The winner of the 2022 Best Kitchen & Bath Product Best of IBS™ Award is… 

the Swidget 20/40/60 Control Switch. 

It’s the only modular smart home device capable of automating a home ventilation system to ensure the air remains clean and fresh.  

Paired with Swidget’s Wi-Fi Motion, air quality or temperature/humidity inserts, the 20/40/60 Control Switch automatically turns on a bathroom fan or ERV based on occupancy, air quality or humidity and turns it off when conditions improve or are removed. 

“Great feature is to be able to control air quality in homes.” — Best of IBS Judge Alma Jacobs, Carolina’s Builder Relationship Manager, Atlantic Bay Mortgage Group 

Swidget’s innovative and patented design allows builders to stay up to date with rapidly changing technology and gives them a competitive edge by offering the most advanced solutions to homeowners. 

“This product is not super sexy; however, it stands out above all others. Its ability to have multiple integrated modules allows homeowners more flexibility in controlling their whole house environment. Swidget modular component can adapt to the future needs and technologies without locking a homeowner into specific equipment.” — Best of IBS Judge Dan Mitchell, President, Eagle CDI, Inc. 

The ability to automate humidity controls is critical for builders from a warranty standpoint because it takes the onus off homeowners who may not understand what good humidity levels are and the effect it has on flooring, drywall, cabinets, etc. It’s critical to protect homeowners from dangerous mold and mildew. 

Congratulations to Swidget for winning the Best Kitchen & Bath Product.
