SMC Presents: Automated Window Treatments - Best Practices
Join SMC for their CPD on automated window treatments at the Lutron European Experience Centre, with breakfast and a tour of the showroom.
Lighting control isn’t just about artificial light; it also encompasses the control of natural light through the use of automated blinds, curtains, and shutters. In this CPD you will learn about the different types of automated window treatments available and the associated means of control – from keypads/light switches and remote controls, to touch screen devices, and voice control. We’ll also explore fabric specification, the treatments available, and explain the benefits of each.
Learning objectives
Upon completing this CPD, the designer will:
- Understand and articulate the necessary steps for successfully delivering automated window treatment installations.
- Gain the ability to explain essential design parameters, system requirements, and available technology solutions relevant to automated window treatments.
- Develop the skills to analyse different fabrics and fabric treatments, recognising their benefits and determining their suitability for various automated window treatment applications.
- Be equipped to effectively collaborate with technology consultants, ensuring that designs align with client expectations.
