Should You Choose a MyPlace Smart Home For Your New Build?

MyPlace, designed and developed by Advantage Air, is an innovative technology that turns your home into a smart, automated and remote controllable household. It connects an abundance of household features and products to a central hub where you can control, customize and monitor your home. From controlling lights to automating fancy water features, there's not much MyPlace can't do! With the easy integration of MyAir, you can experience true comfort and security at an affordable price and with a headache-free install.

What Is A MyPlace Smart Home?

The MyPlace Smart Home system is a proprietary home automation system that can connect your household features and turn your house into a smart home. This system incorporates a MyPlace control panel, a hard-wired touchscreen tablet that acts as a central control system for your smart home. It can connect to almost any 240-volt hard-wired system, from water features to garage doors. MyPlace also has several additional systems, such as MyAir, MyLights and MyMonitor. With all these products in place, you can customize your home experience to suit your and your family's needs. 

What features can you control with MyPlace?

MyPlace can technically control any 240-volt hard-wired feature. Still, below, you can explore some of the most popular features MyPlace connects to: 

• Fans: Whether you have a fan in your bedroom or the alfresco for those warm summer nights, MyPlace gives you complete control of your fans. Dictate their rotation speeds, automate their activation times and remotely turn them off without moving off the couch!

• Lights: If smart lights are installed, MyPlace can give you full remote control. You can dim the lights to set the scene or turn your outdoor lights on before you return home, making the journey from your car to the door a little less scary. 

• Water features: Water features can be glorious, but they can also be a pain when you have to control them through a clunky control box. With MyPlace, you can automate or manually control them from a simple and responsive touch screen.

• Garage doors: If your MyPlace connects to your garage, you can rid the nagging voice in the back of your head asking if you closed the garage door. With the MyPlace app, you can receive a notification notifying you if your garage door is open or closed, along with the ability to operate your garage door from anywhere!

• Air-con: Through the MyAir ducted air conditioning system, you can control up to ten zones in your house individually and remotely. If you install smart temperature sensors, you can automatically control the climate in specific rooms, ensuring your plant babies are in the optimal temperature to flourish. 

• Motion sensors: Through the MyMonitor motion sensors, you can customize your home to react to a limitless number of events. If you have an uninvited visitor, the sensors can identify movement, send you a notification and automatically turn the lights on. 

What's MyAir?

MyAir is an advanced smart air-conditioning system providing individual room airflow control. It's a ducted air conditioning system that can provide individual temperature control up to 10 zones. With the options of additional upgrades, you can install temperature and motion sensors that provide automated and energy-efficient climate control capabilities. MyAir can be independent of MyPlace, which means you don't require MyPlace to have MyAir installed in your home. If you choose to install MyAir, an electrician also installs a MyPlace tablet where you can experience the same level of control and customization.

Why you should choose MyPlace for your new build

It's easy to install and connects with your existing wires to provide control to your household features. 

Simple to operate

With so many customizable features, it might seem daunting to figure out how to control your smart home, but it's quite straightforward. You can control every feature from a hard-wired tablet within your house that acts as a central control hub. This tablet is a touch screen system with simple menus and customizable options. There's no ridiculous sequence of buttons to press simply for dimming lights.
