Customer has asked for a towel warmer to be replaced, they want a designer radiator, anthracite colour, and still be able to hang towels on it. the wall space is limited. 400mm wide rad is the max it will take, preferably with bottom entry straight valves. Between 1200-1400 height.

I cant find anything, anyone able to help?
Thanks
 
No worries mate, I still see the same customer and they say the towels dry much better on the hooks anyway
 
These any good DQ Heating fitted a couple aluminium powder coated . Kop

Just mentioning...
Check the Ts & Cs of these rads regarding hanging damp towels.
Yes, we all know that's what they are for, but all ali or steel (not stainless) rads T&C I've read specifically state they NOT for wet/damp towels. They are for WARMING dry towels.
Just make sure in your supply contract you point that out so when in 18 mths time they come back to you cos its a rusted hulk you're covered.
 
Thanks KoP, they look good, I will see if there is a suitable size. I have found a couple of others so will send pics to the customer later.

YorkshireDave good points thanks. Will make sure customer is aware.
