Electric Towel Radiator FAQs
Are electric towel rails expensive to run?
Electric towel rails are generally considered to be energy-efficient and cost-effective heating solutions. Compared to traditional central heating systems, an electric towel radiator can be more economical since they allow you to heat specific areas, such as your bathroom, without having to heat the entire house. How efficient they run will depend on the room they are installed in, so use our BTU calculator to find the right option for the room size and features. Additionally, if you have an electric towel rail with a thermostat or timer built-in, this allows you to control when and how long they operate for, further contributing to energy savings.
Do electric towel rails need to be plumbed in?
No, electric towel rails do not need to be plumbed in. Unlike classic towel rails that rely on hot water from the central heating system, electric towel rails operate independently and do not require any plumbing connections. They are designed to be plugged into an electrical outlet, making them easy to install and suitable for both new and existing bathrooms, kitchens, and other rooms you may find useful.
Do electric towel rails heat the room?
Electric towel rails are primarily designed to heat and warm towels, providing a comfortable and luxurious experience after a bath or shower. They can also help to heat the room to an ambient temperature, but this will depend on the requirements for the room and the BTU output. For example, a small bathroom may be a sufficient size, but larger rooms may need something more powerful to effectively be the primary heating source. Use our BTU heat loss calculator to determine the best options for the room.
Can you put wet clothes on an electric towel rail?
It is generally safe to put damp towels and small clothing items on an electric towel rail for drying purposes. Electric towel rails are specifically designed to handle the moisture from wet towels without any issues. However, it’s essential to avoid placing excessively wet or dripping items on the rail, as this can overload the heating element and may not dry the clothes effectively. Always follow guidelines and recommendations regarding weight limits and usage to ensure safe and efficient operation.
