Isn't it nice to come home to a comfortable house where everything is the way you want it to be? This is how it is with Eva Smart Home. It's easy to set up, easy to manage and easy to create the perfect atmosphere in your home. With Eva, you can save energy and feel safe in a hectic everyday life. Our services help you make your day easier, so you can spend your energy on something else. The heart of Eva Smart Home is Eva Hub and the app that safely and easily takes you through the steps and allows you to connect to smart devices. Once the devices have been connected, you get a full overview of your home in the app, where you can see temperatures, brightness, humidity, power consumption – or other functions, depending on the devices you have connected. You can also see if doors or windows are open, if there is movement in the house, or who goes in and out. The app was designed to make everything easy. Easy to dim or change the color of lights, easy to adjust temperature or turn devices on and off. And with Eva Smart Plug in addition, you can make most things smart. Coffee maker? Lamps? Only the imagination sets the limits! In combination with a thermostat, the Eva Smart Plug can make even older panel ovens smart. If you have an Eva Meter reader, you get a full overview of your electricity consumption, and if you also have Eva Smart Plugs, you can reduce or shift your electricity consumption. We call it Eva Energy. Even the door can become smart if you have a compatible electronic door lock. Let the carpenter in when you are not at home or create timed accesses for the neighbor to water your plants. Or you can simply lock the door with your phone if you forgot. Settings you often use can be saved as "moods" so that you have shortcuts to "Movie night", "Romantic dinner" or "Wake up" for example - or other moods of your choice. Because after a long evening, nothing beats the comfort of crawling under the covers and with one tap, Eva will take care of the rest – turning off the lights and bidding you “Good night!”. Wouldn't you agree? Here are some of the key features of Eva Smart Home: - Light: turn on/off, dim, and select colors - Heating: regulate the temperature up/down on the thermostat or using the Eva Smart Plug - Define moods with light and warmth as you wish and automate these based on time or movement - See sensor values such as temperature, humidity and brightness (lux) - Monitor your total electricity consumption over time using the Eva Meter Reader - See power consumption (Watts) on devices using the Eva Smart Plug - Control your Yale Doorman or ID Lock via Zigbee modules - Lock or unlock the door from anywhere - Add accesses with or without time limits - Receive notifications if doors or windows are opened, or if there is movement in the home - Keep track of what is happening in the home with the event log - Give access to as many as you want, either as a user (limited to viewing and managing) or as an administrator. Eva Smart Home talks to Eva Hub via a platform in the cloud and can therefore be used from anywhere. You can monitor and control the home wherever you are, as long as you have Wi-Fi or a mobile network. The app is under continuous development and new and improved functionality will be released regularly. Available functionality depends on which smart devices are connected to the hub. Eva Hub is Zigbee-certified and supports most Zigbee-certified smart devices, e.g. Ikea Trådfri, Philips Hue, Ledvance Smart+, Zigbee module for Yale Doorman and products from Elko such as Elko Supert TR. Eva also has specially developed devices in its product range such as Eva Smart Plug, Eva Meter Reader and Eva Mood Switch, and more are on the way.
