950mm Wide Electric Towel Radiator

At 950mm wide, these electric towel rails are statement pieces for bathrooms where function meets design. Wide enough to hold five or six towels comfortably, they run independently of central heating all year round—perfect for master bathrooms, wet rooms, and luxury renovations where the rail itself becomes a design feature, not an afterthought.
Why 950mm suits luxury master bathrooms and wet rooms
- Towel capacity: Five to six full-size towels, plus bath sheets. Ideal for households with multiple bathrooms or guest suites where the rail needs to handle peak demand.
- Feature wall impact: At 950mm, the rail spans nearly the full width of a standard bathroom wall (1150mm minimum clearance recommended). The scale transforms it from utility into design focal point—especially in high-end renovations or spa-style wet rooms.
- Independent heating: Runs on its own 13A circuit, no reliance on the boiler. Perfect for summer, extended holidays, or homes with combi boilers where you want heat without firing central heating.
- Projection efficiency: Standard 90–110mm projection keeps the room open while providing full towel width. No cramped corners or wasted wall space.
Pipe centres and wall space
For 950mm wide rails, pipe centres sit at 900mm—a straightforward calculation (width minus 50mm standard offset). You'll need a minimum wall clearance of 1150mm to mount comfortably; this accounts for typical bathroom layouts and ensures no obstruction from door frames, shelving, or fixtures. Wall projection is 90–110mm, giving you enough clearance for easy towel access without the rail protruding awkwardly into the room.
Wattage and running costs
950mm rails in our electric range draw 500–800W depending on finish and element configuration. Running costs are modest: on a typical 2-hour daily timer at today's rate of 24.67p per kWh, expect £7–£12 per month. All models are IP44-rated (splash-proof), suitable for bathrooms with condensation and steam. Installation requires a Part P certified electrician to wire the 13A fused spur—no plumbing required, no pipework modifications.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I fit a 950mm rail in a standard UK bathroom? Yes, if your wall is at least 1150mm clear. Most family bathrooms will accommodate this width. Measure your wall space first—account for door frames, toilet cisterns, and vanity units. If wall space is tight, consider our 800mm or 900mm models instead.
- Will a 950mm electric rail add much to my energy bills? Not significantly. At 600W average and 2 hours daily use, you're looking at roughly £8–10 per month—less than a kettle run twice daily. Many customers offset this by running the central heating less in summer or using the rail as primary heat during transition seasons.
All our 950mm electric towel rails carry a 5-year warranty on the rail and fittings. Free delivery on orders over £200. Order today with confidence.
