If your bathroom just can’t be warm enough for you, especially in the winter months, consider treating yourself to an electric towel warmer. Not only is it heating your towels, it’s also making a cold space warmer. So, you’ll appreciate the luxury of stepping out of the shower or bathtub and wrapping yourself in a warm towel while adding heat to a drafty bathroom.
In days past, towel warmers were plumbed into the hot water heating system of older expensive homes. Today, towel warmers operate on standard 120-volt electrical service so they are more attainable and designed for anyone’s bathroom. You’ll find them freestanding or wall-mounted. Choose a design that is freestanding if you have floor space, or a wall-mounted unit if you have more wall space than floor space. They complement any style and come in a variety of high-quality finishes, including brass, nickel, chrome and pewter.
To install an electric towel warmer an electrician will charge $450, including labor and the towel warmer. If you have experience with electrical projects, you can install it yourself, especially if it’s a new or remodeled bathroom where the walls are open or exposed. A moderately priced unit costs $240, so doing it yourself would save you 47%. If a new power source is needed, you could choose a plug-in unit. If there is no outlet near the new towel warmer, hire an electrician who has the license and know-how to tap into the existing power source.
