Windows are an important aspect of any home, not only for the natural light they let in, but also for creating an unrivaled view of the surrounding beauty. When designing or choosing an apartment, one important decision must be made – on which side of the building to install them. Before ordering a plastic window, you should decide what to give preference to – a luxurious look or practicality. Depending on the specific location in the room, energy efficiency will be increased or decreased.
How to make the right decision?
First of all, a beautiful view can enhance the perception of a room. It can provide a sense of peace and tranquility and inspire creativity. When it comes to which side of the building the windows in the apartment face, many people prefer the south or east side. This is due to sunlight during the day, which can be helpful for natural light and warmth during the colder months. Plants placed on a windowsill need more sunlight.
However, a southern or eastern installation also has its drawbacks. For example, during the summer months, direct sunlight can lead to:
- Deterioration of the temperature regime of the room;
- Increase in electricity bills;
- Bad illumination.
Because the air conditioning system has to work harder to keep the room cool.
Windows facing north or west may be a more practical solution for some. While these exposures may not provide as much natural light, they can provide a stable temperature throughout the day, which can be helpful in reducing energy costs. North and west views are less likely to obstruct other buildings, providing more privacy and less traffic noise.
The final decision comes down to personal preference and the location of the building. For example, if the apartment is located in a busy city center, a southern or eastern exposure can offer the most breathtaking views of the city skyline. On the other hand, if the apartment is located in a quiet suburban area, the north or west side may offer a more peaceful and secluded view.
Who can help you choose the perfect window arrangement?
In order to properly arrange high-quality windows and not waste extra time, we recommend that you contact your local window retailer. They will advise on selecting metal-plastic construction and a suitable place for its installation in the apartment. Before announcing the final cost of services, the manager will measure, discuss the details with the client, and after the approval of the work plan, they will begin to fulfill the order.
