ᐅ Are towel warmers necessary or optional?

Created on: 25 Apr 2017 11:57

Hello,

We would like to skip a towel radiator in our small bathroom for the children (about 4 square meters (43 square feet)). Our architect suggested laying the underfloor heating pipes closer together instead. We have a gas heating system and a ventilation system. The plumber said that the room might not get warm enough without a towel radiator and recommended installing one. A temperature of 22 degrees Celsius (72°F) would be sufficient for us. Does anyone have a small bathroom with a shower and can share their experience regarding this?

Best regards,
Sabine

We have not planned for towel radiators. I have never had them before (except in hotels) and never missed them. So, they are not really necessary.
For us, this is one item to cross off the list. It can quickly save you a four-digit amount.

Actually, it goes like this:
The towel belongs to a person who intends to finish water application and should be handed fresh off the line through a hot roller iron.

We have one in the large bathroom just outside the shower. In 95% of cases, it is the practical towel holder for the shower towels. But: when you spend 2 hours outside in winter at 950m (3,120 ft) clearing snow by hand or with a snow blower, you look forward to a warm shower and then a warm towel! The temperature in the bathroom, like the rest of the house in winter, is 22-24°C (72-75°F), so we have it mainly for luxury purposes.

Or you can just stay outside and sit in the hot tub...
As long as we can distinguish between "necessary" and "desired," such luxury isn't excessive.
