Making Home Tech Affordable
Elkins Technologies of Aurora, Illinois announces it’s new partnership with Home Logic of Marblehead, MA, manufacturer of Home Automation products.
(PRWEB) June 16, 2005 -- “Home Automation is gaining popularity in the area.”
says Elkins Technologies president Mark Elkins, “but many times it is either
poorly done or unaffordable for most local homeowners. Our partnership with Home
Logic allows us to provide owners and builders of lower cost homes with a level
of automation and convenience normally found only in multimillion dollar homes.
The product fits well in homes starting at $350,000.”
The heart of the
Home Logic system is a Windows XP based controller called the Home Brick. The
Home Brick can control the security system, HVAC, lighting, irrigation, pool
equipment, music and video, or anything else in the home. It even comes with a
built in MP3 server and can access Internet radio. All the features can be
accessed from a wall mount or wireless touch screen, a pocket PC, or any
computer on your home LAN. It can also be accessed via the Internet. “Access is
completely secure.” says Elkins “The owner can easily verify security, since all
access to the system is logged.”
The Home Logic system has won a number
of awards and recognitions. These include High Impact Product of the Year from
TecHome and CEPro magazines, and Product of the Year from Electronic
House.
Elkins Technologies offers a full lineup of home and business
automation and communication products, including home theater, phones, security
and networking.
