In the old days where the radiators were situated in a room depended on how big they were but this is no longer the determining criteria. Instead you can choose where you want them and then buy compact radiators that will fit best in that location. There is a designer unit being sold that doesn’t have any metal fins but which radiates the heat from a large but attractive rock instead.

There are smaller compact radiators concealed in wall mirrors which can be hung at eye level in a hallway so that it takes up none of your valuable floor space at all. Hanging a heated towel rail in the bathroom can put an elegant finishing touch on the room, supplying the luxury of a warm towel when you step out of the shower or bath and heating the room as well. Compact radiators are the perfect answer to a variety of heating challenges since the heat they will generate is very good compared to their size.

You can also get heated shelves that will warm not just a couple of towels, but practically the entire contents of your bathroom linen closet. Or choose one of the many compact radiators that are created to look like pieces of metal sculpture and are hung on the wall like expensive artwork.
