For most of us, the kitchen is the hub of the household. That is why when first designing or remodeling it, we focus on functionality, efficiency ease of maintenance and appeal. And those are the aspects that should apply when considering the type of window treatment for your kitchen too. In that aspect, venetian blinds seem to be the most viable choice.

Water Resistant

If you have a kitchen window within close proximity to the stove top, then you are likely to benefit from venetian blinds for kitchen windows. The models made from durable and stable PVC material can offer the right protection from humidity and steam that’s occurring during the most common activity in the kitchen – cooking. Unlike some other materials which can rot, fade or shrink in a moist environment, venetians can pass that test. Another position for kitchen window in a lot of homes may be above the sink, and if this is the case, PVC vertical blinds are a sensible choice. Being splash-proof and mould resistant, these will be able to withstand being splattered frequently.

UV Protection and Privacy

Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can change the way that kitchen furniture looks by causing it to fade. Apart from that, without the right protection, the sun’s rays can raise the kitchen’s temperature (imagine how hot it can get if you are cooking at the same time) since as they pass through the naked glass they magnify. Another reason why venetian blinds for kitchen windows are a smart choice is the light control they offer. You can adjust how much sunlight you want to enter the kitchen by angling the blades in such a way as to direct, filter or block out light. Whilst controlling the natural light, you can also set your privacy, especially if your kitchen windows are facing a busy street.

Easy to Clean and Maintain

As with most things that need care and attention, prevention is better than cure. Venetians can be tricky because of the number of individual slats they have, but with regular cleaning, you can prevent dust and dirt build up. Venetian blinds are great for the kitchen environment since you can easily tackle any food splashes and grease with a damp cloth. You don’t have to take them down to clean them as is the case with fabric blinds which have to be removed from the window in order to clean them.
