CEDIA OREM, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vantage/Legrand, a leading provider of home automation solutions for luxury residences and a registered provider for the American Institute of Architects Continuing Educations System (AIA/CES), will introduce a training course on sustainable design at CEDIA in September. The course, titled Sustainable Design: Green Buildings through Automation, will demonstrate how including automation into building design will promote resource conservation without sacrificing convenience, elegance and functionality. “As one of the pioneers in residential lighting control and a leader in home automation systems, Vantage/Legrand has been contributing to residential energy conservation for more than 20 years,” said Ben de Hoyos, Vantage/Legrand director of Training. “It’s safe to say that we were providing sustainable design and conservation solutions before it was considered to be the cool or fashionable thing to do.” “With the use of dimmers, sensors, timers and smart programming, Vantage/Legrand can help homeowners harvest daylight, optimize their living climate and increase energy efficiency,” said de Hoyos. The class will be held on September 4th at the Hyatt Regency in Denver, Colo. Those attending can earn credit toward AIA continuing education requirements and is open to all registered CEDIA attendees. There is no additional charge to attend this class for AIA/CES credit.
