Before we look at the different window treatments on offer, you need to know whether your windows are in the splash zone or not.
The splash zone refers to windows that may:
Get splattered by food or liquids
Be above the sink
Be near spitting pans on the stove
Be near moisture or steam constantly
If you've got a kitchen window in the splash zone, you need to opt for materials like PVC and faux wood, as these materials are much easier to wipe clean than their fabric and wood-based counterparts.
Vinyl roller shades and faux wood shutters are ideal for windows in the splash zone. You could use products made from wood or fabric, but they'll be much more difficult to clean and maintain.
