To the wife's delight I'm finally about to start 'doing up' the bathroom. It hasn't been touched the 35yrs the house has been built and is looking a little jaded to say the least.
Eventually it will be a wetroom and we've decided to fit one of those fancy towel radiator things. My question is how do I go about choosing one. I don't mean in terms of its output but in terms of quality. There are so many to choose from, what materials/construction type should I be looking for? Am I ok with a £60 job from Screwfix or should I be looking at a branded item costing twice that?
Also, does anyone have any advice on the best way to plumb it in? The bathroom will have a heated floor (electric) and I'm wondering if I should add the towel rad to the CH system along with an electric element and thermostat on a timer for summer or plumb the towel rad so that its on when there is demand for HW thus giving warmed towels in the summer.
Sorry for all the questions but I want to do it right so I don't have to do it for another 35yrs!!
