A smarter home is a safer home

P.Tech quartz stone

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, people are focusing more on their family’s health and safety.

This is why some homeowners have started upgrading their homes, keeping them clean and frequently disinfecting surfaces such as doorknobs, toilets, sinks and faucets. Others meanwhile are turning their dwellings into smart homes, using products with touchless technology. Such products are seen to help solve our concerns over safety and health. My favorite home retail partner, Wilcon Depot, offers such products that will help make your homes safer and more hygienic.

Install sensor lights to help eliminate several areas of touchpoints and decrease the potential spread of germs at home. Alphalux lighting solutions offer motion sensor lights which would turn on automatically when movement is detected within the 180-degree sensing range from up to 27 feet away. Alphalux sensor lights can also last up to 15,000 hours.

Choose an airconditioning unit that will not only keep your homes cool but at the same time can keep your air clean. Kaze aircons have superior quality filters that can guarantee cleaner air and eliminate air pollutants and other smaller particles. It has inverter split type aircons that are energy-saving, economical and environment-friendly.

Choose the right material for your countertop. Quartz stone is the most practical choice if you want to improve hygiene and cleanliness at home. P.Tech countertops are tough, durable and made of premium quartz with high strength and impact resistance. With non-porous surface and low water absorption rating, quartz countertops are stain-resistant and hygienic, helping prevent the growth of molds and bacteria on the slab’s surface.
