There are two types of technology that are
used in heating towel warmers: the electric or the hydronic. They get
their heat from hot water that runs through the pipes that are used to
warm or dry the towels. The problem is that the hydronic warmers are
more difficult to install as they require access to a boiler of some
type. Many homeowners nowadays prefer the electric model that can be
plugged into a 120 volt outlet for easier installation and replacement.
In addition, most models consume less energy than a light.
The design of electric towel warmers range from traditional to
contemporary, and you can shop around on online shops to find the right
model for your home. You can choose from many different finishes such as
bronze, chrome. When it comes to the shape of your warmer, you have
plenty of options; from a ladder-like shape to a spiral shape to a
basket shape electric towel warmer. There are also some medals that have
compartments at the top or the bottom for storage purposes.
Electric towel warmers are the most practical and easiest to
install. They're also for sauna use, kitchen use, or anywhere else that
120 volts is available. Because they're electric (as opposed to hydronic
towel warmers that require a plumbing connection and can double as a
radiator) they can be used all year round, whereas hydronic models are
not used in the warmer months of the year when warm water is not used to
heat the home or business facility. There are a few variations, even
among the electric towel warmer models. One popular, moderately priced
model uses a water and glycol mix to warm the towels, yet requires only
a standard electrical connection.
High quality electric models ship ready to be hardwired into the
building's main electrical system, but they can also be easily converted
to a plug-in connection. Better yet, they're designed to operate
continuously and use about the same amount of energy as one or two light
bulbs. Many popular examples operate at a safe temperature and feature a
thermostat that will switch the unit off if it gets warmer.
Electric towel warmers are more popular that the plumbed in variety and
the central heating system rails that are also called as dual rails.
Electric towel warmers work on electricity and can be switched off and
on as you need. These come in various shapes and sizes to choose
according to our bathroom. Attractive designs and colors augment the
glamour of your bathroom. More over, electric towel rails being safe and
easy in their function, they are becoming increasingly popular and high
in demand, to complete every bathroom.
