates how easy it is to set up a “scene” from the app. In this case, it’s “movie night”: the lights dim, and the fan switches on...
Finally, Christian explains how easy it is to install free@home – because the switches already have everything inside, you don't need to worry about data cabling or wiring: “You just replace your stupid switch with a smart switch, basically.”
