Stainless steel water heated towel rails
Stainless steel water heated towel rails used to be installed in luxury houses and apartments. Ukrainian manufacturers and the Navin online store have made high-quality plumbing fixtures accessible to almost everyone. If you have built a house or purchased an apartment without equipment, it’s time to buy a stainless steel heated towel rail for your bathroom.
Advantages of NAVIN heated towel rails:
• High strength.
• Good heat dissipation.
• Corrosion resistance.
• Attractive appearance.
Steel is a durable metal that is superior to copper and aluminum in mechanical characteristics. If accidental damage to the pipes is likely, for example when installing in a public bath or sauna, stainless steel heated towel rails are best suited. At home, strong pipes will also likely last for many decades without repair.
Due to its resistance to corrosion, pipe walls can be made thinner than in regular steel plumbing fixtures. Their thickness does not exceed 2 mm. Thermal conductivity improves, the weight and cost of equipment decreases. Towels and wet laundry dry faster.
Even without painting, the stainless steel heated towel rail looks great. The sparkling chrome surface brings a touch of modernity to the interior. In this case, the bare metal radiates maximum heat into the environment. When things are not hung to dry on the crossbars, the dryer plays the role of a regular heating radiator.
Characteristics of heated towel rails
When choosing a suitable device, you should pay attention to the following characteristics:
• shape - ladder, coil or design radiator;
• possibility of rotation;
• connection - bottom, side (right, left), diagonal or central;
• color - chrome, white, or any to order according to the RAL card;
• Power, W);
• working temperature;
• operating and test pressure;
• weight and overall dimensions;
• presence of plugs and Mayevsky tap.
The standard connecting size is 1/2". A stainless steel heated towel rail can be purchased together with valve taps . A useful additional accessory is a removable towel hook. The kit includes the necessary fasteners. It will not be difficult for a qualified craftsman to install the dryer in any room.
The power of the device, that is, the energy emitted per unit time, depends on the diameter of the pipes and the number of sections. For the needs of one family, 180 W is sufficient. In common areas the needs are increasing. If you have doubts about your choice, you should contact an online store consultant.
For Ukrainian products of the Navin brand, the buyer receives long-term insurance. The 10-year warranty applies to individual parts and the complete product.
Connection and operation
A stainless steel water heated towel rail can withstand significantly greater loads than aluminum or copper. However, during installation you should be careful not to expose the device to impacts or rough tools.
It is better to entrust installation to a professional. In principle, a home handyman with some experience in plumbing work can successfully handle the task. But a professional plumber will install it faster, with a guarantee of quality.
It should also be remembered that the stainless steel included in the heated towel rail is not as resistant to aggressive chemicals as plastic. Towels are dried on the bars after bathing, and linen after washing using regular detergents. But you should not hang rags contaminated with strong chemicals. If heated towel rails are used correctly for their intended purpose, stainless steel remains attractive for a long time.
The stainless steel heated towel rail is securely mounted on a wall or other permanent base. It is recommended to use only the fasteners included in the package. For additional strengthening, use similar fasteners recommended by experts.
To release air when filling with coolant, open the Mayevsky tap with a special key. Stainless steel water heated towel rails function as full-fledged parts of the heating system and require the same attention.
Combined models
The stainless steel component of the heated towel rail itself is a passive heat transfer element. The active heat source is a coolant heated by a boiler or a built-in electric heating element . Combined devices combine both types of heating. The user sets the operating mode and adjusts the power, if such a function is available.
It is advisable to use electricity in the warm season, when the heating system is turned off. At the end of spring and beginning of autumn there are cool days when towels do not dry well on clotheslines. In baths and saunas, even in the summer heat, it is necessary to quickly dry numerous accessories. But with hot water, the need for electricity disappears. Therefore, the optimal choice is a water device.
