Schneider Electric, a global leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, announced a partnership with Sendal, the most intelligent home solution that learns and adapts to occupant behaviors, to address indoor air quality in today’s extremely energy efficient homes.
By boosting insulation and practically eliminating air gaps, energy-efficient homes have come a long way in decreasing heat loss. While this is advantageous for temperature regulation and lowering energy costs connected with heating and cooling, this almost airtight design may have the unexpected consequence of significantly harming interior air quality.
The Sendal Breathe solution provides maximum flexibility for adapting ventilation strategies to deliver improved breathable air to homeowners for better day-to-day living by combining digital air quality management via the Sendal intelligent home app and electronic control of the ventilation system via the Square D® X Series Connected Wiring Devices.
“At Sendal, we are excited to be working with Schneider Electric, a digital technology leader in smart, sustainable home innovation,” Sendal Founder and CEO Jim Carroll stated.
“The suite of Sendal software solutions leverages Schneider Electric’s best-in-class products to deliver a competitive advantage to home builders by helping them deliver healthier, more energy-efficient homes.”
“A truly smart, sustainable home provides an optimal environment for the homeowner, from the control and resiliency of the electricity powering the home, to the quality of the air inside that home,” remarked Bradford Wills, Schneider Electric’s Director Of Strategic Customers & Programs, Home & Distribution US.
“By collaborating with Sendal, we are supporting innovations that will help address challenges around the home to support home builders in delivering a better experience for homeowners.”
Building codes and better home building practices demand homes to be more airtight in order to save energy and provide more comfort; nevertheless, the unintended effect might be harmful indoor air quality. Sendal’s autonomous home platform is the first solution designed exclusively for energy-efficient home builders.
Sendal is a free service for builders that utilizes best-in-class technology partners, such as Schneider Electric’s award-winning Square DTM Energy Center and X Series Connected Wiring Devices, to provide transparency and increased digital control of home energy resources.
