DIY house

It is unlikely that today someone can be surprised by the concept of a smart home. Although few are clearly aware that the smart house system is technology, which provide, first of all, the priority life support and support the optimal parameters of the environment, and in the second place entertainment and comfort.

Much of what these technologies allow is quite possible to organize in a regular city apartment using available solutions.

Maintaining a healthy microclimate

It is this task that is one of the main ones performed by the system of a smart house. If you decompose this task into the components, we can conclude that a comfortable microclimate consists of certain humidity, temperature and regular renewal of surrounding air. Technical tools that allow this to achieve this are widely accessible today. For example, any modern air conditioner can be programmed so that air temperature controls. Many modern devices allow you to control the level of humidity. Most modern models are equipped with a heating function. Such a function is in many split systems.

Heating management

Of course, the air heating is unlikely to replace the winter heating. But is it possible to regulate the operation of radiators? Central heating in the apartment works according to its own rules, and there are not uncommon when the window is positive, and the batteries in the apartment are hot. It is unlikely that such a house can be called smart.

Management of a smart home is an important part of creating comfortable living conditions. You can add intelligence to central heating using a device such as a radiator automatic thermostat. Its design includes a thermostatic head with a control handle and a valve that crashes into a pipe that supplies the coolant into the radiator. The rotation of the head of the thermoregulator allows you to choose the value of the air temperature, and subsequently the device will automatically maintain this temperature until the settings are changed. In this case, depending on the selected settings, each heating device can function in individual mode.

The system is a warm floor

Creating a smart house with your own hands, you get an advantage to choose only those systems that are really necessary. An unchanged component, without which, as a rule, no smart house of warm floors costs. At the same time, an intelligent house, the equipment for which is very diverse, involves intellectual control systems for warm floors, which allow you to choose various heating modes: you can control the temperature not only of the floor, but also the air in the room, set the temperature restrictions for various flooring, program The functioning of the system using a built -in timer.

The sensory panel of the intellectual system is mounted in an ordinary socket box. A smart house design can assume a variety of and even non -standard solutions: in fact, a warm floor system can be used not only for the floor, but also for almost any surface. For example, for walls in the bathroom.

Safety

Of course, the Smart House system is not limited to creating and maintaining a comfortable microclimate. We must not forget about such an important task as ensuring security. This task consists, as a rule, of the two parts, the organization of firefighters and the organization of security alarm.

Fire alarm

The installation of fire alarm requires a thorough approach to the installation and design of the placement of detectors on the area of \u200b\u200bthe facility. In each room, in addition to rooms with high humidity (toilets and bathrooms), installation of at least two non -adescrifice or one address detector is required. Address detectors are much more expensive. In addition, fire detectors are divided into manual, they are installed at the exit of the house, thermal are mounted in kitchens and garages, and smoke for all other rooms. The cable with which the fire system is installed should ensure its operation during the fire. It is advisable to lay a cable in a corrugated pipe. For ease of operation and installation of cables, the pipe is laid behind false walls, suspended ceilings or in strobes.
Carrying out the installation of a smart house, one should not forget about the control panel, all the detectors are connected to it. Like the panel detectors are divided into analog and targeted. The former is almost twice cheaper. To notify the fire, a light-sound warner is mounted.

If the house is built, and the laying of cables for detectors is impossible, a radio channel system is used. It differs from cable only the cost of equipment. With independent installation of this equipment, it will cost a little more expensive. The biggest advantage of this system is a simple and quick installation.

Security alarm

Like a fire alarm, the security officer has two construction systems: targeted and non -adobal. The main majority of fire alarm devices allow you to use them for protection. This significantly reduces the cost of the system and eliminates the need to install additional equipment. To ensure the protection of the house, magnetic-pin detectors are installed on the wipes, doors, garage gates that respond to contact break, voluminous detectors installed in the corners of the room and notified the glass beating.

Implementation does not differ from the organization of fire alarm, it is also made in two stages (wired system) or one (radio channel). The first step is mounted on cable products before decoration and plaster. The second step is connected by the main elements of the system.

Lighting

The smart house program allows you to organize controlled perimeter lighting. Central management can be carried out in such a way that the lighting will be turned on depending on the level of illumination on the street. This ensures significant savings and finances and time, which usually has to be spent on inclusion of lighting. Although there are switching devices in time, the inclusion time will still have to be adjusted. An important role is played by cloudiness, and the time of calling and sunrise every day is different.

Here is an example of how the lighting system can be organized

The brain of a smart house

The most important element of the system is the central control unit. For a small system, a controller is suitable as a block, and for a large computer. The computer as the head of the system provides simplicity of control, flexibility, versatility, expansion. It allows you to solve a huge number of diverse problems within the system. Due to the presence of a huge amount of available software, frameworks, libraries, you can saturate the central apparatus of the system of extensive functionality. The computer fully copes with the task of integrating individual blocks and the creation of a single system of a smart home.

To ensure the maximum protection of the central server, it is better to use the Linux operating system: it works stable more than others and viral programs written under it. The computer should be installed in a convenient closed room. If it is difficult to work in this operating system, then you can use the usual Windows, but you should take care of good antivirus protection.
