The choices you’ll make during a window replacement will depend on where you’re installing the windows. Your kitchen, for example, may have window design considerations that are slightly different than those in the bathroom. By understanding them better, you can easily choose the windows that work best for the space.
1. Access to Natural Light
You and your family spend a considerable amount of time in the kitchen so it makes perfect sense to pick a window style that can make it bright and cheerful. Sliding windows are a good choice for this. By letting in plenty of natural light, they can make your space look neater and larger. At the same time, they lower your reliance on artificial lighting during the daytime. Sliding windows can also maximize your viewing area with their slim frames and expansive glass. Plus, they allow for effortless operation – just push them to the side to close or open.
2. Improved Natural Ventilation
Most kitchen tasks involve the use of water, which contribute to high levels of humidity inside your home. To prevent warmth and moisture buildup in your kitchen, choose operable windows that can enhance your access to natural ventilation. Casement and double hung windows are champions of this. They’ll keep the kitchen cool and fresh, and improve indoor air quality by expelling moisture and lingering odors.
3. Maximize Available Space
To get the most of your kitchen’s available space, you should consider adding bay or bow windows. Their unique shape makes them an instant focal point. The deep sill area of these windows also allows for a number of functions like serving as a cozy breakfast nook, a small storage area or a good surface for showing off decorative items.
