It’s always important to choose windows that match your siding and the rest of your exterior, but don’t forget to take functionality and your interiors into consideration as well. Every room in your home is different with different functions and needs so it makes sense to find replacement windows that are 100% right for each room’s needs.
Unfortunately, finding the right window for a room can be challenging without the help of a professional.
Living Rooms
Living rooms are, by far, the easiest room for which to find windows. First, you want to position windows so that they face the sun at the right time of the day. You might need some siding repair services if you choose to reposition a window, however, so be prepared for that possibility. The window styles that work best for living rooms have wide glass areas and easy operation, such as casement and double-hung windows.
Bedrooms
Code requirements specify windows as an egress point, which means your choices for bedroom replacement windows must be operable. Picture windows are out of the question, but properly sized casement and double-hung windows remain to be good candidates as well. Sliding windows are also good options for a bedroom.
Kitchen and Bath
These two rooms are polar opposites when it comes to their needs. Kitchens can make use of a large picture window to transform a sink area into the focal point of the room, design wise. Resizing a window might require some siding adjustment, but a professional should be able to help you out with this. On the other hand, bathroom windows must focus on privacy which is why frosted glazing is a popular choice for this room in a home.
