6 Things That Should Be in Every Modern Home

Having a dishwasher or refrigerator no longer surprises anyone, so manufacturers are focusing on high technology and functionality. Household appliances should be stylish, make our lives easier, and also save money and time.

Range Hood

Modern models are beautiful, powerful, and don't have to be installed above the cooktop. A range hood can be built into the side of it or even hidden flush with the countertop if needed.

Some range hoods come equipped with smart sensors that monitor the burners, heat level, and notify the homeowner via smartphone when they're not home.

Wireless Switches

They are compatible with any type of lightbulbs, can be programmed for different lighting modes, and can be controlled from anywhere in the apartment using a remote or voice assistant like Alice.

Another advantage is that you don't need to cut grooves in the walls for installation. The switch simply plugs into a wall box and operates on batteries.

Inverter Air Conditioner

A must-have for modern homes. Working silently, it cools the air twice as fast as regular air conditioners and significantly saves electricity. These units can also be controlled remotely so that the room is already cooled by the time you arrive.

Compact Water Heater

Storage water heaters are no longer bulky or unattractive. Modern models, such as the Andis Lux Ariston, easily fit into a kitchen cabinet. Their capacity is sufficient to wash dishes after a large dinner.

Smart Mixers

These mixers not only care about water quality but also help save water usage. Modern models feature aerators that increase the flow volume using air, motion sensors that turn on the water when hands approach, and thermostats to set your preferred temperature without waiting for the water to cool down.

Smart Refrigerator

Refrigerator functions have long gone beyond just keeping food cold. They can maintain different temperatures on various shelves, control humidity levels, prevent frost formation, and do all this without consuming too much electricity.

More advanced models can even serve as a cookbook or family organizer thanks to their built-in computer.
