Watch the clip · smart film for condos
A clip touring InHouse smart film in a real condo — switching clear↔frosted to control privacy without drilling into walls
In short · is smart film worth it for a condo?
Worth it — especially for west/south-facing condos with AC bills over 2,000 THB a month, because fitting Smart Film Outdoor + Aquaris™ (PDLC base) cuts heat by 40-55% and reduces AC bills by 25-40%. For one 35-50 sqm condo + a 5-8 sqm facade ≈ 50,000-95,000 THB, giving a 4-6 year ROI from lower AC bills, without touching the structure and with easy juristic-office approval

3 install spots · start with the most worthwhile
1. West/south-facing facade · large glass panes
Outdoor + Aquaris™ · the most worthwhile for a city condo
Most condo facade glass is large, 4-8 sqm, especially on the west/south faces that catch the most sun. Once fitted, it cuts heat by 40-55% and AC bills by 25-40% for a 4-6 year ROI, while keeping the privacy function against the neighbouring tower
Budget: 6 sqm × 11,000 THB ≈ 66,000 THB
2. Master bathroom · partition glass
Outdoor + Aquaris™ · Wet zone
Condo bathrooms often have shower partition glass, fitted with Aquaris™ that withstands humidity — clear for cleaning and frosted while showering
Budget: 1.5-2 sqm × 11,000 THB ≈ 16,500-22,000 THB
3. Master bedroom · replace curtains
Indoor Series · opaque by default → privacy
Fitted on the bedroom window to replace curtains with no dust build-up, pressing the switch to turn clear in the morning for light and opaque at night for privacy
Budget: 3-4 sqm × 8,500 THB ≈ 25,500-34,000 THB
Getting condo juristic-office approval · how to do it
Smart Film is a Retrofit applied over existing glass without touching the structure, so the juristic office usually permits it inside the unit. Here's what to check first:
- 1.Does the facade glass change appearance from outside? — clear/frosted smart film may look different from the building facade · check with the juristic office that it's allowed
- 2.New wiring inside the unit — InHouse uses Low Voltage 48-60V (AC/DC) · run from an existing outlet · no wall drilling required
- 3.Notification documents — InHouse prepares a spec sheet + sample images to notify the juristic office · most approve within 1-2 weeks
- 4.Removable — when you move out, the film peels off in 1 day · restoring the original condition

When I move out of the condo, can the film be removed?
