As homeowners and renters are staying in to keep themselves and others safe, many are turning to indoor projects to pass the time and help spruce up their home. One of the most common (and easiest) home updates people have been making have to do with smart home products. And with dozens of options for every room in your home on the market, what\u2019s not to love?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Smart home devices are relatively inexpensive, easy to install and make your home life much simpler. From detecting minor issues in your pipes and heating systems before they turn major to allowing you to monitor your home no matter where you are, smart home devices can help you tackle any issue in your home with ease.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And for homeowners thinking more about safety inside and outside of their home, smart home devices have got you covered. Tech like motion detectors, cameras, video doorbells and remote control locks give you complete control over your home. You can monitor indoor and outdoor movement and double check that your front door is locked all from your smartphone. It\u2019s perfect for when you need peace of mind before falling asleep or if you want to check on the kids activities while you work in your office.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Environmental concerns are another major issue for our society, and as homeowners look to reduce their carbon footprint (and their utility bill), many are turning to technology to help them accomplish their goals. Smart thermostats allow you to control air flow more precisely and turn off the A.C. when it\u2019s not needed. Other devices like temperature and humidity controls make sure the climate of your home is correct, preventing costly issues like mold growth or foundation cracks that can occur from long-term humidity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For more information on the top <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hippo.com\/blog\/smart-home-devices\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">smart home tech for a better home<\/a>, including predictions on how the smart home market will grow in the coming years, check out the infographic below from Hippo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hippo.com\/sites\/default\/files\/content\/paragraphs\/inline\/Smart-Home-Tech-IG-Hippo.jpeg\" width=\"550\" height=\"4539\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hippo.com\/blog\/smart-home-devices\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">11 Key Smart Home Devices for A Streamlined and Efficient Home<\/a> by Sarah Hollenbeck | Siege Media<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home updates have been very popular throughout the coronavirus pandemic.
