Hi,
I’m still undecided about installing home automation in our planned new build.
My requirements are as follows:
- Control of roller shutters or blinds (possibly window contacts to detect open windows)
- Control of heating / air source heat pump or solar system
- Control of a video intercom system via a tablet
Of course, I have looked into KNX and the material costs alone would be around 6000€ (approximately 6,350 USD). As an alternative, Loxone is mentioned increasingly often, although the proprietary format is a bit off-putting.
My requirements could also be met with a manufacturer-specific system.
Do you have any recommendations for or against home automation (in my case)?
Best regards

I took over the room schedule from ONeil and adapted it to my needs. I created the drawings in Plancal Nova. The basis for this is the architectural plans from our architect. However, I am a system planner for HVAC and have access to the software through work. For laypeople, such programs might be a bit "oversized," especially if you need to learn the software first and only use it once.
