HOW DOES A PERSONAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE SYSTEM WORK? 

Picture a common scenario whereby a senior falls or cannot move for some reason. No one is there to help, and the senior cannot get to the phone to ask for help. This situation can be fatal, and this is where a PERS solution comes into play. 

A PERS essentially comprises an emergency distress signal. The device features a small radio transmitter and a console connected to the telephone. The transmitter essentially enables the user to use the telephone without picking up the actual phone. This is all powered by an emergency response center that monitors all calls made through the device. 

A senior in the situation discussed earlier will not be stuck if they have a PERS solution. The senior will only need to press a button to make a call to the emergency response center, a loved one, or any other emergency contact in their system. 

THE IMPORTANCE AND BENEFITS OF PERS 

A personal emergency response system is important because it can (and does) save lives. A quick response can mean the difference between life and death when a senior falls, and a PERS solution enables seniors to call for help immediately after an accident. Consequently, a PERS solution can save lives, which should be enough to get one.

CONTROL OVER YOUR PRIVACY

While getting natural light is important, so is privacy. Instead of using curtains, tapestry, and shutter blinds, you can opt to install a privacy glass, which is the best way to attain privacy, while also reducing congestion. With a switchable privacy glass window or door, you can change from plain to semi-transparent to opaque. For instance, when you hold a meeting to discuss an important issue concerning the company, you may need a more private and distraction-free environment. A privacy window or door can help.

Besides having privacy settings, smart window films can also help reduce or regulate the noise from the outside environment. This enables attendees to concentrate while also creating a quiet and conducive environment to hold a meeting effectively. With privacy glass, you can redefine the room in seconds with ease.

At home, even though you want a well-lit house that allows the morning sun to penetrate easily, your privacy should never be compromised. You can ensure this by installing privacy glass at your front door, bedroom, living room, dining room, media room, or window. You can switch from clear to opaque at different times of the day and vice versa.

CONTROL OVER ROOM TEMPERATURE AND LIGHT

High room temperatures and irritating glares can make you uncomfortable and lead to underperformance at work. If you are working in a position with direct sunlight, you may struggle when reading documents, thus having less productivity. With privacy windows, you can switch to opaque, which will not only reduce the room temperature by 60% but also block at least 98% of the UV rays. This will create a friendly working environment, which translates to high productivity.

Window films can also eliminate hot spots, thus preserving room temperature, which helps save energy. As a result, you can reduce the chances of your HVAC appliances wearing out.

SLOW INTERNET? IT COULD BE TIME TO UPGRADE

INTERNET OVERLOAD

It won't be long before children and college students will be back in school, although, unlike last year, they'll likely be able to attend in-person throughout the entire school year. Still, most students will need almost daily access to the internet for school-related activities.

College Students — Students who attend local community colleges are online almost every day, whether they enrolled in an online course or two (or more), or if they need to do research for a homework assignment. Even in-person classes require fast internet speeds to keep up with emails, postings from instructors, etc.

High School, Middle School, etc. — Children at every level, including elementary school, are likely to have assignments that require access to high-speed internet on a fairly regular basis. 

Adults — In the past year, many adults have switched from their corporate environment to working part-time or even full-time from home. Quite a few of the companies they work for are deciding to make these changes permanent. Of course, remote-working adults will still be expected to deliver high-quality results, even though their children may be using the same internet access this fall. 

Leisure Time — In addition to education-related internet access and work-related access, families still want to have plenty of leisure time online access as well. Now more than ever, many households are switching to streaming TV and movies, and they still want to have plenty of bandwidth available to access their favorite social media sites, check email, etc.
