Control4 Partners With Sub-Zero and Wolf
Control4 can now connect to Sub-Zero and Wolf high-end kitchen appliances for convenience, energy savings and the perfect meal every time
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 5, 2011 /PRNewswire - CES 2011 - January 6-9, 2011 - LVCC South 21407 -- a leader in affordable IP-based control and entertainment systems, today announced its partnership with Sub-Zero, Inc. and Wolf Appliance, Inc., industry leaders in premium refrigeration and cooking appliances.
Control4 collaborates with third-party manufacturers to design products that integrate with the Control4® platform. Through this new partnership, Sub-Zero® refrigerators, Wolf® ovens, and Sub-Zero® wine storage units can be integrated into Control4 networks, resulting in unprecedented benefits from being able to manage appliances through a Control4 system.
"The connected home isn't just about consumer electronics gadgets -- every appliance and service should be easily accessed and managed through any touch point in the house. There is no better example of this new reality than this partnership," stated Control4's CEO Will West.
In a Control4 digital home, eco-conscious homeowners can program Sub-Zero freezers and refrigerators to maximize energy efficiency by automatically setting ice-making production and other energy-intensive functions to lower levels at different times of the day. Homeowners can also automatically adjust settings to accommodate specific lifestyle needs, such as increasing ice production prior to entertaining large numbers of guests. Users also have the option to receive alerts that allow them to manage and monitor energy usage. For the first time, homeowners can send energy deferral requests or general service requests through their Control4 system directly to Sub-Zero and Wolf.
"Sub-Zero and Wolf products are known for their cutting-edge design and performance," said Michele Bedard, Vice President, Marketing for Sub-Zero and Wolf. "This partnership is another extension of our capabilities that allows us to fit into the lifestyle of our customer and do our part to be even more energy efficient."
When integrating select Wolf products into their Control4 system, homeowners can be notified when pre-heat is complete, view the current oven temperature, receive alerts when the timer is almost finished, and access meat temperature from the internal meat thermometer.
With the Control4 platform, Sub-Zero wine storage unit owners can monitor their unit's door status and even receive-mail or text message alerts when a door opens or closes. Since temperature and humidity are critical elements to storing the perfect bottle of wine, collectors are assured that their wine unit door has been properly shut and air is not entering or exiting. These alerts also provide a new level of monitoring should anyone enter the wine unit without permission.
Examples of Sub-Zero and Wolf's integration with the Control4 platform will be on display in the Control4 booth during the CES 2011 show.
