Kitchen Without Stuffy Air: PVC Windows for Comfortable Cooking
The kitchen is a special space with high humidity, temperature fluctuations, and the constant need for ventilation. Let’s explore which PVC windows can meet these challenges.
1. Ventilation System — Top Priority
Look for windows with:
- a tilt‑and‑turn mechanism (versatile opening options);
- micro‑ventilation function (continuous air exchange without drafts);
- ventilation valve (automatic air supply).
2. Moisture Resistance
Make sure that:
- the profile has sealed gaskets made of silicone or EPDM rubber;
- drainage holes remain unclogged (essential for condensate removal);
- metal reinforcement inside the profile is corrosion‑resistant.
3. Safety and Convenience
For kitchens, consider:
- a handle with a lock (child safety);
- opening restrictor (prevents sudden swinging open due to wind);
- rounded sash corners (safety during active use).
4. Glazing Unit: Balancing Light and Maintenance
The optimal choice is a double‑glazed unit (3 panes). Useful features include:
- self‑cleaning coating (less hassle with grease stains);
- frosted or tinted glass in the work area (glare protection);
- tempered glass (resistance to temperature swings).
5. Design and Functionality
- For small kitchens — a single‑sash window or a transom above the doorway.
- For spacious kitchens — two‑ or three‑sash designs with an active middle section.
- Profile colour: light shades (visually expand the space) or wood imitation (cozy style).
6. Additional Accessories
- Mosquito net with reinforced fastening (essential for frequent ventilation).
- Blinds or roller shades with moisture‑resistant coating.
- A windowsill made of moisture‑resistant material (e.g., stone laminate).
Important: during installation, check the tightness of the joints — this will prevent mould growth. Trust the installation only to certified professionals.
