FAQs
What is anthracite grey?
Anthracite is a type of coal which has a very notable dark grey appearance. As a colour choice, anthracite grey is becoming ever more popular, particularly as it can provide a softer contrast when paired with other colours or material choices like chrome. More traditional choices like black and white provide much starker contrasts. When it comes to radiators, anthracite works well to give a bathroom a really modern look.
Should I choose a radiator or heated towel radiator?
Even if you've decided that anthracite grey is the perfect colour choice for your space, you'll still need to weigh up the pros and cons of a traditional grey radiator against a heated anthracite towel rail. A traditional radiator will produce more heat output than a heated towel rail. What this generally means is that you'll probably want to go for a radiator if you've a larger bathroom, but a towel rail can be perfectly suitable for a smaller space.
Should I go vertical or horizontal?
Whether you opt for a vertical or horizontal anthracite radiator ultimately comes down to the size of your room and the kind of design aesthetic you're trying to achieve. Horizontal radiators are a little more efficient and provide higher heat output than their vertical counterparts, although the heat you need is dependent on the size of your room. Vertical radiators, on the other hand, offer a bold design choice, particularly when they come in a striking, modern colour like anthracite grey.
