Aluminium radiators transfer the heat from the water to the air in the room faster than steel radiators. This means that they require less heated water from the boiler and will be faster to respond to changes in the room heat requirement, hence reducing any wasted heat. As aluminium radiators are fairly new, it is difficult to find quantifiable data about potential energy savings, especially as it will vary depending on location. However, some clever engineers we know estimate that using them could save 5-10% off your annual heating bill. Aluminium radiators also offer other environmentally friendly benefits. For one thing they are made of recycled material, so next time you recycle your drinks can, consider that it could end up as part of a new radiator. Also, because they have a lower water content, they can often be smaller than more traditional radiators. This can be useful when using them with low temperature heating systems, such as ground source heat pumps, because you do not need a large radiator to compensate for the lower water temperatures.

You’ve heard about these things but never bothered to do any research and find out whether or not they could be useful in your home. That’s understandable, since towel warmers are often considered an unnecessary accessory by some. However, when you get to know more about them, you tend to change your opinion. What it is First of all, you need to know what exactly a towel warmer is before you can decide whether you need one or not. Basically, it’s an appliances usually used in bathroom, but which can also be added to other spaces rich in moisture. It serves you by drying off your damp towels and keeping the environment clean and mildew-free. How it works. Towel warmers are of two basic types. They can be electric or hydronic and they are both highly efficient at warming the rail from inside out. The electric towel warmers operate independently from the heating system. They contain electric-powered low watt elements. Some use a dry element which heats wire installed in the tubes of the rails while others use a wet element in order to heat the oil or water inside the towel rail. The hydronic ones have to be connected to either the hot-water plumbing or radiant-heating systems in order to work. Hot water runs through the bars just like in the case of a radiator. Why you need one Let’s put it this way: when you get out of the shower, you want a nice, warm towel to wrap around you, not a damp and cold one. It’s the same thing when you get out of the tub. But towel warmers aren’t useful only in the bathroom. You can also have them in mudrooms or entryways so you can keep your coats, gloves and hats dry. What the advantages are Towel warmers are really versatile and their use is not limited to just bathrooms. They can also be used for the entryway, mudroom, basement, laundry room or even for the bedroom if you think you’d benefit from their presence there.
