Jacob Evans • June 1, 2023

Interest in well-connected kitchens has skyrocketed among homeowners in Pittsburgh, PA. Technological innovations have made kitchens easier to use, more efficient and more enjoyable. Smart appliances are a main feature of a technologically savvy kitchen. Ovens, dishwashers, refrigerators, coffee makers, countertop appliances, faucets and steam and microwave ovens offer Bluetooth connectivity that can be operated remotely from a smart phone or tablet and by voice command through Amazon Alexa, Siri or Google Assistant. You can have your kitchen appliances recommend recipes based on ingredients in your fridge and pantry, play music during meal preparation and dining, set timers and preheat ovens on your way home.

WIFI connectivity also provides homeowners in Pittsburgh, PA with upgrade opportunities that previously were unimaginable such as adding air frying capability to an existing oven. Another reason why smart appliances are being specified for many new kitchens in Pittsburgh, PA are safety features that include automatic shutoffs for ovens and cooktops, notifications that a refrigerator door was left ajar, automatic ordering of groceries and dishwasher detergent when supplies are low or automatic notifications when service is required. 

Smart lighting is becoming a staple in new kitchens in Pittsburgh, PA as well. Lights can be controlled from a smart phone or tablet or voice activated, which allows homeowners to adjust lighting levels, brightness and color. 

Smart pantries and refrigerators alert homeowners in Pittsburgh, PA when food stuffs near their expiration dates and when inventory levels require reordering.
