3. Additional Features
Features such as smartphone control, home automation integration, and environmental sensors add convenience but also affect the overall cost.
4. Installation Complexity
Installation Complexity is a huge driver of the final cost. Homes with unique architectural elements, such as columns, brick facades, or uneven surfaces, may require additional labor or custom framing, which can increase costs.
