From simple timers to dashboards that monitor usage, and even home EV charging stations, PDL Schneider Electric offer solutions to maximise your home’s energy efficiency and save you money.
Reduce energy use
The beauty of building a new home is you have a blank canvas to plan for minimal future energy use. Simple inclusions are installing long-life low energy LED downlights, while timers, sensors and sunset switches help by activating lighting only when it’s needed.
The innovative PDL Iconic range uses Bluetooth connectivity for a smart way of controlling lights and some appliances around your home, without the need for special wiring.
Monitor energy usage
Installing a PDL energy dashboard will make it simple to keep an eye on your consumption through C-Bus smart home automation. You can then take control of your usage and make informed choices which will help you save on energy bills.
