Lowe’s bring a new home appliances management system called Iris – Part 2

Iris will be available in three denominations as per the requirements of the user.

Iris Safe and Secure ($179) –The owner will receive an e-mail, text, or call when alarm triggers at home or when someone from the family arrives at home. The kit includes a hub; motion sensors; a keypad; and door, window, and cabinet sensors.

Iris Comfort and Control ($179) – This kit controls your house’s energy and temperature levels. The kit includes the hub, along with a thermostat that can be controlled remotely from the app on a smartphone, PC/Mac or tablet, and a smart plug that can remotely control devices and generate reports on the usage.

Iris Smart Kit ($299) – A combo kit of both packages. The kit includes a Hub; a motion sensor; a smart plug; a key pad; a range extender; a smart thermostat; and two window, door, and cabinet sensors.

The owners can add and install other devices, appliances and alarms to the package. The expandability of the system is its biggest selling point.

In addition to email and text notifications, the user will be able to remotely stream videos directly from the security cameras to keep check on who is coming and going out of house and what is happening inside. This increases security and safety on children when they are at home, alone.

The package also has a premium service for $10-per-month without any long-term contracts. The service offers additional messaging to the homeowner for home events and lets customers program their home for customized actions like scheduling the lights to come on while they’re on vacation, or setting a temperature change for a specific time in the day.
