When choosing a heated towel rail for your bathroom there is one major consideration – modern towel rails or traditional towel rails. Although this is mainly a personal preference, the design of the rest of your bathroom will play a role in the decision.
The first of these is how the towel rail is going to be heated.There are three ways in which the towel rail can be heated:
The heating output of a towel rail should also be considered. Chrome, nickel and gold plated towel rails (whether it’s a steel or brass base radiator) have their heat outputs reduced by up to 20% due to the electro plating finish. This is compared to the painted and stainless steel versions which offer a more efficient heat output.
Another important consideration is whether the towel rail is going to be the primary heat source for your bathroom or solely used as a towel warmer. You will also need to think about the number of towels you will have on the towel rail – towels will absorb the heat rather than radiating it into your bathroom. If you are planning to use your towel rail as the primary heat source then the surface area should be large enough to provide enough heat. To maximise the heat output, you might want to consider a column heating radiator built into the towel rail.
