Kamen Stefanov, owner, on combining high-end technologies and construction
Designing all essential components for a smart home and business, selecting products from top manufacturers, and providing comprehensive maintenance and service: when you aim to leverage the latest technologies for living spaces, FUTUREHOME BG is your premier destination for expert advice and top-tier products. The company's owner, Kamen Stefanov, elaborates.
Where and for what type of sites are intelligent solutions in highest demand?
In my opinion the intelligent solutions are in high demand across four primary categories:
First, smart systems for family houses and apartments – these comprehensive solutions encompass lighting, HVAC, automated shading, burglary alarms, presence simulation, home cinema and multimedia, sound systems, access control and energy management.
Second, smart hotels – tailored to the hospitality industry, these systems enhance comfort by managing sound systems, curtains, lighting, and optimizing electricity expenses.
Third, smart solutions for short-term rentals – these systems save time and resources by enabling remote management and ensuring high levels of safety and security. In addition to all above guests comfort is enhanced.
Fourth, automation for business premises, warehouses, or special industrial applications – our portfolio includes microclimate management in organic greenhouses and intelligent management system integrated in a shipping container depot. Logging performed by AI recognition of the containers serial numbers.
Is it possible to integrate these solutions into an existing home or building, or are they only applicable for new constructions?
The highest quality automation system is achieved when every detail is envisioned, discussed, and confirmed with the client at the earliest stage. This involves creating a personalized smart electrical plan tailored to the chosen system and the client's requirements, followed by installing or modifying the electrical wiring. While some systems can be integrated into existing buildings, this often comes with restrictions. New constructions can be made "smart home ready," allowing for full functionality at a later stage.
Is it necessary to design and build a complete solution, or can different parts be made "piecemeal"?
We offer "piecemeal" solutions like motorized curtains, TV stands, and smart locks, which are in high demand and can be used independently. However, our focus is on designing well-thought-out electrical installations that provide future flexibility. Many new building electrical systems are still designed with outdated methods, lacking energy-efficient lighting, sun protection control wiring, flood protection etc.
How can modern technologies help us live more safely and calmly?
Smart technologies significantly enhance safety and tranquility. With constant property supervision through sensors for movement, smoke, flooding, and door/window status, actions are automatically triggered in response to alerts, such as shutting off water supply during leaks. Event history logs add an extra layer of security. Common worries, like whether an appliance was left on, are alleviated with remote monitoring. Automated locking and remote unlocking of doors also contribute to a higher level of safety and peace of mind.
What are the best solutions for enhancing comfort?
Comfort increases significantly with a smart home system. Voice-controlled scenes, like "Good night," can turn off lights, close curtains, and stop music with a single command, all without leaving your bed. Intelligent lighting adjusts to your needs, providing gentle illumination at night and daylight-level brightness in the morning. Many clients report rarely using standard light switches anymore.
How can smart systems reduce utility and maintenance bills?
Intelligent energy management reduces utility bills and boosts energy efficiency. HVAC systems controlled by smart technology can cut monthly costs by up to 30%. The software can precisely manage energy flow between renewable sources, batteries, and the grid, further reducing electricity expenses. Maintenance costs for such systems are negligible, with free software updates and no subscription fees. Clients often request interface tweaks or new functionalities, which require professional configuration.
How do you guarantee the quality and maintenance of the solutions offered by FUTUREHOME BG?
We exclusively work with leading automation system manufacturers like Grenton, Crestron and Loxone, ensuring that clients receive high-quality products and a positive, trouble-free experience. Reliability is our guiding principle, minimizing the need for costly and time-consuming maintenance or service activities.
