3 Simple Electrical Upgrades For Convenience

Posted December 6, 2016

To make your home more convenient and energy-efficient, consider simple electrical upgrades like occupancy sensors, bath fan timers, and USB outlets. These practical additions improve daily life by automating tasks, reducing energy waste, and supporting modern tech needs. Let’s explore these upgrades and how they can transform your home.

1. Occupancy Sensors

Occupancy sensors are a fantastic way to automate lighting in your home. These devices detect motion to turn lights on automatically when someone enters a room and off when the room is empty. They’re especially useful for families with children or pets and for those who frequently forget to turn off the lights. Occupancy sensors can be installed in bedrooms, bathrooms, hallways, and even closets for added convenience and energy savings.

  • Benefits: Saves energy by eliminating unnecessary lighting usage.
  • Where to Install: High-traffic areas, entryways, and rooms where lights are often left on.

2. Bath Fan Timers

Bath fan timers are an excellent way to prevent energy waste while ensuring proper ventilation. These timers automatically shut off your bathroom fan after a set period, preventing it from running excessively and venting out heated or cooled air unnecessarily. This upgrade is a simple but effective way to save energy and maintain a comfortable home environment.

  • Benefits: Conserves energy and prevents wear and tear on your fan.
  • Where to Install: Bathrooms and laundry rooms for effective moisture control.

3. USB Outlets

USB outlets are a modern solution for charging multiple devices without needing extra adapters. These outlets look like standard power outlets but include additional USB ports for charging phones, tablets, and laptops. With USB outlets installed, you can streamline device charging and reduce clutter from traditional chargers.

  • Benefits: Convenient charging for multiple devices without additional adapters.
  • Where to Install: Kitchens, home offices, bedrooms, and living rooms.
