Which type of Valve should be used?
There are only two types of heated towel warmer valves to choose from.
Straight valves are the ideal choice for when the inlets are positioned at the foot of the towel rack and pipes protrude from the floor. Angled valves are necessitated should the water require diversion at a 90 degree angle. This tends to be the case when pipes and valve inlets are positioned at the side of the radiator.
What other options are there?
You can also choose between manual or thermostatic valves.
Thermostatic valves incorporate an adjustable temperature wheel and are typically more energy efficient than their manual counterparts, as they can be set to your preferred temperature as and when you like.
Which Valve best suits my Heated Towel Warmer?
There is a wide variety of different styles available, and you can select which type will best suit your heated towel warmer. For instance, minimalist valves are better suited to modern designer hydronic towel warmers.
What is a BTU and how many are required?
BTU is the abbreviation for British Thermal Unit, which is a measure of the towel rack’s heat output. Simply put, the higher the number the bigger and better the heat output. To gain an accurate assessment of how many BTUs are required to comfortably heat your room, use our BTU Calculator.
How do I work my Pipe Centers out?
It is a very simple task to work out your pipe centers, and is done in the same way as it would be for designer radiators. Use a tape measure to record the distance from the center of the inlet and the outlet pipes.
For heated towel warmers that feature valve inlets at the side, it can be a more arduous task to work out the center.
Measure the distance from the inlet center and outlet pipes with the attached valves.
