Radiator Valves for Heated Towel Rails
There are three types of radiator valves generally used
with ladder style heated towel rails. You can view our full
selection of heated
towel rail radiator valves here. Below are the most
popular types and brief descriptions.
Angled or Straight?
Angled - When coupled with a ladder style heated
towel rail angled valves are generally
used where the central heating feed and return pipes come
out of the wall. Angled valves offer the neatest finish
for your towel rail installation, especially when paired
with our sleeve kits featured
further down this page.
Straight - Whereas straight valves are
normally used where the pipe work comes up from the floor,
these can either be through the floor boards or along the
skirting and vertically up to the underside of the towel
rail and valves.
Manual or Thermostatic?
We most commonly sell manual valves with our heated
towel rails, but it is generally personal preference or
specified by your heating engineer.
Manual - radiator valves will allow you to control the flow
of water through the towel rail and thus the heat output.
Adjustment is simply made by turning the wheelhead of the
radiator valve, fully open will allow the most flow and
maximum heat output, the wheelhead can be turned down to
reduce the flow of water and thus the heat output of the
appliance.
Thermostatic - valves control heat output in a similar way
to the manual versions, but can be set to a suitable level
and will then adjust themselves to maintain a regulated
room temperature.
