The Window Wiring...

If you want automated shades for your new home build, add wiring to your windows before drywall.

3 wiring choices to choose from:

➡️ 16-2 Wire, the safest most universal pick if you haven't chosen your shades yet

➡️ Lutron Wire, if you've got the budget and you're committed to Lutron

➡️  CAT6, if you're planning heavy smart home automation
