350mm Wide Electric Towel Rails
Bridging the gap between ultra-compact cloakroom models and full-sized family radiators, our 350mm wide electric towel rails offer exceptional versatility. Measuring exactly 35cm across, these mid-sized standalone warmers provide a much more generous hanging area while still preserving valuable wall space in guest bathrooms, modern en-suites, or awkwardly shaped washrooms. Operating 100% independently of your central heating system, they guarantee warm, fluffy towels on demand—even in the middle of summer when your main boiler is switched off.
Specifications & Heat Output
Our electric-only towel radiators arrive fully sealed and pre-filled with a specialized thermodynamic fluid. To assist you in selecting the ideal size for your room, the table below breaks down the physical bar layout alongside the estimated BTU heat outputs across standard Delta T (ΔT) ratings.

*Prices reflect estimates depending on your chosen finish and element type. Highly polished Chrome reflects heat slightly, generally projecting less ambient room warmth than our matte and painted finishes.
Premium Finish Options
At 350mm wide, this collection is available in two premium finishes to complement your bathroom decor:
- Brilliant Chrome: A universally loved, highly polished surface designed to reflect light and seamlessly match your existing shower enclosures and taps.
- Crisp White: A timeless, high-output powder coating that keeps your space looking bright, airy, and impeccably clean.
For Matte Black or Anthracite options, our 300mm collection is the closest electric size offering dark finishes. Need more hanging capacity? The 400mm range opens up all four finishes.
Customize Your Heating Control
Tailor your 350mm towel rail to match your household's daily routine by pairing it with the ideal electrical element:
- Standard & LST Elements: Select a dependable single-heat element for basic, continuous warmth, or choose a Low Surface Temperature (LST) variant to cap the maximum exterior heat in homes with young children or vulnerable adults.
- Thermostatic Elements: Take command of your comfort. These elements allow you to manually dial the surface heat up or down, helping you save on running costs.
- WiFi Smart Elements: Experience next-generation heating. Sync the radiator with your home WiFi to create highly specific, automated drying schedules straight from your smartphone.
Essential Installation Accessories
To comply with UK building safety standards, this electrical fixture must be professionally hardwired.
- Fused Spurs: A mandatory requirement for safely connecting the heating element directly into your home's mains power.
- Wall Timers & Boosters: When operating a standard element, we strongly advise installing a wall-mounted booster. These allow you to trigger stepped heating cycles (from 1 to 5 hours), ensuring the rail automatically shuts off once your towels are fully dried.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much actual hanging space is there on a 350mm towel rail?
While the external width of the radiator measures 350mm, the vertical upright tubes occupy approximately 80mm of that footprint. This provides a spacious internal horizontal bar width of 270mm, giving you significantly more room to thread folded towels compared to our ultra-narrow models.
What size gap on my wall do I need to mount this?
The physical rail is 350mm wide. To ensure the mounting brackets sit completely flush and you retain enough comfortable clearance on either side to easily load and remove your towels, we highly recommend allowing a total flat wall space of around 450mm.
Can the heating element be installed on either side of the towel rail?
Yes, the electrical heating element is fully reversible and can be fitted to either the left or the right-hand side of the radiator to accommodate your existing wiring. However, the element must always be installed at the bottom of the unit. Fitting it at the top bypasses the built-in overheat protection systems and is strictly prohibited.
What are the IP ratings for your electric towel rails?
The IP (Ingress Protection) rating depends entirely on the type of element you select. A standard on/off heating element boasts a high IPX6 rating. Our advanced thermostatic and WiFi elements carry an IPX4 rating. Both options are completely safe and compliant for bathroom zones when installed by a qualified professional.
How can I hang large bath sheets on a 350mm rail?
The generous 270mm internal gap handles most standard towels with a simple fold. If you are regularly drying oversized, heavy bath sheets, you can further maximize your drying space by adding our Towel Rail Pegs. Available in Black, Chrome, and White to match your radiator, these clever pegs fit neatly between the horizontal bars, allowing you to hook bulky robes or thick towels straight off the front of the unit.
