The Benefits Of a Heated Towel Rail

Multifunctional

Firstly, the heated towel rail is a multifunctional work of genius. With the towel rail you’re not only heating the bathroom, but also keeping your towels warm and bringing a level of space economy which is much needed in bathrooms. This kills several birds with one central heated stone, giving you satisfaction on a variety of levels. Whatever your tastes and style of radiator, there’s no denying the multifunctionality of a heated towel rail radiator.

Towel rail and mirror - a three in one combo!

Add a vertical towel mirror radiator to the mix and you have three birds and one central heated stone, perfectly dashed from the to do list. The addition of a mirror is just one of the boundless possibilities which come with a towel rails design ingenuity. The mirror addition will mean there is no need for extra wall space to be used and, especially with vertical radiators, can be full length so as to give the user as much time to preen themselves, whatever the occasion.

Flexible heating arrangements

The heated towel rail gives customers a chance to explore the variety of heating options out there. With the bathroom comes many challenges in design and heating. Part of this is due to how sporadic and unpredictable the heating in a bathroom can be. Think about it, a bathroom is not used for a lot of the day, not nearly as much as the bedroom, kitchen and living room, where inhabitants spend most of their time and therefore can get quite cold. That being said, when they are used, the bathroom can become a space which is incredibly hot and does not need heating from a radiator. With this in mind, you want a radiator which can heat your bathroom quickly, whilst also being independent of the rest of the house's heating system so as to save on energy bills. The bathroom towel rail can therefore be equipped with dual fuel capabilities, meaning that they can run on either electricity or with the central heating system, or they can run as purely electric or central heating based. This gives towel rail customers a range of options to suit their property needs.

Space saver

The economy of space is the name of the game with bathrooms. In a bathroom, most of the walls are taken up by utilities. With a bath, shower, wash basin and toilet, you may feel cramped already, and with a towel rail added, you’re looking at a bad room for claustrophobia. The towel rail gives you the opportunity to invest in a vertical radiator, meaning that less wall space is taken up with just as much heat coming in.

A variety of materials

The variety of material which comes with a towel rail knows no bounds. With a range of finishes and colours to choose from, the towel rail can well and truly suit your tastes and styles.


Affordable and luxurious

On top of all this, a heated towel rail is a way for you to enjoy luxury at an affordable price. Remember those cold winter mornings? The heating has just got going, the house is still freezing and you want to have that comforting shower before work. It’s only after a few minutes, zoning out, staring out at the cloudy sky that you realise you’re “me time” has overrun and you’re going to be late for work. To make things worse, you’re dreading the cold hard shock of stepping from the warmth of the shower and into the chilly depths of the bathroom floor. To be honest, you’re tempted to just stay in the shower and call off sick for work, that’s how at ease you feel in the shower. If it wasn’t for water bills and the hard facts of paying the rent, you’d probably stay in till your skin went beyond wrinkly. This is the beauty of the towel rail, giving you a soft embrace in the warm towel you draped over it, before your shower, cushioning the hard fall into the day.
