There are a lot of things to consider when it comes to planning a bathroom remodel. Apart from the choice of fixtures and fittings, many homeowners are looking to incorporate health and wellness into their design. In fact, the home remodeling industry is seeing an interesting trend in which families are looking to create a safe, healthy environment in which they can thrive during the “new normal” and beyond.
Below are some of the considerations to keep in mind when designing a bathroom that ensures everyone’s health.
Mold and mildew grow anywhere where moisture is present, including the bathroom. These can affect your home’s indoor air quality, resulting in respiratory problems. Make sure to keep them at bay by incorporating specific elements into your bathroom design. For example, install waterproof flooring like natural stone or ceramic tiles. Choose a nonporous countertop for your vanities like quartz or granite.
Your bathroom should serve as your cozy retreat after a long exhausting day doing household chores or doing remote work. If it is evoking feelings of sadness or emptiness, consider incorporating colors, textures, or wall art to create a bathroom space you’ll want to spend more time in. Also, focus on the height of certain fixtures when planning your bath renovation. Mirrors, cabinets, and vanities must be the right height to prevent bending and stretching in ways that can cause tension and stress to your body.
The pandemic has taught us the importance of proper hygiene. Modern smart products can make it easier for you and your family to limit the spread of germs and promote health and wellness. With a motion-activated faucet, you don’t have to turn the knob using your dirty hands. A self-cleaning toilet, meanwhile, limits exposure to germs that can make you sick and keep it clean in-between your deep cleanings.
