Main Features:
Steel offers the lowest price tag compared to other materials, but it also offers the most diversity in terms of colour and style. Steel is malleable which allows towel rails to be efficient because they can be physically designed to better pass heat from the water inside to the space around them (this is a radiator's job after all, despite some thinking that its job is to “store” heat). The heat output is also good, the proof is in the pudding with this one - would steel be the most common radiator material if the heat output was rubbish? Steel is a highly durable material which is important as towel rails are going to be the victims of some knocks and bangs over time and you want them to withstand that.
StyleA curved ladder towel rail is as you would imagine - the ladder name signifies the run of horizontal tubes connected by two vertical tubes (these are called collectors), the “curve” simply means that these horizontal tubes curve outward. While this curve does ever so slightly increase the overall surface area, and therefore the heat output, compared to the straight version of the same size and range – its not worth shouting about. However, the curve does provide a benefit that many find rather useful, the design means that there is more room for towel storage and make feeding the towels through the ladder a little easier.
ColourBlack, the colour that always fits and never fades. This matt black powder painted towel rail is exactly what your home needs. Black radiators go well with anything. As a colour, there are few shades or hues that it does not complement. Whether providing effective shadow tones to an already dark background, or a striking contrast to more brightly coloured walls, black towel rails rarely look out of place. As well as suiting a great variety of home styles, black is a very forgiving shade. It won't show dust, dirt, or rust like white so you know they will look great well into the future.
Heat SourceThis central heating/hot water towel rail is one that is plumbed into your homes central heating system. Whether you have a Combi boiler, gravity fed (conventional) system or a system with a cylinder, you can install this heated towel rail.
AccessoriesThis towel rail has G1/2” connections at the base of either side of the towel rail and so the valves required will depend on your pipework (which is why they aren’t provided with the towel rail):
There are a few different types of valves available for you to choose from: Manual Valves provide easy on/off control – simply turn the valve by hand to allow the water from your central heating to pass through into the radiator or towel rail, just like a tap! These are commonly used with towel rails because of their ease, but that doesn’t mean you have to choose manual – unless your main boiler thermostat is located in your bathroom, which is unlikely. Thermostatic Valves provide multi temperature control of the radiators in your home – saving energy and money! These valves have sensor mechanisms inside that shut off the flow of hot water to the radiator when the room temperature reached the desired level!
All of our towel rails are supplied with everything required to hang the rail on the wall (brackets & masonry fixings) as well as a chrome bleed valve and blanking plug for the top of the rail. For ultimate style we recommend you also purchase some colour matching pipe covers, either match the colour to the towel rail or the valves!
When discussing heat outputs, the Delta rating is the difference between the temperature of the water inside the heating system and the desired temperature of the room.
In simple terms, this value is about heat loss. Heating a room only works, if the radiator output exceeds the heat loss of the room.
We use this calculation to make it easy to choose a radiator that will have a heat output that exceeds the heat loss of the room when connected to your heating system type.
If you don't know the room heat loss, you can use our calculator to find out.
Watts are our main unit of energy/power in the UK, commonly associated with lightbulbs and Home Energy performance certificates (EPCs).
BTUs are the unit of measurement used to portray a radiators heat output and a rooms heating requirement. 1 Watt is equal to 3.41 BTUs.
We buy radiators to heat our homes, right? So, we need a way of knowing if a radiator is powerful enough to heat the room that we are shopping for - Watts and BTUs provide us with a value that makes its easier to compare radiators and ultimately choose the right one for our heating requirement.

Stylish, works well, no issues whatsoever, fast delivery. I would purchase again, brilliant website, was really easy to navigate.
Easy to install, gets really hot and looks amazing
Looks really good, complements the rest of the room and really stands out!
I like the radiators very much, I bought two for a large bathroom, combined they gave the heat output I needed. They look stylish and are well made and I think will last many years. I saw in some other reviews people had trouble with leaks at the connections and I had the same problems. Neither the radiator or the connectors supplied with the valves (not supplied) had a stop on them so they would just keep on screwing in and would have dropped inside if I had gone that far. No amount of ptfe tape or sealant cured the problem. I solved it by buying tap extenders which screwed into the radiator giving a solid seal and then the valve screwed into that also giving a solid seal. Not very elegant but worked, maybe the manufacturer could supply a small bush that would cure this. Overall a very good price compared to other suppliers.
we are pleased with our new towel rail like the finish good quality would recommend this company
Ordered the Zennor electric towel rail for my downstairs utility room we had built. The radiator arrived in good time, when we came to get it installed it unfortunately didn’t work, every time it was turned on it would trip the electrics, it appeared that there was a faulty heating element. I contacted UKRadiator and explained the problem, I was advised to follow some simple steps and provide the information to them. They were really helpful and sent a replacement element to me the next working day. Since this has been replaced we have had no problem and the radiator works well. Great looking and finishes off the utility room.
Perfect description and quality, reliable seller
Exactly what I wanted, packaged well and delivered very fast. Would recommend.
