Most popular automations in apartments
- Switch off all lights and fans with one tap when leaving home
- Geyser on a timer so water is hot when you wake up — and off automatically
- Turn on the AC on your way home
- Lights that turn on automatically at sunset
- Check from office whether you left anything on
- Video door phone and smart lock to let in help or deliveries remotely
Tips for flats and housing societies
- Choose systems that keep working on the local network if the internet goes down — common during power switches to DG backup.
- Many societies have an intercom at the door; ask if your video door phone can sit alongside it.
- Smart locks on the main door are allowed in most societies, but keep a mechanical key backup and inform security if you share access codes with domestic help.
- Tenants can use plug-in devices and removable retrofit modules — get the landlord’s consent for anything fixed to doors or walls.
- Geyser automation with timers can noticeably reduce electricity bills in winter.
How to prepare
- List the rooms and appliances you want to control.
- Make sure your Wi-Fi covers all rooms; weak spots may need a mesh router.
- Note the brands of your AC and TV so integrations can be planned.
Frequently asked questions
How much does home automation cost for a 2 BHK flat?
A basic setup covering lights, fans, AC and geyser typically costs ₹40,000–₹1,00,000 in Delhi NCR. Adding smart locks, curtains and sensors takes it to ₹1,50,000 or more.
Do I need to break walls or re-wire?
Usually not. Smart retrofit modules fit behind existing switchboards, and the switches keep working manually as well.
What happens if the internet goes down?
Good systems keep working through physical switches and on the local network. Remote control from outside home needs internet.
Can I control my AC and geyser?
Yes. ACs are controlled through IR blasters or smart AC controllers, and geysers through heavy-duty smart switches with timers.
Does it work with Alexa and Google Assistant?
Most popular systems support both, along with their own phone app.
Can I take it with me when I move?
Plug-in devices and most retrofit modules can be removed and reinstalled in your next home.
