InHouse smart film in a home · switching clear-to-frosted to control privacy

A clip touring InHouse smart film in a real home — switching clear↔frosted to control privacy in each room, before we dig into choosing install spots and budgets below

In short · where should a home use smart film?

5 spots that pay off most: (1) Master bathroom · Outdoor + Aquaris™ (2) Master bedroom · Indoor (3) West-facing facade · Outdoor + Aquaris™ (40-55% heat rejection) (4) Open Plan living room · Indoor (Smart Partition) (5) Pool villa/balcony · Outdoor + Aquaris™ · total from ~150,000-500,000 THB per home, depending on size

Why homes should have smart film · 5 reasons

1) Privacy on Demand

Clear↔frosted in an instant, no need to keep drawing curtains open and shut. Ideal for modern homes with large glass panes

2) Cut AC bills by 25-40%

Outdoor + Aquaris™ rejects 40-55% of heat while blocking 99.99% of IR/UV, helping protect your furniture

3) Replaces curtains + motorised blinds

No dust build-up, nothing to wash, priced close to mid-range motorised blinds but lasting over twice as long

4) Smart Home Ready

Connects to Apple HomeKit · Google Home · Alexa · Matter, and can be controlled by voice

5) Increases home value

A home with Smart Home + Smart Film adds 5-10% resale value · appeals more strongly to the premium market

6) Retrofit onto existing homes

Applied over existing glass in 1-2 hours per pane, without touching built-ins and without a major renovation

Each room · which Series to choose

Master bathroom · Sexy Bathroom

Outdoor Series + Aquaris™ · wet-zone tech required

Bathrooms have 80%+ steam and humidity that ordinary PDLC cannot withstand, so you need Aquaris™ — which InHouse is the only brand in Thailand to offer — a real case being Pullman Hotel Phuket's 662 rooms using it, fitted on shower partition glass or Sexy Bathroom glass

Price: 9,500-12,000 THB/sqm · one partition pane (~3 sqm) ≈ 30,000-36,000 THB · deep dive: smart film for bathrooms

Master bedroom · kids' bedroom

Indoor Series · PDLC opaque by default when power is off

Fitted on windows or glass walls to replace curtains, with the default state (power off) = frosted opaque for privacy at all times, switching clear via wall switch · remote · Smart Home · voice (Siri/Google)

Price: 6,700-9,500 THB/sqm · one bedroom (~5 sqm of window) ≈ 33,500-47,500 THB

Living room · Open Plan Living

Indoor Series · used as a zone-dividing Smart Partition

Fitted on the glass partition dividing an Open Plan zone (kitchen/living), turning clear when you want openness and opaque when cooking to block drifting oil dust, and it also doubles as a space for displaying art or a projector

Price: 6,700-9,500 THB/sqm · one partition (~6 sqm) ≈ 40,000-57,000 THB · deep dive: smart film for living rooms

West-facing facade · large glass panes

Outdoor Series + Aquaris™ · focused on heat rejection

The west face is the hottest in Thailand, and fitting Outdoor + Aquaris™ cuts heat by 40-55% and saves 25-40% on AC, giving a 5-8 year ROI (the Outdoor series' +80% lifespan boost makes it worthwhile) while keeping the privacy function for evenings when neighbours can see inside

Price: 9,500-12,000 THB/sqm · a 20 sqm facade ≈ 190,000-240,000 THB

Pool villa · poolside terrace

Outdoor + Aquaris™ · weather- and chlorine-resistant

A poolside terrace has chlorine vapour · intense UV · and rain, so it needs Outdoor + Aquaris™, fitted on the glass panes dividing the living room from the pool zone — clear during use and opaque when swimmers need privacy — cases include Phuket / Samui / Koh Mak pool villas

Price: 9,500-12,000 THB/sqm · deep dive: smart film for pool villas
