If you decided to build a bath or sauna, you probably wondered: how many window openings should be in the room, how to install a window in the bath, are windows needed in the steam room and what material should they be made of? The principles of glazing of the rooms do not work here, because the bath and sauna have a very specific microclimate.
Installation
of windows in the steam
room and
other areas of the bath and sauna
There is an opinion that there is no need to install the window in the steam room. But this is fundamentally wrong, the windows are simply necessary for full ventilation. Traditionally, the window in the steam room is installed opposite the entrance door above the shelf. This location provides good natural light and allows you to quickly dry the room.
To make the
steam room lighter, you can install an additional picture window on another
wall. Sometimes a small window is mounted under one of the shelves to better
dry the bottom of the room. At least one window should be placed in the
washroom. According to the fire safety requirements, the size of this opening
window should be enough so that in case of a fire, visitors can get outside.
Advantages of windows from a thermotree for a bath and a sauna

We recommend choosing a more reliable alternative - windows for a sauna and a bath from a thermowood. These are specialized structures that are designed for use in hot and humid areas.
