Although bathroom windows are fitted with obscured glass, most people will want a little extra privacy offered by a curtain or blind.

Venetian blinds are an ideal choice as they are made from metal or wood and are therefore not prone to mould growth. Other types of blind or curtain can be used providing there is plenty of ventilation or extraction to remove excess moisture from the air to prevent mould growth.
