Automation that feels built in.
Designed for comfort, energy, security and simplicity.
Inteto is a Loxone Silver Partner based in Brighton, specialising in premium Loxone automation across Sussex. The result is comfort, convenience and smarter control without turning your building into a science project. New to Loxone? Think of it as the building’s local "brain" for lighting, climate, shading and energy.
Smart home control without the app overload.
Most smart homes become a messy collection of apps, bridges and workarounds. Loxone gives the building one automation backbone, so lighting, heating, shading, energy, audio and security signals can work together instead of behaving like separate gadgets.
One building brain
The Miniserver coordinates the logic locally, so everyday behaviours like scenes, presence, schedules and overrides feel built in rather than bolted on.
Normal to use
Wall controls still make sense. The app is there when needed, but family, guests and staff should not need a lesson just to operate the space.
Designed around outcomes
Comfort, convenience, simpler operation and better visibility. Not gimmicks, gadget clutter or another technology headache.
New to Loxone? Start with the plain English version: what it is, why it matters, and when it is the right strategic choice.
Loxone installation across Sussex.
Inteto is based in Brighton, East Sussex. We design, install, commission and support Loxone smart home and building automation for homes and workplaces across Sussex, including Brighton, Hove, Worthing, Shoreham, Lancing, Lewes, Haywards Heath, Horsham and nearby areas.
Brighton + Hove
Local scoping for Loxone projects, renovations, extensions and workplace automation where lighting, climate, shading and energy need to work as one system.
East Sussex
Loxone automation for residential and commercial spaces, with sensible integration around heating, blinds, alarms, CCTV, EV charging and energy visibility.
West Sussex
Structured design, clear commissioning and ongoing support for projects where reliability and simple everyday use matter more than gadget clutter.
Secure by design.
Loxone is built as a closed, local automation platform. Your core functions keep running even if the internet doesn’t.
Local, resilient control
- Runs locally, with no cloud dependency for everyday operation
- Predictable behaviour with proper commissioning
- Updates and changes are deliberate, not automatic surprises
Wired performance
- Wired peripherals where it matters: fast, reliable response
- Instant scene changes and low latency controls
- Less reliance on RF, which means fewer “why didn’t it trigger?” moments
Why not just use Alexa, Apple Home, Google Home or Home Assistant?
They all have a place. The important bit is choosing the right layer for the right job and keeping smart speakers as convenience controls rather than the system foundation.
Voice assistants and app ecosystems
Apple Home, Google Home and Alexa are useful for voice control, simple scenes and quick access to compatible devices. Existing Echo, Google Nest or HomePod devices can often sit on top of a Loxone design.
Home Assistant, Homey and similar platforms
Great for enthusiasts, dashboards and unusual integrations, but they usually need ongoing technical ownership.
Loxone
The right fit when lighting, heating, shading, energy and everyday building behaviour need to work reliably as one local system.
Already have smart speakers? We can usually assess how Echo, Google Home/Nest, Apple HomePod or Siri can fit as a voice control layer, while Loxone keeps the important building logic local and reliable.
Loxone vs other smart home platforms.
Most smart building frustration comes from choosing the wrong platform as the foundation. Loxone is our primary platform: it is automation-first, built around lighting, climate, shading and energy, with core logic running locally for predictable everyday operation. Other systems can still have a role, but as supporting layers rather than the core backbone. Our approach is simple: design the building services around Loxone, then integrate voice, AV, security, CCTV, solar, EV or other systems where they add practical value.
Choose Loxone when…
- Lighting, climate and shading are the priority
- You want reliable automation that feels built in
- You care about resilience and predictable behaviour
Use an AV layer when…
- The project includes serious AV, media or cinema requirements
- You want a polished entertainment control layer alongside the building controls
- You’re investing heavily in multi room audio/video
Lighting that just works.
Scenes, schedules and sensible automation, with proper physical controls so anyone can use it.
Convenience
- One-tap scenes: Morning, Evening, Away, Entertain
- Presence-based lighting in circulation areas
- Central “All Off” and night routes
Efficiency
- Daylight dimming where it makes sense
- Auto-off that respects occupants (no nuisance)
- Time-based strategies for out-of-hours
Comfort, with smarter control.
Heating and cooling strategies designed to manage unnecessary runtime while keeping the space comfortable.
- Zoning so you’re not heating (or cooling) unused areas
- Setbacks that protect comfort rather than chasing extremes
- Schedules based on how the building is actually used
- Overrides that are simple and predictable
For workplaces this often means fewer “set-and-forget” setpoints and more control around occupancy and hours.
Shading that prevents problems.
Use sunlight intelligently: manage glare, limit overheating risk and support the wider comfort strategy.
- Sun-position logic (not crude timers)
- Room-based glare and heat strategies
- Weather-aware routines where appropriate
- Manual control always available
- Scenes that coordinate lighting + shading
- Improved comfort and stability
Energy visibility, not guesswork.
If you can’t see it, you can’t manage it. We add the right level of metering and reporting to make usage visible and easier to investigate.
- Out-of-hours consumption flags
- Anomaly alerts when something drifts
- Simple dashboards for facilities teams
- Solar PV and battery visibility where fitted
- Heat pump integration (ASHP/GSHP): hot water scheduling, flow temperature governance and coordinated control (where supported)
- EV charging: “ready by” scheduling, solar surplus and load management (where supported)
- Octopus Agile tariff integration: use half hour pricing as an input for load scheduling and charging control (subject to scope)
This is where opportunities to manage energy use can be identified and acted on consistently, not accidentally.
Workplaces: simpler, more manageable buildings.
Commercial automation is about managing unnecessary runtime whilst keeping occupants comfortable.
- After-hours shutdown with practical exceptions
- Meeting-room occupancy control for lighting and HVAC
- Daylight strategies that support more considered lighting control
- Alerts so issues can be spotted early
Why Loxone?
Because the right smart home is not a pile of apps. It is a building that quietly knows what to do: light the right spaces, manage comfort, provide visibility, protect the property and stay simple for the people using it.
