Towel warmers have been in vogue
since the 20th century. However we shall not go back to that period
but delve on the types of towel warmers available today and why electric towel
warmers have become so popular. Actually heated towel rails generally use two
types of technology (either of the two). A towel warmer rack may be hydronic
powered or electric powered. In terms of efficiency, a hydronic towel warmer
rack is better because here heat is derived from the hot water that flows
through the pipes. For a long time hydronic towel warmers have been the most
preferred towel warmers. However installation is quite difficult because a
hydronic towel warmer requires access to a boiler.
Nowadays a majority of homeowners
prefer to have electric towel warmers because these are easy to install and
replace. You just have to plug it into a 120 volts power outlet. Consumption of
electricity is also less. In fact most electric towel warmers consume
electricity that is even less than what a conventional light bulb consumes.
Coming to the design factor, these warmers are available in both traditional
and contemporary designs. Leading stores like Home Depot or even online shops
display a wide range of towel warmers.
Modern heated towel rails are
also available in different colours and shapes. You can select colours like
brass, white, chrome, silver and bronze. Regarding shapes, you can choose from
shapes like spiral, basket or ladder. If you look around, you will come across
models that have compartments. These can either be at the bottom or top. You
can use the same to store things.
So if you are thinking of buying a
towel warmer rack then go for an electric one. As explained above electric heated
towel rails are more convenient than the hydronic ones. Check out and
familiarize yourself with the function and design. Choose something that is
very efficient and it should match the décor of your bathroom.
Towel warmers enable you to
experience the comfort of drying off with a dry and warm towel after a
refreshing bath. It is no longer considered as a luxurious product that costs a
fortune. It is essential and also affordable. Most homeowners today have one in
their bathrooms because apart from the comfort factor there are also multiple
benefits that you can enjoy with electric towel warmers.
