Motorized window shades are one of our clients’ favorite smart home technologies. Imagine shades that automatically raise and lower throughout the day, letting in diffuse sunlight while protecting fine art and furnishings. 

If sunlight's glare hits your computer screen or TV, one tap on a remote or touchscreen lowers the window shades. Smart shades enhance privacy and security while adding energy efficiency and, to a large degree, define a life of luxury.

One of our partners in this arena, Hunter Douglas, is coming out with a new line in the spring of 2023 that we’re excited to share with our clients. Aura Illuminated Shades take motorized window coverings to the next level, offering three solutions in one. Let’s explore this latest shade solution and what it can do for your home in Coeur D’Alene, ID.

You’ve probably heard of smart devices or even have a few. Some of the most common are smart speakers, video doorbells, smart bulbs, and smart plugs. While these devices add convenience and enjoyment to your life, they pale compared to an integrated home automation system. 

At Wipliance, a home automation company serving Spokane, WA, and the surrounding areas since 2006, we’ve witnessed the changing landscape of smart homes. Today's technology has transformed our day-to-day lives, including our entertainment, lighting, and security. 

Let’s explore the makings of a smart home and how the right one transforms your lifestyle.

With the colder months arriving in Hayden, ID, we’re all getting in the mood for staying in and having a restful lazy day with the family. Just imagine! You order some delicious take-out, prepare a cup of hot cocoa, and snuggle up with a blanket. But something is missing, right? Of course it is! You’re missing some good ol’ home entertainment. 

To make the most out of your favorite movies, series, sporting events and more, you need a dedicated home theater with world-class installations that provide you with the content-watching experience you deserve. 

With so many DIY options available on the market, it can be tempting to try and save some money by making the installation yourself. However, you will soon find that professional installation is the key to a high-performing home theater that allows you to enjoy superior entertainment for many years to come.

Music exerts a tremendous influence on humans. According to John Hopkins Medicine, listening to music has been shown to improve sleep, enhance mood, improve memory, reduce anxiety, and even reduce pain. That’s pretty powerful stuff. 

The question becomes, how much do we use the effective healing power of music? Our lives get busy. We rush home at the end of the day to spend some time with the kids and get dinner started. Others bring their work home with them. Before we know it, a day has passed without us tuning in to our favorite playlist, listening to our treasured vinyl, or just taking time to relax and let the music surround us. 

Here's the good news. A whole home audio system can change that. Let's explore how these systems transform homes and homeowners in Liberty Lake, WA.
