HomeWorks QS 速
Save energy with unparalleled total home control
HomeWorks QS ÂŽ
HomeWorks has been the leader in light control for exclusive homes for over a decade. And now, we’ve taken that light control to a new level— total home control. This level of control includes lights, shades, HVAC, sensors, and appliances and incorporates a variety of new products, such as sensors, a temperature control, and a dynamic keypad.
HomeWorks QS offers increased energy savings, is a more powerful system, is easier to install, and provides greater integration capabilities than before. With HomeWorks QS, you can offer your customers a system that works harder and smarter to bring energy savings to their homes without having to sacrifice comfort and convenience.
The power of Quantum
速
Quantum was developed to meet the challenges of creating systems that can scale to accommodate thousands of lighting zones and thousands of shades in buildings that are often in use 24 hours a day. Using the Quantum architecture in HomeWorks速 QS provides for powerful control over daylight and electric light, from small systems through large applications. The new architecture provides large-scale processing power and easier communications wiring, along with powerful design, programming, and documentation software to make your project workflow easier and faster. The New York Times Building uses Quantum and saves over 70% light energy.

Energy-saving features Every time you dim your lights you save energy. Dim them by 25%, for example, and you’ll save 20% energy. The more you dim, the more you save. While a HomeWorks QS system provides the energy-saving benefits of dimming, it also provides other energy-saving benefits, too.
Occupancy sensing Sensors turn off the lights when the room is empty and can save up to 20% lighting energy. Occupied: On

Energy-efficient light control Lutron leads the industry in control of high-efficacy light sources, including LED and fluorescent. Our Hi-lume® A-Series LED driver provides the ultimate dimming performance for LED fixtures from popular OEM fixture brands.
Temperature control The perfect complement to light and shade control, temperature control gives you the ability to adjust heating and cooling systems any time of day. This can save up to 16% or more on heating and cooling costs.
Appliance control Save energy by turning off standby power to A/V equipment and computers—via keypads, sensors, or the system timeclock. Standby power can amount to 10% of a typical home’s electricity use.

Shades In summer, close shades to block the sun, which will reduce cooling costs. In winter, open shades to let daylight warm your home—then close them in the evening to retain the heat. Doing so can save 10% on heating and cooling costs. “Green” button Use the “green” button to save energy by controlling lights, shades and temperature with a single touch.
Scheduling The timeclock can be programmed to automatically dim or turn off lights in spaces where lights are often inadvertently left on.
“All Off’ button Place a keypad with an “All Off” button near an entry to conveniently turn off all of the lights throughout the home with a single touch.

NEW Venetian blinds with Intelligent Tilt Alignment™ technology Venetian blinds are an attractive and effective way to ensure privacy, while still allowing sunlight to filter a space. Only Lutron® Venetians with Intelligent Tilt Alignment can offer precision alignment of both tilt and lift position between multiple shades for the finest aesthetic. Create the right light in a space with the ability to smoothly control tilt independent of lift or by simply recalling a favorite preset. Available in over 60 colors; custom matching also available.

Kirbe™ vertical drapery system An industry first, the Kirbé vertical drapery system smoothly pulls fabric up and completely out of the way. The unique design of the Kirbé provides greater access to windows and views by eliminating stack back—the mass of fabric that gathers as traditional draperies are opened.
Roman shades with CERUS™ safety technology Lutron has revolutionized the design of Roman shades by introducing CERUS (Cord Eliminating Roman Uptake System) safety technology. This patent-pending innovation creates a safer shade by removing the exposed inner cords that are typical of Roman shade construction—and which may pose a strangulation hazard to small children.
Tensioned shades Tensioned shades combine electronic drive technology with a new tension system that eliminates the stress on the surrounding structure when installed. Fabric is kept taut regardless of slope, making it a perfect solution for skylights, bottom-up, or angled window applications.
