In addition to the underfloor heating, we also have an electric towel radiator. If it is on for half an hour, you can already notice a significant difference.

We are satisfied with our choice.

Interesting how similar the topics are for many. We were also recommended a towel radiator for the bathroom, which is heated with underfloor heating. We were also told that this is a good additional heater. Well, a towel radiator costs about 1500,-. It is always the question of what is luxury and what really makes sense, also in terms of consumption. Maybe an additional radiator is also useful!?

Very noble towel radiator for 1500 € - so far many have said that they are simply difficult to clean and have little effect
We are currently planning to omit them (ours would have only cost 160 € each + installation).

Yes, the installation is included in the mentioned price. I am considering maybe leaving it out after all. It's more of a luxury item for me.

Normally, in the bathroom you have the problem that the outlet temperatures are higher and the heating surface is too small due to the bathtub and possibly the shower. This, combined with low flow temperatures, then means that, mathematically, additional heat sources are needed here. This has not much to do with luxury.

No, I meant the towel radiator, that is the luxury. An additional radiator would be more effective than the towel radiator.
