Straight Towel Rails protrude less into your bathroom whilst Curved versions allow some extra room for the towels.
The difference in output between both versions is unnoticeable.
Select a finish - Chrome or White
Chrome Towel Rails will most likely match better the finish of the brassware of your bathroom; however White coated versions have higher outputs, usually about a 30% higher. This is because powder coating transmits heat better than chrome plating.
Select a size
Depending on whether you are replacing an old towel rail or doing a new installation you be restricted by the width of existing pipework.
The most common widths for towel rails are 400, 500 & 600mm and the most common heights are 700, 800, 1200, 1500 & 1800mm.
If there are no size restrictions you may use our Heat Output Calculator to find out which size can be closer to what you require. Keep in mind that towel warmers are not meant to be the primary heat source for bathrooms which require a vast amount of heating (ie. external walls, poor insulation, etc.)
