Lutron Lighting Control allows Smart Home owners to regulate the light in their homes to make life in a Smart Home a smarter and more comfortable experience. Light control allows owners to manage a home's light quality in any area of that home. In addition, light control saves energy because lighting is used to maximum advantage and only where it is needed. Light control used to maximum advantage can make a home more beautiful, more comfortable, and more secure.

Lutron light control utilizes dimmer switches. This is because every room in every home does not need the same amount of light at every hour of the day. Depending on the weather and where the area is in the home that is being lit, natural light changes from minute to minute. In most homes, lights are either on or off. The amount of light emitted by the light fixtures is always the same. When a dimmer switch is used, the home owner has the ability to change the light in the room which changes the mood of the room. Perhaps, for practical reasons, such as reading or handiwork, the homeowner wants maximum lighting. To set the mood for a romantic dinner, or relaxing in front of the TV, or computer use, dimmer lighting might be preferable. And dimmer lighting saves energy.
