Thinking about getting smart glass installed at home, but I'm kinda worried about the wiring stuff. Is it usually straightforward plug-and-play, or am I looking at a weekend of headaches and tangled wires? Curious what others experienced...
I looked into smart glass a while back too, and from what I gathered, it's not exactly plug-and-play, but it's not a total nightmare either. It really depends on your setup—like if you're just doing one window or a whole room. A buddy of mine did his home office window and said the wiring was pretty straightforward, just needed to hide the cables neatly. But if you're planning multiple windows or integrating with smart home systems, it might get trickier... Have you checked out any installation vids yet?
I haven't checked out installation videos yet, but your friend's experience sounds reassuring. I'm considering smart glass for my living room windows—just two medium-sized ones—but I'm a bit concerned about the wiring visibility. My walls are already painted and finished, so cutting into drywall isn't something I'm eager to tackle right now. Did your buddy mention if he had to do any drywall work or was he able to conceal everything neatly with just cable channels or trim? I'm hoping there's a way to keep it tidy without major renovations...
