4 reasons why our plantation shutters are the best choice for any bathroom

  • Moisture and humidity resistant

It’s no secret that Sydney has high humidity and poor infrastructure which both contribute to the growth of mould. During winter, humidity becomes an even bigger problem as homeowners shut their windows and doors, which reduce air ventilation and provide the perfect atmosphere for mould and mildew growth. As you can imagine, bathrooms suffer terribly as steam from showers and exhaust from dryers exacerbate these conditions.

Mould can often be found on your bathroom windows. This is not only unsightly and unclean, but it’s also incredibly harmful to your health. The plantation shutters bathroom from Empire Window Furnishings are made with materials that are resistant to moisture and humidity, preventing the growth of mould and other bacteria. In addition to avoiding this, humidity and moisture resistant shutters require less maintenance and last longer, improving the value of your investment.

  • Provide directed air ventilation

As mentioned before, a bathroom in Sydney is prone to mould and mildew growth. While our plantation shutters bathroom are resistant to humidity and moisture the rest of your bathroom may not be, leaving it vulnerable to mould and mildew growth.

One of the best combatants for mould and mildew is air ventilation. Good ventilation helps to circulate new, clean air and helps it move throughout the bathroom and prevents allergens. It also helps to dry moist areas of your bathroom and prevent them from harbouring mould.

Plantation shutters, like almost any window furnishing on the market, provide excellent ventilation. However, its unique advantage is in its configuration. The shutters’ open louvre blades facilitate cross ventilation which is much more effective for filling your bathroom with natural air. Additionally, you can keep your plantation shutters open throughout the day as it is secure, prevents prying eyes from looking into your bathroom and does not allow rain to enter inside your home. This provides peace of mind and allows you to keep your bathroom well ventilated at any time of the day.
