Modern Towel Radiators

Modern towel radiators have come a long way since the age-old days of cast iron radiators. Now you can find state of the art flourishes in the guise of thermostats, Bluetooth operated radiators and electrically heated towel rails. This change in the way that we approach our home / office heating has led to a transformation of the modern radiator.

Modern Towel Radiators. Low Prices & Free UK Delivery On Selected Items

The modern towel radiator says goodbye to tired designs and inefficient home heating and creates multi-functional versatility and space savvy modern towel radiator designs.

You’ll be blown away by the range of modern towel rails we offer, and don’t worry. If you are after a traditional towel radiator but with a modern twist we have them too. It's not only new contemporary designs we have, we also include traditional ladder towel radiators but with modern colour finishes.

If you're thinking.. “What can make a towel radiator more modern?”, well it's not just the style. Even the way some of our radiators work inside is constructed with futuristic designs, for example; instead of connecting them to your copper pipes to have water delivered from your boiler, you can instead install them near plug sockets and just plug it in. Or even materials, instead of the heavy cast iron that used to be common, we now have a mixture of light weight aluminium, corrosive resistant stainless steel, mild steel and much more. Not to mention you're no longer stuck with limited sizes. We offer a vast array of size options for many of our towel rails if you have a small or large space.

Before you decide on your perfect radiator, you need to work out the optimal BTU output from your space. We have created a free BTU calculator for you to use. This will allow you to view the radiators that will best heat your space.

Modern Towel radiators are so vast in design now that they are no longer bound to the bathroom. Many of our towel rails are highly stylish and extremely practical in kitchens, cloakrooms, washrooms and even hallways to hang your coats on.

Modern Towel Radiators Popular Questions

Will a towel rail heat my space?

Towel rails and towel radiators have come much further than the olden days. With modern technology and optimised designs, many towel radiators can heat your space. This includes our towel rails too. But it is recommended that you look for a large bathroom radiator if your space is large. To find out if a towel rail is enough to heat your room, use our BTU calculator to find out the BTU output required to heat your space. Once you’ve done this, you can look for the perfect towel radiator for you.

What Materials Are Used For Modern Towel Radiators?

The two main materials involved in the making of our huge range of modern towel radiators are:

  • Stainless steel towel radiators - These are super durable and are excellent heat conductors. They heat up quickly and retain heat for a long time, keeping your room warm even after your central heating system has switched off.
  • Aluminium towel radiators – Aluminium is environmentally responsible, very efficient and make a unique style statement. Do you like the idea of metal but prefer the sustainability of something that will last and can eventually be recycled for reuse? If so, aluminium towel rails are for you.

Are Modern Towel Radiators More Efficient Than Traditional Ones?

Modern towel rails, when compared to traditional ones, have an improved design which creates a more efficient heating unit. This isn’t to say our more traditional designs aren’t efficient but a newer design usually means a more efficient design.

Where Is The Best Place To Install A Heated Towel Rail?

If you're placing a towel radiator in your space to heat your room, you’ll want to look at installing your towel rail on the coldest wall in your room, or near the window (usually the coldest wall is the one with a window). Installing a towel radiator here will help distribute the heat around your room. If you're placing your heated towel rail in your bathroom then it's also recommended to place it closer to your bath or shower so towels are easy to reach.
