SPRING GROVE, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 11, 2004--Intermatic Inc. announced today the availability of a professional-grade intelligent home control product line.

Known as the Intermatic HomeSettings Professional Series, the products use Zensys Z-Wave technology for upscale residential and commercial lighting and environmental control.

"Intelligent home controls are a popular field. According to the technology research company ABI, the home controls industry is growing at a rate of 18 percent annually," says Jeff Bovee, commercial marketing manager with Intermatic Inc. "With intelligent home controls, you can automate your lights, security systems, HVAC (heating and cooling), entertainment centers, major appliances and consumer electronics without lifting a finger."

So what does this mean for electrical contractors, residential developers and their customers? A reliable, flexible home control system that is simple to install, easy to expand and maintenance free. Best of all, the introductory pricing on the 'basic' HomeSettings Professional package will make it very attractive to electrical contractors, residential developers and their customers.

That's all the info I have, it's a copy of their press release, maybe their site has some info, I haven't looked it up yet, they definitely got some nice hardware now.
 
When you see phrases like "for upscale residential...", you get a hint that this will probably be expensive! ;)
