New build - rad to towel rail

[Scott_D]

I have been asked to change a rad to a towel rail in a new build bathroom

As you can imagine it’s 10mm plastic out the wall

Has anyone got an image of 10mm plastic into a towel rail so that I can show the customer how it will look if I just swap as they have asked?

Do I have any options other that opening the wall and changing to copper?

It’s bad but not as bad as I thought

Any suggestions for how it could be piped differently?

Depends where the studs are could pull the plate off and have a look etc then put the 10mm back in the wall and drill 2 new holes so they go straight into the valves

Don't think there's a different way to pipe it without damaging the wall. A better option would be a towel rail similar to this one that will help conceal the pipes better.

And use these in the straight rad valves to keep the pipes as tight to the rail as possible so they're barely visible.
