In high-rise townhouses, there are often many toilets. There are many cases where the toilet upstairs is located on the bedroom of the lower floor. This is not advisable because the dirty air of the upper toilet goes down, affecting the sleep of people in the bedroom.

For health reasons, toilets should have ventilation holes, not windows. The activities in the toilet mainly expose the skin, the humidity in this space is already high, if there is a ventilation window, it is easy for the user to experience a sudden drop in body temperature, which is not good for health. There should be ventilation holes so that the space in the toilet is not stuffy and secret.
