Designing a Healthier Bathroom: 3 Simple and Effective Tips

There’s nothing wrong with prioritizing aesthetics and comfort in your bathroom, but you should also focus on ways that can make the space healthier. By designing a bathroom with wellness in mind, you can create a safer and healthier environment that allows you to thrive even in these unprecedented times. Here are a few ways to do this.

1. Increase the bathroom’s access to natural ventilation. As with kitchens and laundry rooms, the bathroom generates a considerable amount of heat and moisture. And, where there’s moisture, mold and mildew soon follow. You probably already know the health risks involved with constant mold exposure, and you’ll want to avoid this by making sure your bathroom remains well-ventilated. You can augment your existing exhaust fans by installing large operable windows. They’ll expel warm, moisture-laden air to the outside and let in cooling breezes that make your bathroom fresher and healthier.

2. Upgrade your shower area. If you still have a tiled shower, then you’re probably spending a lot of time scrubbing its grout lines free of stains and mold. To lower maintenance requirements and prevent mold growth, you should consider upgrading your shower with an alternative material. Just turn to your premier bath renovations expert, Ganser Company. We offer KOHLER® LuxStone® shower systems made of non-porous, stain-resistant crushed stone, allowing for a space that leaves fewer places for mold to develop. Plus, they make cleaning and maintenance a simpler task.

3. Add live plants in your bathroom. The popularity of indoor plants isn’t waning anytime soon. They are a perfect addition to bath spaces, not only because they look good, but because they have a calming effect. In fact, some studies reveal they help lower stress levels and increase memory retention. What’s more, live plants can help improve air quality in the bathroom by regulating excess humidity.
