Heated Towel Racks: A Touch of Luxury in Your Bathroom ? George ...

From spa baths to whirlpool tubs to singing and dancing shower cubicles and even heated towel racks, the modern bathroom can be fitted with a number of luxury items that can transform it.

Bathrooms used to be that little room in the house where we went to clean, groom and relieve ourselves. Now all this has changed, and the bathroom can become the luxury room where we escape from everyone for a while. Heated towel racks may sound like a silly extravagance, but there?s nothing like stepping out of the shower or bath and wrapping yourself in a delightfully warm towel.

Benefits of A Heated Towel Rack

Heated towel racks provide you with a simple pleasure: a nice warm toasty towel that adds to the experience of preparing for or recuperating from a hectic day.

They are a practical alternative or addition to whirlpool baths, water jets, home spas and soothing halogen light fittings. All are meant to give you that calm and soothing effect, helping you relax and rejuvenate, but the heated towel rack has some perks that may surprise. You and your family will experience a number of benefits when you install one of these racks. Here are a few:

* Hygiene ? Heated towel racks help to keep towels warm and dry so there is little time for mildew or allergens to develop.

* Comfort ? If you have ever experienced what it is like stepping out of a nice warm shower or bath during winter when it is bitingly cold, only to be greeted by chilly air and a cold piece of terrycloth, you will appreciate warm towels. It is so much better to have a nice warm towel to wrap around your body to continue the spa-like experience, than having to end it shivering.

*?Heated towel racks are designed to keep the area within the vicinity it is installed nice and warm as well. Once it is strategically placed, you can step out of your bath into a warm air pocket, and reach then for your nice warm towel to finish up that lovely bathroom experience.

* Doctors Recommendation ? Doctors recommend the use of heated towels as opposed to room temperature ones to assist with reducing stress, increasing circulation and maintaining a warm and consistent body temperature.

* Drying Smaller Items of Clothing and Cloth ? Your heated towel rack can also serve as cloth warmer for your home. It can be used for drying items of clothing that are not suitable for the dryer, and for drying swim suits that will not be washed immediately because they will be reused soon. You can also use it to warm cloths and hand towels used for facials or for stress reducing treatments or other medical reasons such as wrapping swollen hands/feet or tending to earaches and headaches.

* Helps Save Energy ? If your bathroom is not too large, it could actually keep the entire area warm. Reduce you reliance on an efficient heater and install a modern towel warmer.

Heating racks are available in a range of sizes designs and styles, allowing you can select one that is best for your bathroom space. They can be used in both large bathrooms and single toilets. Heated towel rack is one of life?s affordable luxuries you should indulge.
