Fed up with walking into your bathroom to find a damp towel?
Homeowners face this problem quite a lot of the time, while it’s not a life threatening one but is simply an annoying one. The answer and best solution to avoid this is to install a heated towel rail in the bathroom.
They have become increasingly popular throughout the housing industry offering the room a feel of luxury, and a great practical way to heat the room and dry towels after they have been used. These products are a fantastic alternative to radiators and are space saving.
You might think that the heated towel rails will be a little too hot in the summer, this isn’t the case as for starters we live in the UK and we all know that the weather here is so unpredictable, and secondally they still have all the benefits all year-round and don’t require a cold day to do their job.
DSB have put together a few points to consider when planning on installing a heated towel rail:
- Is your bathroom big enough?
- Make sure you find a reputable installer to ensure you get a great finished result
- Consider the distance between the pipe centres for both of the radiators
- The heated towel rail can be fitted to your existing heating system, or choose an electric wall mounted option
There are so many styles to choose from you really are spoilt for choice. If your bathroom has a contemporary feel to it, a modern chrome ladder rail will fit right in. Some other designs are quirky and can be finished in various colours to provide you with that bespoke look.
If you have a classic bathroom style where period features set the tone, there are traditional heated towel rails available and will definitely be suited to your tastes. These are either a traditional column design, also known as a column radiator, which is integrated into the middle of the frame, or a more simplistic bar design for more subtle bathrooms.
Heated towel rails are a great accompaniment to a large bathroom, and are absolutely ideal for smaller bathrooms and en-suites. They will easily fit into each of these settings without taking up too much space in the process.
While they heat the bathroom and are a very practical investment, they are also a great way to finish off the look of the bathroom. They can add certain charm and character, and harmonise with the rest of your fittings and décor, creating a contrast that will improve the visual impact your bathroom has.
