Hello everyone,

we are currently building our semi-detached house. We decided on underfloor heating on all floors (except the basement).

The developer will definitely install a towel radiator in the bathroom. Connected to the heating circuit.

I am now wondering if I can really get it warm. The supply temperature in underfloor heating is very low. So as a heater, the towel radiator will not be suitable. Do you think it will at least be enough for warm towels or quick drying of them?

I fear a similar problem in the basement. We have had a heater prepared in both rooms there (standard radiators). Will I be able to get them warm? So that it is at least enough to accommodate guests there occasionally (in case of emergency)?

Thank you very much! I am curious to hear what you say. The developer must have thought of something (?).

No, it does not get warm. Underfloor heating runs at around +/- 30 degrees, which is not enough for normal radiators. The towels probably dry there like on a drying rack.

Underfloor heating and regular radiators/towel radiators together is not good.

Can you take that out?
We also had one in the standard, but we had it removed due to our heating choice. For that, we were credited around 500€.
