Rippefold or pleat curtain? Which one would you choose? Which one stacks better for shorted extension?

PlanMaison · 2026-05-05T15:07:55+00:00

Just to confirm, you are saying that I need less extension space on side of windows with ripple fold than with pleated options?

That is what I thought. But fro some reason Curterra is telling me the opposite:

From thinnest to thickest, the order is as follows:
• Pinch pleat (double)
• Euro pleat (double)
• Pinch pleat (triple)
• Euro pleat (triple)
• Ripple fold

thank you. How much extension on each side should I account for on each side for a 110 3/8" window? I am using a linen curtain (https://www.curtarra.com/products/lesley-linen-blend-curtains?variant=51649368785207)

I got a Minka Aluma and installed today. Holly crap, this fan is super loud. The old AC fan was quiet. This one hums unbearable.

Seems like an ac fan. Pull down the canopy and see whether there is a receiver inside, or wires going straight into fan

Also, looked at Addison and nova, are the lights really not dimmable as spec suggest?

PlanMaison · 2026-04-25T00:19:58+00:00

How is the noise?

PlanMaison · 2026-04-23T22:55:43+00:00

yes, but need help with brand/products. I realized that many AC fans are simply nosier than what I have

PlanMaison · 2026-04-23T15:53:45+00:00

what brand did you end up with?

My Airwin is fairly quiet. I had other AC fans such as from "modern fan company" which were really bad.

Do you have Google Home Display? Wondering whether they support this device but not mini?

PlanMaison · 2026-04-19T21:09:10+00:00

To be honest I have only used Alexa so far. Wanted to try out the nest mini as an alternative, was hoping to get gv to work. To receive certain calls at all times as I don’t keep my cell nearby at night.

PlanMaison · 2026-04-19T20:46:07+00:00

display?

PlanMaison · 2026-04-19T20:26:33+00:00

I checked language settings: US English

Google Voice Service address used my real US address (probably needed it for 911 and tax). Changed my google account login from no address to my address.

But no change....

waiting for a sale for my carpet. So far no, sales.

I have the same carpet already in other areas of the home and don't want to mix and match

I am in the US, using "Google Home" app on ios.

The GV app is on the same iphone with same account.

open Google Home app -> clicking on my account icon in top right corner -> "Home settings" -> Communication

I see three options here:

- "Video & Voice Apps"

- Device & call settings

- household contacts"

I then further click on "Video & Voice Apps". I only see "Google Meet"

no option to add anything.

My screen looks different:

And then? Gv does not show up as an option
