How do I pick the right size and heat output for your bathroom?

Start by measuring the wall area where the radiator will sit and the number of towels you want to dry. This range offers widths from about 200mm up to 1800mm and heights from around 420mm to 1800mm, so you can pick a compact 500mm wide model for a cloakroom or a tall 1600–1800mm unit for a family bathroom. Heat outputs are grouped into bands (1–999, 1000–1999, 2000–2999 BTU and higher), so match the radiator’s BTU to your room size and the output you need for both heating and towel warming. If you’re unsure, choose a model with a higher listed BTU within your available wall space to ensure sufficient warmth.

Will a central heating towel radiator work all year or only when the heating is on?

A central heating towel radiator connects to your home’s hot water system and will heat only when your central heating is running. If you need warm towels in summer or when the boiler is off, look at the small selection of dual fuel models or electric alternatives; dual fuel lets you use both central heating and electricity. Most of the range here are central heating units (about 362 listings), so plan according to how often you run your heating.

Which panel profile is best for drying towels and saving space?

Bar profiles give the most practical hanging space and make it easy to slot towels between rails, while curved designs add depth so towels hang more freely. Flat panels are the sleekest visually but offer fewer rails for hanging, so they suit bathrooms where style matters more than towel capacity. For a narrow wall, choose a tall, slim unit — the range includes many heights up to 1800mm — to maximise hanging room without taking up floor space.

Which finish should you pick for longevity and to match bathroom fittings?

Chrome-plated finishes are highlighted for extending the radiator’s life and offer a classic, low-maintenance look that pairs well with chrome taps. Brushed brass and other coloured finishes such as matt black or anthracite are also available if you want to coordinate with brass or dark fixtures; for example, brushed brass models complement brass taps and handles. If durability and easy cleaning are priorities, chrome is a sensible, long-lasting choice.

Should you choose a vertical or a horizontal towel radiator for your layout?

Choose vertical (taller) radiators when floor space is tight but wall height is available; the catalogue includes many taller sizes such as 1200mm, 1600mm and 1800mm that give lots of hanging room. Horizontal radiators suit runs beneath windows or wider walls and are commonly offered in widths around 500mm and 600mm. For instance, a 1600 x 500mm vertical unit is excellent for a narrow ensuite, whereas a 1200 x 600mm horizontal model fits neatly under a window in a standard-sized bathroom.
