The newest tech to save you money in your home

At the Ideal Home Show, our aim is to help you create a home and garden that is both functional, stylish and comfortable for you and your loved ones. This year, we are placing particular focus on money-saving, and how making small changes within your home can help you save money on your living costs and electricity bills.

We've got Money-Saving Expert Martin Lewis, the Expert Advice Hub, The Smart Home, and two beautiful life sized Show Homes, including the Money Making Home by Framtio sponsored by Sky Glass, decked out with all the latest technology that can help you save on your bills. Here's a sneak peak on some of the tech we will be featuring in the home...

• Sky Glass TV - Take things to the next level,  Not just a style statement, Sky Glass has all the best tech built in.​ So no dish, no box and no messy wires. ​
• DELTA Pro -​ The DELTA Pro is the world's first portable home battery with an expandable ecosystem for home backup, smart energy management, lower energy bills, and more. With a 3600W AC output in a single unit, it can power 99.99% of heavy-duty devices at home, outdoors, or at work.​
• 400W Solar Panels - The universally compatible, 400W solar panel balances design with robust materials allowing the panel to weather any storm while offering a high conversion efficiency rate of up to 23%. This high-wattage panel works for both on-grid and off-grid solar-powered setups, charging your LFP batteries faster than similar-sized solar panels.​
• Ultion Nuki Pro is a premium smart lock that can be locked and unlocked from anywhere in the world. Engineered for British homes, it’s only visible on the inside and features the highest levels of physical and digital protection. Unlike other smart locks, it can also be used with a key.​
• HIVE - Hive launched in 2013 and is one of the top smart thermostat providers in the UK with 1.8 million customers and counting. Our Hive Active Heating product range and other services help customers manage their energy use, enabling them to lower their carbon footprint. Hive focuses on making everyday life easier, freeing people up to spend time doing the things they love. ​
• Ninja Airfryer - Air-fryers cook food fast at a really high temperature with a fan. A typical air-fryer (1,000W) costs just 34p per hour, which is roughly the same wattage and energy consumption as a conventional oven, but it heats up quickly and you can cook meals in a fraction of the time, making it a great value method.
