Towel Racks
ABOUT TOWEL RACKS
Towel racks may be heated or unheated. Heated towel racks are of two main types: electric and hydronic. Hydronic towel racks have to be permanently fixed to the wall or floor, and are plumbed into the house's hot water supply. Many hydronic towel racks are of classic 19th or early 20th Century design, with fat pipes and bold fixings. Electrically heated towel racks may be fixed to the wall, or may be portable and floor-standing.
Simple unheated towel racks may also either be wall mounted or floor standing. In all cases towel racks are available with either chrome or brass finish.
The leading towel rack suppliers, described below the panel of sponsored links, have comprehensive websites, with information on all aspects of towel racks, including online catalogs, colours and materials for towel racks.
