Radiator to heat the bathroom with style

A towel warmer, whether hydraulic or electric, is one of the most useful accessories for the bathroom if you are looking for a product that efficiently heats the room with a touch of style.

In fact, the heated towel rail combines functionality and design without sacrificing ease of use and environmental comfort.

Function of the heated towel rail

The towel warmer, or heated towel rail, has the main function of quickly heating and drying the towels and bathrobes that are placed on it after use.

To all intents and purposes, however, it is also a real radiator which is used to heat the entire bathroom and which is also able to respond to an aesthetic need.

Especially for smaller bathrooms, the heated towel rail allows you to optimize space, guaranteeing a bathroom that is always at the right temperature and towels always ready for use.

Types of towel warmers

As we have already seen in other articles, towel warmers can be divided, on the basis of their operation, into electric radiators, water radiators and mixed-function radiators, all characterized by carefully studied designs and available in many colours.

The most widespread type is certainly the water heated towel rail. This towel warmer is integrated into the heating system of the rest of the radiators in the home and works in the same way as other radiators.

In fact, the operation is the same as the other radiators and is controlled by the control unit or by the thermostat which manages the switching on and off of the rest of the system.

An electric towel warmer, on the other hand, is usually used as a supplementary source of heating when traditional water heating alone cannot meet the energy needs of the home.

It is widely used, for example, in condominiums with a centralized heating system where you want to have an additional heat source in the bathroom without having to go and intercept the pipes of the condominium system: in fact, the electric towel warmer must simply be connected to an electrical outlet and is extremely useful even in mid-season when the condominium central heating system is off.

It is a solution with very simple installation, also ideal for holiday homes or second homes where the presence is not continuous throughout the year.

Finally, we have the mixed-function towel warmers which, being both connected to the plumbing system and independent and connected to the electricity grid, guarantee excellent operation both in winter and in the mid-seasons.

Advantages of using a heated towel rail

A radiator allows you to have a smaller footprint with maximum functionality: it is in fact a wall-mounted heating accessory that is usually characterized by essential and thin lines that do not take up much space.

Even the eye wants its part and the towel warmer can be an extremely stylish solution. More and more attention in the bathroom is concentrated on design and the aesthetic aspect and it is for this reason that the main radiator manufacturers have included real design objects such as heated towel rails in their range.

A heated towel rail is easy to maintain, cleaning is very simple as is installation which, especially in the case of electric towel warmers, only requires wall plugs and an electrical connection.
