Factors to Consider When Buying a Designer Heated Towel Rail
Before you settle on a particular designer towel rail, there are a couple of factors that you should consider, which will help you choose a model that meets all of your installation, heating, and aesthetic requirements. They include:
Heat output
If maintaining a comfortable temperature in your bathroom is important to you, one key factor to consider is the heat output of the towel rail you choose. Ideally, the model you go for should meet or slightly exceed the heating requirements of your space, which will ensure the room stays warm while your wet towels get dried efficiently.
Height and width
Designer heated towel rails vary in size to suit different bathroom layouts and heating requirements. So, measure the wall or floor space you have and choose a model that is not only capable of heating your bathroom, but also fits comfortably within the space you have available.
Material
The material your designer heated towel rail is made of will influence its durability, heat output, how quickly it can heat up, how well it can retain heat, and how resistant it is to moisture. So, take the different materials into consideration and choose a towel rail in a material that best suits your bathroom conditions, heating requirements, and aesthetic preferences.
Design and colour
To make sure your heated towel rail complements the aesthetic of your bathroom, you need to take its design and colour into account. To help you find a model that ties well with the overall look of your bathroom, at H&P, we carry designer heated towel rails in many different styles and finishes.
Installation requirements
Not all designer heated towel rails are suitable for all types of installation. Some models may require wall mounting, while others are designed for floor mounting or specific pipework and valve configurations. For smooth installation, check the installation requirements of the towel rail you like in advance to ensure it's compatible with your space and heating system.
Designer vs Standard Heated Towel Rails: Which to Choose?
If you're trying to decide between a designer and a standard heated towel rail, your choice will largely depend on your functional requirements, style preferences, and budget.
Standard heated towel rails are typically chosen for their simplicity and affordability. They can still dry your wet towels, heat your space, and complement the look of your bathroom without drawing too much attention to themselves.
In comparison, beyond their functional and practical benefits, designer heated towel rails are often chosen for their visual impact. They typically feature more distinctive shapes, premium finishes, and contemporary design elements that allow them to stand out.
Installing Your Designer Heated Towel Rail Correctly
Installing your designer heated towel rail correctly is crucial for prolonging its lifespan, ensuring safe operation, and achieving efficient heating performance.
In addition to following all of the instructions provided by the manufacturer, here are a couple of extra steps that will help you avoid some of the most common mistakes and ensure a smooth and successful installation process:
- Take accurate measurements to find out how much available space you have
- Make sure the wall or floor can support the weight of the towel rail before installation
- Allow sufficient clearance for the valves and pipe connections
- If possible, use fixings and brackets recommended by the manufacturer
- Once installed, bleed the towel rail to remove trapped air and ensure even heat output
How to Look After Your Designer Heated Towel Rail
To preserve the look of your designer heated towel rail and prolong its lifespan, regular care and maintenance are essential. The good news is that most models require very little upkeep to stay in good condition. All you typically need to do to look after your designer towel rail is:
- Wipe the surface of the towel rail regularly using a soft cloth
- Bleed the towel rail from time to time to maintain even heat output
- Check the valves and pipe connections for signs of stiffness or leaks
When cleaning the towel rail, make sure that you never use any abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the finish and make it less visually appealing.
FAQs About Designer Heated Towel Rails
Yes, heated designer towel rails can be a suitable choice for bathrooms of all sizes and interior styles. That said, the number of options that you'll have to choose from will vary depending on the size and layout of your bathroom, the room's heating requirements, and your aesthetic preferences.
To choose the right size designer towel rail, you need to take into consideration your bathroom's heating requirements and how much available wall or floor space there is for the towel rail.
Then, simply look for a designer towel rail that can comfortably fit within the space without obstructing other fixtures and has a heat output that's suitable for the size and layout of your bathroom.
No, they don't. High-quality designer heated towel rails require very little upkeep to look good, dry your wet towels, and heat your bathroom efficiently.
We don't typically recommend it, but it is possible. If you choose to repaint a designer heated towel rail, make sure that you prepare the surface properly and use paint that is specifically designed for high-temperature metal surfaces.
The average lifespan of a designer heated towel rail is between 10 and 20 years. Some of the factors that can shorten or prolong the lifespan of your towel rail include:
- The material it's made of
- The quality of construction
- How well it's maintained over the years
- Whether it was installed properly or not
- How often it's used
