Protecting Your Property from the Alpine Winter—Remotely & Cost-Effectively
Beyond mold prevention, owning a property in a heavy-snow region like Hakuba involves unique risks. SmartHome provides a unified, English-language solution to manage these risks from anywhere in the world.
1. Preventing Catastrophic Pipe Bursts
The Challenge: In Hakuba, temperatures often drop below -10°C. If the heating fails or is forgotten, pipes can freeze and burst, leading to thousands of dollars in water damage and emergency repairs.
The SmartHome Solution: * Temp/Humidity Sensors: Real-time monitoring of indoor temperature.
Automated Alerts: Receive an instant notification on your smartphone if the temperature drops below a "danger zone" (e.g., 5°C).
Remote Heating Control: Use the IR Controller to turn on the floor heating or AC immediately from your phone, no matter where you are.
2. Eliminating "Empty House" Energy Waste
The Challenge: Electricity prices in Japan have risen significantly. Guests often leave heaters on at max power after checking out, leading to astronomical utility bills.
The SmartHome Solution:
PIR Motion Sensors: Detect if the property is truly occupied.
Smart Automation: Set "Scenarios" to automatically lower the temperature or turn off lights and appliances if no motion is detected for a specific period (e.g., 4 hours).
3. Remote Security & Intrusion Detection
The Challenge: Many Hakuba chalets sit empty for months. Owners worry about unauthorized entry, or even doors/windows being left slightly ajar by cleaners or guests, letting in snow and freezing air.
The SmartHome Solution:
Door/Window Contact Sensors: Get an alert the second a door or window is opened.
Status Check: Check the "Open/Closed" status of every entry point via the app before you go to sleep in your home country.
4. Emergency Assistance for Guests
The Challenge: If you rent your property out, ensuring guest safety is a priority. In case of an accident or medical emergency in a remote snowy area, guests may struggle to find local contact info.
The SmartHome Solution:
Smart Panic Button: Install a physical button near the bed or in the living area. When pressed, it sends an instant SOS alert to the owner’s and manager’s smartphones, ensuring a rapid response.
