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

5 top condo problems · smart film solves them

1) The next tower can see in

Fit Smart Film on the facade glass, press the switch to turn opaque when you want privacy, and clear again when you want the view

2) Hot west/south-facing facade

Outdoor + Aquaris™ cuts heat by 40-55%, lowering AC bills, for a 4-6 year ROI in a city condo

3) Dated, dust-collecting curtains

Smart film replaces curtains — no dust build-up, nothing to wash, cleaner-looking, and it adds condo value

4) Juristic-office approval is a hassle

Smart Film is applied over existing glass without touching the structure or building facade, so it passes the juristic office easily

5) Smart Home Modern Lifestyle

Connect Apple HomeKit and control it with Siri or from your iPhone — a modern lifestyle newer condos can pull off

6) Rent it out at a premium price

A condo with Smart Film + Smart Home rents monthly at a higher rate and attracts international tenants

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

Frequently asked questions · condos

Can you fit smart film in a condo — will the juristic office allow it?

Most allow it · Smart Film is applied over existing glass as a retrofit · without touching the structure · InHouse prepares spec documents to notify the juristic office · approved within 1-2 weeks · the point to check is whether the facade glass changes appearance from outside

What does fitting smart film in one condo unit cost?

It depends on the spots — a 6 sqm facade (Outdoor + Aquaris™) ≈ 66,000 THB · bathroom ≈ 20,000 THB · bedroom ≈ 30,000 THB · total for one condo unit ≈ 50,000-200,000 THB depending on size and number of spots

How much does condo smart film really save on AC?

A west/south-facing condo facade averages 2,500 THB/month in AC · fitting Outdoor + Aquaris™ cuts 30% = 750 THB/month or 9,000 THB/year · install budget ~66,000 THB → ROI ~7-8 years · with the film's +80% lifespan boost → worth it

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

Yes — the InHouse crew removes it in 1 day · restoring the original glass · the film leaves no adhesive residue · the glass is clear as before · if it's a rental you can keep the film and reuse it in your new home (depending on size)

Can it connect to the condo's Apple HomeKit?

Yes — it supports Apple HomeKit · Google Home · Alexa · Matter · control from iPhone · Siri · Apple Watch · or use the InHouse Smart Home system (100% offline · not tied to any cloud)

Can it be fitted in a rented condo?

Yes if the owner permits — Smart Film peels off when you hand back the condo · some tenants fit it themselves for a modern lifestyle during the lease · it's removed in 1 day when moving out · but the install cost is high, so it's not ideal for short-term rentals

Is it worth it in a small condo (Studio 25-30 sqm)?

Worth it if you're focused on privacy + lifestyle · fitting just one facade spot ≈ 40,000-60,000 THB · replacing curtains + motorised blinds over the long run · a Studio Premium rents at a higher rate · and the modern lifestyle adds resale value
