Energy & smart home

A house that
produces and decides

Solar, rainwater, ventilation and local control: Casa Viva designs homes that are autonomous, frugal and repairable.

Six flows

The house as an organism

Nothing arrives by chance: energy, water and air travel along short, visible, maintainable paths.

  • Photovoltaics

    Exposed roof, local batteries: the house's electricity is born on site.

  • Solar thermal

    Hot water and underfloor heating powered by the sun, even at altitude.

  • Rainwater

    Collection, filtration and buried tank: roof water irrigates the garden and feeds the toilets.

  • Phytoremediation

    Reeds and planted basins treat wastewater without chemicals.

  • Double-flow ventilation

    Pre-warmed fresh air, regulated humidity, no needless losses.

  • Masonry stove

    One long burn, gentle heat released by the stone's thermal mass.

Smart home

Three tiers, one principle: the house stays yours

Home automation is offered as an option and connects to an open installation. You choose the degree of automation, never the dependency.

No cloud is mandatory: the house keeps working if the internet stops.

Essential

Basic comfort, controlled without a cloud.

  • Lighting and blinds by room
  • Temperature and humidity sensors
  • Local wall-screen control
  • Manual mode takes priority

Comfort

The house anticipates your routines.

  • Morning, away and evening scenes
  • Solar and battery management
  • Irrigation and tank following the rain
  • Leak and air-quality alerts

Full

Everything is monitored, nothing depends on a distant server.

  • Room-by-room energy monitoring
  • Predictive equipment maintenance
  • Encrypted remote access, optional
  • Local backup and restore

Control

Four rules to stay free

A smart home must be repairable by a local craftsperson, with no subscription and no vendor account.

  • Open protocols

    Zigbee, KNX or Matter: devices can be replaced without redoing the installation.

  • No mandatory cloud

    Scenes live in the house, not with a provider.

  • Local backup

    The configuration is exported and kept offline, restored in minutes.

  • Manual mode

    Every function remains usable by hand, switch by switch.
