As we continue to look for luxury products to turn our baths into spas, we also are demanding that those same products deliver function. Zehnder towel radiators, electric, self-contained units that create a new heating zone in the home, do just that - offer energy efficient function plus high style design. These radiators operate on standard 110-volt power, come with a wireless seven-day programmable controller, and install easily. Homeowners can program the radiator to turn on before waking up in the morning, thus waking to a warm bathroom and a warm towel. And after showering the towels are dried, eliminating damp towels and musty odors in the bathroom. As radiators, these units can save energy by heating the bath without having to heat the entire home or zone. They offer the perfect solution to this dilemma--a cool sleeping area with a warm bathroom and fluffy, warm towels. To save energy at other times, the radiators can be programmed to turn off automatically.Zehnder towel radiators are made of steel with electrostatically applied powder coat paints or triple chrome plating. They are offered in 300, 450 or 600-watt designs, depending on size, and are able to heat up to a 120 square foot area. The units are easy to install with the four mounting brackets and hardware included. They all come equipped with a 24-inch cord and plug into any 110/120V receptacle (GFCI recommended in bathrooms). The radiator can also be direct wired and a hard wire kit is offered at no extra chargeNew for 2007, is the Villeroy & Boch by Zehnder line from Switzerland. These products are at the pinnacle of fashion and function in the luxury bathroom accessories category. Zehnder is the pre-eminent brand of radiators in Europe, while Villeroy & Boch, based in Germany, produces some of the finest china and bathroom fixtures in the world.
