Radiators and heated towel rails are great heat emitters and can be a huge help during the winter months.
However, they emit different amounts of heat and it might be better to use one than the other. We'll be discussing this in more detail in the next article.
Radiators are Powerful
A heated towel rail 800x400mm in size will radiate less heat than a radiator of the same size.
This is because a standard radiator has more surface area than a towel rack. It can hold more hot water, which allows it to release more heat into the space.
Double-panelled radiators with two rows of convector blades will increase the heat output.
Radiators are the best way to heat your rooms efficiently and effectively if your heating system is only thought of in terms of its heat output.
Heated Towel Rails can be very useful
A heated towel rail is not a good substitute for a radiator. In certain circumstances, however, it may make sense to install a towelrail.
Bathrooms and En-Suites
The most common location where heated towel rails can be installed is in bathrooms. They are incredibly useful in drying and heating towels.
It's not pleasant to wake up in the morning to find your towel still damp from the previous day. This can happen day after day. Your towels will start to smell and make what should have been a pleasant start to your day into a nightmare.
A towel rail in your bathroom will allow you to hang your towels neatly and eliminate the smelly, damp towels.
Utility rooms and kitchens
Heating towel rails are becoming more popular in kitchens and utility rooms. This is an addition to and not a replacement for radiators.
Other items can smell if they are left to get damp like tea towels or cloths. A towel rail is a handy solution.
In addition, utility rooms and kitchens are frequently where laundry is done. Heated towel rails can be used to dry smaller clothing items such as socks and underwear.
The best heating option For You
Radiators should be considered the best way to heat your home. However, heated towel rails can be used for specific purposes and provide heat localized to your area.
