Braddan Dual Fuel Thermostatic Towel Rail
The Braddan dual fuel thermostatic stainless steel towel rail is perfect for drying towels and heating the room. Stainless steel towel rails are superior to the more commonly used chrome versions. This is because stainless steel offers better heat emission, resulting in higher outputs and more efficient heating. Also, stainless steel is harder wearing which means its less likely to degrade and rust over time.
This towel radiator is made from quality grade 304 stainless steel and highly polished to a fluid mirror like finish. The overall quality is eye-catching when compared with cheaper alternatives. The Braddan is a thicker and more substantial towel rail, protected from defects such as rusting and pinhole leaks.
The Braddan has a flat ladder design with 22mm horizontal bars. The cross bars have spacing between groups, leaving plenty of room to hang and dry towels. We offer a comprehensive 10-year guarantee on this long-lasting towel rail for your peace of mind.
Dual Fuel – Year Round Heat
Dual Fuel towel rails can be heated from the central heating system or an electric element. Therefore you can still use the towel rail even when the central heating system is off. This is ideal if you want to dry towels in the summer.
- Dual Fuel – Electric Mode (With the R3 Thermostatic Element)
The R3’s state of the art technology is cleverly integrated into the element to ensure tidy installation. All the elements functions are housed into a single unit. No additional connections are needed.
To use in electric mode, you simply tighten one of the dual fuel valves until it is closed and switch the element on.
The R3 has all features that you could ever need. 7-day time-control alongside the adjustable temperature control for the room or radiator. Meeting the LOT20 ECO Design energy efficiency regulations. All settings can be changed with the user-friendly remote control.

- Dual Fuel Valves – Central Heating Mode
With the electric element turned off, your dual fuel towel rail becomes like any other radiator in the house. When the central heating is switched on, the towel rail warms up.
Dual Fuel Assembly
Our angled dual fuel radiator valves are a study and well made, composed of solid brass with chrome plating. The valves are screwed into the bottom of the towel rail’s vertical pipes. The electric element is then screwed into the bottom of one of the dual fuel valves. The opposing valve has a blank plug connected to the remaining socket. The central heating pipes connect at a 90 degree angle to the towel rail. So they can come straight out of the inside of the wall, or run horizontally along the wall to connect to the valves.
Alternative Dual Fuel Valve Option
If you need the central heating pipes to connect to the towel rail vertically, by coming up out of the floor, we can supply our alternative dual fuel valve kit on request. This consists of two straight radiator valves and two t-pieces. The t-pieces are inserted into the towel rail first, and the valves attach the their right angled socket, allowing the dual fuel towel rail to accept pipes from below.
