Choosing the perfect bathroom window requires a little attention when it comes to durability, security and privacy. Many factors must be taken into account, always thinking, of course, also of the project budget. And for this mission, how about checking out the following tips and hitting the right choice?
Best types of bathroom window
According to the architect and designer Karina Lapezack , when choosing a window for a bathroom, it is not only necessary to think about the type of material, but also the specific norms to define the minimum measures, due to the need for ventilation and lighting of the space. Given these factors, check out the main options available on the market:
Aluminum or PVC window
Due to its strength, durability and versatility, the aluminum window is the most used in bathroom projects. According to the architect, the market offers numerous different models, such as maxim ar – a type of tilting that allows air to enter without viewing the interior of the environment -, the sliding one – ideal for larger bathrooms, which can receive a film to ensure privacy – and pivoting – with vertical central opening.
Wood window
Wooden windows are quite elegant and offer great versatility to the project, as it is possible to order them in bespoke shapes and sizes. However, the material requires greater maintenance care, to avoid wear and tear caused by humidity, sunlight and attack by pests – mainly termites. “Due to sustainability factors, most new works do not use wood, with some reservations, in specific cases”, warns Karina.
Glass window
The elegance of glass is indisputable. The ideal is to use the windows of this model in bathrooms that have a strategic position of privacy, or that the windows receive a protective film to inhibit vision. According to Karina, despite having the glass as the biggest highlight, the frames and the structure are usually of metallic structure.
