Savant’s 2025 Updates Raise the Bar in Luxury Home Automation

Your Greenwich estate deserves technology that works as elegantly as it looks. Savant's 2025 updates deliver three new capabilities that provide luxury homeowners with new home automation options: professional-grade GE lighting that installs without architectural disruption, native Siri voice control that actually understands you, and smart power management that minimizes costly electrical upgrades. At Phoenix Audio Video, we're excited about these new features and the possibilities they bring to home automation.

GE Lighting

For the first time ever, Savant brings the GE brand into the professionally installed residential market with GE Proseo lighting and shading solutions. This smart lighting is purpose-built for luxury installations where aesthetics matter as much as performance.

Proseo keypads, dimmers, and panelized lighting deliver exceptional light quality with the flexibility to create perfect ambiance in any space. Proseo lighting solutions operate on Savant’s Sage Wi-Fi, Sage Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and the newly integrated Sage Low Frequency (LF) networks, offering versatile integration and installation options with minimal disruption. 

Proseo motorized shades complement the lighting with modern aesthetics that conceal wires and hardware, performance fabrics, and unmatched control options—perfect for the growing demand for floor-to-ceiling windows and window walls that define contemporary luxury design.

Native Siri Integration: Voice Control 

Savant becomes the first whole-home automation provider to offer native Siri voice control, and the difference is immediately apparent. Instead of shouting robotic commands at your smart home, you can speak naturally: "Siri, I'm heading to bed." It automatically dims lights, locks doors, adjusts thermostats, and arms security systems.

This integration works across your Apple ecosystem—iPhone, CarPlay, iPad, Apple Watch, and HomePod. Start a movie scene from your car as you pull into the driveway. Adjust your home's temperature from your Apple Watch during your evening walk. The system interprets natural language commands through Apple Shortcuts, making automation feel intuitive rather than technical.

Previous voice control systems required memorizing specific phrases and dealing with frequent misunderstandings. Savant's native Siri integration eliminates that frustration, delivering sophisticated and secure voice control that works the way you actually speak.

Scenes That Adapt to Your Life

One thing Savant’s always been known for is scene capabilities. You can easily create custom environments that orchestrate lighting, climate, audio, and security with a single command. "Movie Night" dims lights, lowers shades, adjusts temperature, and cues your sound system. "Good Morning" gradually brightens lights, opens shades, starts your favorite playlist, and displays the weather on your screens. And you can now call up those scenes with Siri or through more sophisticated voice systems like Josh.ai. 

The power lies in user control—modify scenes anytime through the intuitive Savant app without calling your integrator. Add new devices, adjust timing, or create entirely new scenes as your lifestyle evolves. This flexibility keeps your automation relevant and personal.

Smart Power Management

Adding an EV charger, electric appliances, or pool heating typically requires costly electrical service upgrades that run thousands of dollars. Savant Smart Budget offers a smarter alternative that doesn’t require extensive electrical revamping. 

Power modules integrate into your existing electrical panel while intelligent software regulates output to ensure demand never exceeds your home's capacity. Through the Savant app, prioritize power usage on demand or schedule energy allocation. Monitor live consumption, shed unnecessary loads, and balance usage within your current electrical service.

For Greenwich properties with extensive automation, pool systems, and multiple EV chargers, this level of intelligent power management translates to substantial utility savings while supporting modern electrification without infrastructure upheaval.

With these new features, Savant continues to lead the way in advanced home automation with practical solutions to help manage sophisticated homes and busy lifestyles.
