Electric Frosted Privacy Glass Window

jacsul

Have a Client looking for a bath remodel. Inquired about an electric frosted glass window, said they saw it on some "home show". I remember seeing something a few years ago and then that was it. Basically the window is wired to a circuit, when it's charged it creates a distortion within the glass, hence instant privacy. Problem is I can't find anyone in my area who has used or installed one or if there still available.

My other question, is it even worth going to the extra trouble of installing something like this. I could just mention curtains and they would say "That's fine"

Thanks,

Jack

I would say it is very much worth the effort. It sounds like a nice mark-up waiting to happen. I have never installed one, but I try to give the customer what they want.

To answer your question with a bit of info attached; this is a liquid crystal film that is added to the PVB inner layer of a laminated piece of glass. I have ordered and installed this myself on a couple of projects and am looking into it on another in town now. It is quite expensive ($200-400 sq. ft) depending on the particulars. If you are ordering in larger quantities I recomend getting this from over seas, but you will have to be prepared to wait 8-10 weeks sometimes. there are local vendors that do deal in it, but you will pay a premium.
