According to experts, the bathroom isn’t just one of the most frequently used rooms around your home but it’s also one of the rooms that sees a large amount of humidity on a daily basis. Therefore, to ensure it’s properly ventilated, it’s vital that you have a proper window for the bathroom. According to professionals, however, when you’re picking a window replacement for the room, there are a few factors that you need to consider in order to pick the right one.
These factors include:
The size of your new window is one of the important factors that you’ll need to consider when picking a new window for your bathroom. This is because not only will a larger window help ventilate your bathroom better but it will also increase the amount of natural light that enters the room. That way, you can prevent mold and mildew growth and make the room look brighter and larger at the same time.
While a larger window can help ventilate and brighten your bathroom, it can negatively affect your privacy as well. With that in mind, to prevent compromising your bathroom’s privacy, you’ll also have to consider the placement of your window. In fact, if you want a sizable window that doesn’t compromise your privacy, experts recommend that you have your window replacement contractor place the window higher on the wall than at head height. By doing so, you can easily ventilate your bathroom without sacrificing your privacy.
Like the placement, window transparency is an important factor to think about when picking a new window for your bathroom as it can also affect your privacy. With that in mind, if you’re looking for a window that allows lots of natural light in while maintaining your privacy at the same time, experts recommend that you consider windows that are frosted, stained, seeded or textured for your bathroom. Alternatively, you can also consider installing a privacy film on your window.
