Dual Fuel Towel Radiators

Dual fuel radiators are predominantly variations of the towel radiator. As the name suggests, they can run on both water and electricity, making them better adapted to year-round use. Dual fuel radiators are particularly suited for use as heated towel rails because they are one of the few household utilities that need to be heated all year, no matter the weather.

This means that in winter, the radiator can be heated with water as with all your other radiators. However, in the summer, you can simply activate the electric element instead of having to turn on your central heating.

Dual fuel radiators are some of the more recent radiator designs, and this can be seen in their appearances. Utilising some of the latest design trends, they are ideal for modern households with sleek, contemporary bathrooms. The radiator will need to be treated like a standard radiator most of the time, and like all water-based radiators, it will at times need to bled properly in order to keep it in good working order.

Beyond this, you will find that dual fuel radiators are very similar to other towel radiator types. Their installation will probably prove difficult, especially to those who have never installed a radiator before.

This is another case where it is probably best to consult an expert for assistance when it comes to installation. Then you can be sure that the radiator is properly connected up to your pipework, while also being safe in the knowledge that the electrical system is ready to use when you need it.
