Holidays are those precious few days when people want to spoil themselves, luxury being at the top of their priorities and conservation at the bottom. So anything that can maximize comfort and reduce waste becomes priceless. 

Enjoying a holiday begins with finding your precious property in good order after a long period of being locked down, a difficult and often expensive  task in the best of cases, but one that can become significantly easier with sophisticated automations.

Holiday Properties
Its deceptively complicated to manage a
modern property every day, all day long
Saving Energy
Eliminating Waste - Maximizing Usage
It's no secret that when on holiday, economy and environmental conservation is not exactly high on anyone's list of priorities, especially when a property is rented. 

Usually the greatest loss of energy comes from heating/cooling systems left running at full power all day long, resulting in some enormous energy bills, quite unnecessarily.

With some clever logic individually regulating the temperature in every room depending on the time of day, if there are people or empty for, if door and windows are open and outdoor weather conditions, a very pleasant climate is maintained throughout the building, while significantly reducing waste.
Sometimes less, is more.  
Water Conservation
Gardens are the pride and joy of all holiday properties, but they do require a lot of care and attention, watering, being the most labour intensive and intrusive task that needs to be done almost daily.

Simple timer based watering system can manage small gardens with resilient plants because they simply don't know when and how much water a plant needs. For some plants too much water can be worst than not enough, so being generous with watering times is not always a choice. Even when it is, its an expensive one.
Eliminating Waste - Maximizing Usage
An intelligent watering system is aware of soil moisture & temperature, air humidity & temperature, wind strength & direction and sunlight exposure, even the day of the year. Each part of the garden, each plant, each tree can receive the correct amount of water, at the correct time of the day, when the conditions are just right.
Knowing when and how much to water every plant depends on the constantly changing weather conditions, soil condition, even the weather forecast.
No More - No Less
Even the most passionate of gardeners cannot maintain such sophisticated watering schedules.   
Security
In a world infest with cameras, relaxing without being watched and recorded, while retain a high level of security, is nothing short of a luxury. The fact is cameras are not very good at detecting intrusions, presence detectors using radar technology are far superior, combined with noise, vibration, heat, door and window sensors a very comprehensive detection network can be created, with absolutely no privacy invasion.

When a property is unoccupied, having the ability to control just about every electrical appliance makes simulating the presence of people both and easy realistic. 
Forest Fire
Early Detection
One of natures most powerful forces, early detection is critical in fighting any forest fire. Thankfully we don't have to wait for the skies to turn dark before a fire is detected. There are now may ways of becoming aware of fires, even at considerable distances and automated ways of protecting property.

Satellite monitoring is the first line of defence, with numerous agencies (including NASA) offering worldwide free alerts. External smoke detectors, specialized infrared cameras, remote high temperature sensors, CO & CO2 gas sensors create a very comprehensive detection system, with warning and alerts delivered to any number of phones & email address.

knowing about a fire and not being able to do something about it is not much use, but an intelligent automated system can, even if there is no one nearby.

Once the presence of fire near the property is detected, water sprinklers are automatically deployed around the perimeter using all available water sources to supress the fire, or at the very least minimize any damages.

As electricity is one of the first utilities to fail during forest fires, the entire system is fully self sufficient  and will operate with or without human supervision.

Winter
Maintenance
When the fun is over, holiday homes have to endure long periods of lockdown loneliness, which can be some of the toughest times for any property to endure.

Of the many hazards that can plague a closed property, humidity and stale air often cause the most damage, as they are the source of mould, fungi, yellowing linen and foul odors.

Periodic airing may appear as the obvious solution to this seemingly simple problem, but closer investigation reveals some unexpected complexities. Cost and availability aside, a person opening the house on a regular basis makes some dangerous assumptions.

Are the weather conditions suitable for airing a house? is the house aired long enough? Is mould developing in hard to see areas ? Issues which can be constantly monitored and taken care of when and for as long as needed.

In addition air quality control, monitoring water leaks, power cuts, window breakages, gas leaks and more can all be monitored 24/7 raising alarms when something is not right.

Matching capabilities for which computers can do effortlessly, with tasks that only humans can do, the best of both worlds can be achieved.
