Why a heated towel rack makes a difference in summer
A heated towel rack in the bathroom is on everyone's wishlist in winter. Not only would it quickly dry your towel but it also warms it up for when you step out of the shower onto the freezing tiles.
However, a heated towel rack can also be of use throughout the humid summery months, too.
Humidity
We know that summer and heated towel rack sounds like an oxymoron, but despite the name, they are actually designed to dry more than warm.
Drying your towel in humidity can be a nightmare when it's still damp from the previous night. Heated towel racks come with temperature selectors which make it easy to dry in every season. You can drop the temp down on hot days and bump it right back up when winter rolls around again.
Save water and energy
Did you know that the running costs of a heated towel rail is less than that of a light bulb? This makes it extremely cost effective to enjoy a warm, dry towel. Towels dried on heated racks don’t need to be washed as regularly. Cutting down on regular washing can shave hours off laundry time and reduce your water usage.
Bathroom Hygiene
When it comes to the bathroom, it is inevitable to have the challenges of damp towels, no matter what the weather is outside. A hot shower with the fan can still produce a lot of moisture which inevitably leads to mould, and damp fabrics stored in the bathroom, like towels, aren’t as safe as you think.
Unless your space is well-ventilated, a heated towel rack is the best way to ensure towels remain mould-free. Having dry towels in the bathroom helps contribute to the overall hygiene of the room, minimising bacteria and mould issues which can be associated with damp towels.
