Windows for Bedroom: Key Comfort Criteria

The bedroom is a place for rest and sleep, so windows here must ensure quietness, warmth, and a comfortable indoor climate. Let’s review the main selection aspects.

Noise insulation is critical for quality sleep. Pay attention to:

• insulating glass unit thickness (ideally at least 40 mm);
• varying glass thicknesses and unequal gaps between panes (effectively dampen street noise);
• seal quality (EPDM rubber is best—it’s elastic and durable).

Ventilation without discomfort is a must. Choose:

• a tilt‑and‑turn mechanism (allows ventilation mode without fully opening the window);
• micro‑ventilation mode (a 2–5 mm gap—fresh air without drafts);
• supply air valves (ensure constant air exchange without compromising noise insulation).

Safety also matters:

• a child safety lock prevents accidental opening;
• tempered or laminated glass is safer if broken.

Ease of use depends on:

• smooth hardware operation (test 5–10 open/close cycles);
• a smooth frame surface (easy to clean);
• the option to install a mosquito net (protection from insects).

Additional features for comfort:

• tinted glass (reduces sunlight brightness);
• solar‑control insulating glass units (reflect up to 60 % of heat radiation);
• a conveniently positioned sill (if you plan to use it as a seating area).

Before purchasing, check for certificates for the profile and hardware, and ensure quality installation—this guarantees long service life and comfort in the bedroom.
