- Orientation of each window or door in relation to the sun
- What area of the home is the window or door?
- Purpose of the window or door (solely for ventilation, access or letting in light. Does it serve multiple purposes)
- What other features will be in the room/area (kitchen bench height will impact the window positioning and sill height, cupboards may impact the opening direction)
- Energy Efficiency & Acoustic report requirements can impact the actual size & types of the windows allowed in different parts of your Sunshine Coast Shed Home
- Insect or Security Screens in your Shed Home would be an inclusion not to miss to keep all the unwanted pests out. Easier to install at construction, don’t forget these in home inclusions.
