The Objective

To create a sophisticated and comfortable guest experience through intelligent control of lighting and HVAC, while enabling centralized management, energy efficiency, and effortless operation for hotel staff and facility management teams.

The Solution

A KNX-based automation system was implemented across key hotel areas, providing precise lighting control, smooth dimming, and integrated HVAC management. The solution was designed to operate seamlessly alongside the wider Building Management System through Netx Automation, ensuring reliable performance and simplified day to day operations.

Key Highlights

• Integrated KNX automation for hospitality environments
• Centralized lighting and HVAC control
• Intelligent lighting scenes enhancing public areas
• Leviton occupancy sensors supporting energy efficiency
• Integration with BMS via Netx Automation
• Intuitive touch panel interfaces for hotel operations teams
