About this solution
For a shop or cafe, every day begins and ends the same way: someone opens up, switches on the lights and the sign, starts the climate system, checks the fridges, and in the evening runs the whole routine in reverse. CasaSmart builds automation for HoReCa venues and small retail that takes over exactly these routines. We program open and close routines tied to the venue's real schedule: in the morning the sales lighting, display cases and exterior sign come up gradually, the climate reaches a comfortable temperature before the first customer arrives, and at closing everything drops into economy mode with a single tap or automatically after a set hour. Presence sensors switch off light in the stockroom, office or restroom when no one is there, so staff never have to think about it.
For control we install Shelly relays and switches (we are an official Shelly distributor) on the lighting circuits, the sign and the technical sockets, plus energy monitoring on the important lines — so you can see how much the climate, fridges and lighting each draw separately, not just one number on the bill. The climate is tied in through thermostats and IR or Wi-Fi control, with schedules by day and by zone, so you are not cooling or heating an empty room overnight. Everything comes together in one dashboard, reachable from the manager's phone whether they are on site or at home.
We treat security as a separate, serious layer. We mount and integrate Imou cameras for the floor, the till, the entrance and the stockroom, with local recording and remote viewing, and an Ajax alarm system against break-ins, with motion detectors, door contacts and sirens. For staff we add Anviz access control on the service or stockroom door — time tracking and access by code, card or fingerprint, so you know who entered and when, with no lost keys. The alarm and access can be linked to the closing scenes: you arm the venue and the interior lights go off, leaving only the security lighting.
We work local-first and brand-true: the core of the automation — open/close routines, lighting scenes, climate schedules — runs on a local hub (usually Home Assistant) over Zigbee, Matter, Thread, Wi-Fi, BLE and IR, so the basic functions can keep working locally even if the internet drops. The consultation is free; the on-site visit and the detailed technical design are paid services, and equipment cost comes from the catalog. For Shelly, Ecowitt, LOQED, LightSolutions, NEO and TopAC we are an official distributor; the other brands (Imou, Ajax, Anviz and others) we install and integrate properly, with no exclusivity claims.
Yes, mostly. The core runs on a local hub (usually Home Assistant) over Zigbee, Matter, Thread and Wi-Fi, so lighting routines, climate and presence sensors can keep working locally. Remote access and phone notifications need internet, but the basic on-site functions do not stop.
The consultation is free. The final cost depends on floor area, number of circuits, cameras and access doors, so we estimate it per project after an on-site visit. The visit and the detailed technical design are paid services, and equipment prices (Shelly, Imou, Ajax, Anviz) are visible directly in the catalog.
Yes. Each location has its own local hub, and the manager sees them all in one phone app: lighting, climate, energy use, cameras and alarm status. You can compare consumption across sites and get separate alerts for each — useful for a small chain of cafes or shops in Chișinău and other cities.
For Shelly, Ecowitt, LOQED, LightSolutions, NEO and TopAC we are an official distributor in Moldova. For Imou cameras, Ajax alarms and Anviz access control we do not claim exclusivity — we install and integrate them properly into your system, choosing the right equipment for each venue and making sure it works together with the rest of the automation.
At closing, a single routine shuts the floor, moves the climate to economy mode, switches off non-essential sockets and leaves only the security lighting. The Ajax alarm arms and the Imou cameras keep recording. If motion appears after hours, you get a notification and a video clip on your phone so you can check immediately what is happening.
