Smart Accessories That Fit Naturally Into The Way You Use Your Home

Hunter has been building dependable comfort solutions since 1886, and our newest smart home accessories continue that same idea. These products are designed to help your lighting and ceiling fans work together without adding complexity. A smart light switch functions just like a normal switch on the wall, but it can also connect via Wi-fi to your smartphone so you can adjust the lights, set schedules, or shut them off remotely.

Whereas a smart plug can turn a standard outlet into a connected point that responds to your phone. For homes that benefit from an all-in-one solution, a smart home panel organizes connected fixtures and keeps everything on the same platform.

All of these accessories work within the HunterSMART system, which you can explore from our Smart Ceiling Fans collection. They are small upgrades that make a noticeable difference in daily comfort, especially when paired with fans or lighting that you already rely on.

What a Smart Plug Can Do in a Hunter Home

A smart plug turns an ordinary outlet into one you can control through your smart home system. Once the plug is connected through the Hunter setup process, you can manage the lamp or device that is plugged into it using schedules, app controls, or voice assistants. It is an easy way to bring older lamps or small appliances into your smart home without replacing anything you already own.

You can use a smart plug to create predictable lighting patterns, keep a lamp on a timer in the hallway, or switch a device on before you get home. It also helps with energy awareness, since you can see whether something was left on and turn it off from your phone.

A few common uses Hunter homeowners rely on:

• Lamps that need to come on automatically at dusk
• Accent lighting that should shut off each night
• Small seasonal lights or décor you do not want to control manually

By connecting simple items through a smart plug, you get flexibility without replacing the entire fixture. It is a practical way to expand your smart setup one outlet at a time.

Smart Light Switches for Connected Rooms

A smart light switch replaces a standard wall switch and connects to your WiFi, which provides you with the ability to adjust lights from your smartphone or a voice assistant. The switch sends the command directly to the fixture or fan, so the response feels immediate. This makes it an easy way to bring connected control into older rooms without changing the wiring that is already in place.

Homeowners who are building out a bigger smart setup often look at how switches, plugs, and fans work together. The smart home articles on the Hunter Blog highlight how people set up routines and shared controls across several rooms in a way that feels natural.

Once the switch is installed, you'll have the ability to turn your lights on before you walk in, dim them from across the room, or set up your typical daily schedules. It works for anyone in the household because you can still tap the wall switch normally, even when the smart features are running in the background.

Smart Plugs for Older Lamps and Everyday Devices

A smart plug lets you keep the older lamps and other lighting fixtures you already enjoy while giving them the kind of connected control newer fixtures have. HunterSmart plugs fit into a standard outlet and link to your WiFi network, so the lamp plugged into it can respond to schedules, app controls, and voice assistants, even though the fixture itself never changed. It sits in a standard outlet and connects to your WiFi network. Once it is online, you can control power from your phone or a voice assistant just like you would with a built-in smart fixture.

Smart plugs come in handy when you want more control without touching the wiring in your home.

Most people use them for simple things like:

• Table lamps that you turn on often
• Holiday or decorative lights that are easy to forget
• Small devices that make more sense on a timer

Once your HunterSmart plug is connected, you can program on and off times, build small routines - "turn this lamp off at sunset", or turn the outlet on from your phone when you are not home. The lamp still works if someone uses the regular switch, so nothing about the way your family already uses the room has to change. It is an easy workaround in spots where adding new wiring or installing a smart switch doesn’t make sense.

Smart Home Panels for Central Control

A smart home panel puts your lighting and connected devices in one place so you can manage the room without switching between different apps. Versions of this idea have been around for years. Early systems were basically wall boxes that controlled a few circuits. Today’s panels work with WiFi and smart devices, but the goal has stayed the same. Make it easier to run your home from a single spot.

Hunter designs its panels with that history in mind. You still use your switches and fixtures normally, but the panel adds a layer of organization that makes everything feel easier to manage. It helps you handle lighting scenes, smart plugs, or schedules in a way that feels predictable day to day. In busy rooms, it often becomes the unofficial command center that keeps everything running smoothly.

The panel connects to your WiFi network so updates happen quickly, and it works naturally with both newer fixtures and older lamps that have been upgraded through smart home accessories like a HunterSmart plug or HunterSmart light switch.

Choosing the Right Smart Accessories for Your Home

Let's be honest. The thought of turning your home into a connected one can feel a bit overwhelming at first. There are a lot of terms, different devices, and the worry that you might pick the wrong thing. Hunter has been designing dependable products for generations, so the goal with our HunterSMART accessories is to take that stress off of you and make the entire process feel simple rather than technical. Most setups only require a few small choices to get you moving in the right direction.

What works well in living spaces

Living rooms and dens often use a mix of older lamps and newer fixtures. This is where our HunterSmart plug comes in perfectly, because it provides you with app control without replacing anything. Lamps respond well to basic schedules, and the setup does not change the way your family already uses the room.

What fits kitchens or hallways

These areas usually rely on wired lighting. A smart light switch keeps the familiar wall control while adding features like remote access and timing. It also works smoothly with newer Hunter fixtures if you want your lighting to feel coordinated.

What ties a room together

A smart home panel becomes useful when several lights or smart accessories need to work together. It offers one spot to manage the room, so you are not jumping between different apps or switches. If you want ideas for how lighting layers can support each other, the Hunter Lighting Guide shares examples that help the decisions feel less intimidating.
