  11.  Does Smart Film Work? 

​           Yes, when an electric current passes through the film, the liquid crystals will align themselves in order to let light pass through; when turned off, they will un-align again to             block visibility. This means that by simply flipping on or off an electrical switch, you can make your windows opaque or transparent in an instant!

​     12.  How much does Smart Film Cost?

            The film is applied to the surface of existing glass and can be installed as a do-it-yourself project or by professional window film installers. Contact us or one of our many                Dealers as the price per square foot ranges depending on the size of the order.

​      13. What is the difference between smart film and smart glass?

             When you purchase Smart Glass the Smart Film is inside the glass either in a laminated or insulated (double pane) format. Because smart glass is laminated, it is the

             most durable option as the switchable film is protected from the elements. It is also easy to clean.

Key Points Comparing Smart Film to Power Blinds or Frosted Film

F.A.Q.

Key Points

Dynamic Control and Flexibility:

  • Smart Film: Offers the ability to switch between transparent and opaque states with the touch of a button or through a remote control. This allows you to instantly adapt to changing needs for privacy, light control, or aesthetics.
  • Power Blinds: Typically offer either open or closed states, which means you have less flexibility compared to Smart Film.
  • Frosted Film: Provides a constant level of opacity, so you can’t adjust the transparency based on different needs or times of day.


Example: Imagine hosting a meeting in your office. With Smart Film, you can instantly switch from clear to frosted to block out distractions or ensure privacy during confidential discussions. With power blinds, you’d need to wait for them to fully open or close, and frosted film would remain opaque regardless of your need.

Aesthetics and Modern Appeal:

  • Smart Film: Features a sleek, modern look with no visible hardware, creating a clean and uncluttered appearance. It integrates seamlessly into the glass, enhancing the overall design of your space.
  • Power Blinds: Can be bulky and require installation of additional hardware, which might detract from a minimalist or modern interior design.
  • Frosted Film: Can be visually appealing, but lacks the interactive element and modern technology feel of Smart Film.


Example: In a contemporary home, Smart Film can be applied to large glass panels, maintaining a minimalist design while offering high-tech functionality. Power blinds might disrupt the visual flow with their mechanical components, and frosted film, while stylish, does not offer the same futuristic appeal.

Energy Efficiency:

  • Smart Film: Can contribute to energy savings by reducing heat gain in the summer and heat loss in the winter. It allows you to control light and heat, potentially lowering your energy bills.
  • Power Blinds: Can provide some insulation but are generally less effective at managing temperature compared to Smart Film.
  • Frosted Film: Primarily provides privacy and doesn’t offer significant benefits in terms of thermal insulation.


Example: In a commercial building with Smart Film, you can adjust the transparency to block excessive sunlight, reducing cooling costs during hot months. Power blinds might not be as effective in managing solar heat gain, and frosted film does not provide significant thermal benefits.

Durability and Maintenance:

  • Smart Film: Typically has a long lifespan and requires minimal maintenance. It’s easy to clean since it’s integrated directly into the glass surface.
  • Power Blinds: Require regular cleaning and maintenance of both the blinds and the mechanical components. They can be prone to malfunction if not maintained properly.
  • Frosted Film: Can be prone to scratching and may require replacement if damaged. Cleaning might also be more cumbersome as you have to be cautious not to damage the film.


Example: In a high-traffic office environment, Smart Film is advantageous as it doesn’t accumulate dust or require frequent maintenance. Power blinds would need regular upkeep, and frosted film might show wear and tear more quickly.

Privacy and Security:

  • Smart Film: Provides on-demand privacy, which is useful for both residential and commercial settings. You can adjust the level of opacity as needed for different situations.
  • Power Blinds: Offer privacy only when fully closed, which may not always be desirable or practical.
  • Frosted Film: Provides constant privacy but lacks the ability to adjust or offer transparent views when needed.


Example: In a residential setting, Smart Film allows you to enjoy an open view during the day and switch to a frosted appearance in the evening for privacy. Power blinds would require you to choose between full exposure or full closure, while frosted film would always limit your view.

In summary, Smart Film stands out due to its dynamic control, modern aesthetics, energy efficiency, low maintenance, and versatile privacy options. It provides a sophisticated and practical solution for both residential and commercial spaces, making it a superior choice over traditional power blinds or frosted film.
