Radiators & heated towel rails??

6 years ago

Where do people source radiators from? There are so many decisions to make with everything in our refurb and this is one I haven't got round to yet! We have oil central heating. Thanks!

We've recently been through a very similar process and have found Best Heating super helpful with a great range of products, good customer service (even when I've changed my mind on things) and the quality has been excellent across radiators and towel rails.

Hope it helps!

Hi,

We informed our plumbing contractor regarding the designs and what we wanted; he then purchased them for us from the trade stores/ plumbing bases he uses.

Which type of heated towel rails should I install
Q

Hi, I'm not sure why a radiator heated from the central heating would not be permitted. I'm not aware of any water regulations that would stop it (that's not saying there aren't!). What reason was given? Will the radiator be directly over the bath or on the wall lower than the bath? Electrically, there are zones in a bathroom. Any electrical equipment placed inside a zone must be suitable for that zone. Here is an explanation of the zones: http://electrical.theiet.org/wiring-matters/53/section-701/index.cfm I suspect that the radiator would be in zone 1, possibly zone 2. The radiator (and wiring supplying it) to be suitable for that zone. My thoughts are to check with a radiator manufacturer about installing a plumbed radiator next to the bath and see what they say.

I had new towel rails a few years ago, they worked perfectly for a while then stopped. Did all the usual but nothing. Then had a power flush and viola they work!

Hi Tracey. I grew up in an identical chalet style house in the 70s so this caught my attention. I recently watched one of the George Clarke programmes on Channel 4 where they adapted a house that was identical to yours. It was an amazing result. Might be worth having a look on the web or trying to find the episode on All 4 to find it and maybe find some inspiration. Good luck

We use Screwfix as they are amazing value and open late in the evening. Our plumber just turns up and fits them - it has saved us a fortune. Even the cheaper ones get good reviews and best of all they are not white, they are a slightly warmer off white which means they blend easily.

Check out a manufacturer called Radox. They produce some fantastic products, and they are guaranteed for 10 years. Many of the cheap options will have issues with pitting or flaking chrome within a year or two.

For towel rails we were recommended The Sussex Range. They are made from stainless steel so they won't rust or corrode. 25 year guarantee. Our plumber said the quality was excellent.

The most important thing is to make sure you have got calculations of the BTU outputs needed for each room and choose your rad sizes accordingly. Your plumber should be able to advise. Alternatively the good builders merchants will have plumbing advisers who will be able to calculate the required outputs if you provide the info they need on room sizes and construction (eg cavity wall or not, outside or inside walls, glazing type ) and will advise which rads will meet your needs.

Hi Claire,

Worth taking a look at Stelrad.. they have a variety of rads depending on the look/feel you're planning to achieve.

For more 'designer' rads, some of our clients have bought from B&Q - surprising range to be fair.
