New England is prone to days-long electric outages, and Westport, CT, has not been immune. These outages are usually due to fierce storms and the resulting downed trees affecting power lines.

There are, however, other concerns, including having enough electricity to go around during the most extreme weather events, whether hot summer months or frigid winters. ISO New England, which oversees the entire grid, reported to Fox61 that extreme weather days will be a concern until more renewable energy sources are developed. 

The result may be similar to what people in Texas and California have experienced: planned rolling blackouts to keep the grid from failing.

Fortunately, there is a way to keep your home operating during our current energy crisis. Home energy solutions help you better manage your power through energy dashboards, storage and automation. 

Let's explore a few of the benefits and features of advanced home energy management solutions.

While having been growing in popularity for some time, extending our outdoor spaces became the deciding trend in home upgrades in 2022. These spaces aren't just for the summer months but are instead a multi-functional extension, a place to enjoy the beauty of nature year-round and the best in entertainment. 

Like home theaters and media rooms, these exterior upgrades become one of the favorite areas of the home—the place to watch movies, enjoy the big game, or listen to summer playlists as we lounge by the pool. Creating the perfect outdoor entertainment setting requires TVs and music systems designed for the outdoors and landscape lights that create an intriguing ambiance long into the night.

Let’s explore the possibilities and how these spaces transform homes and entertainment in Westchester County, NY.

Good lighting in a home transforms a space, setting the desired mood while allowing you to perform the many tasks accompanying the day. It aligns ambient, task, and accent lighting to create a space of intrigue and draw the eye to your home’s best architectural features.

Great lighting considers the quality and color of the light and its profound effect on our well-being. It assesses how it affects our moods, emotions, and physiological responses.
