Metra is made from grade 304 stainless steel, so it resists corrosion and keeps its good looks for years. A mirror-bright chrome finish gives a clean, fresh look that is simple to keep sparkling with a soft cloth.

4 sizes are available, with heat outputs from 949 to 1,611 BTU/hr at ΔT60. It is pressure tested to 7.8 bar and supplied with everything needed to fix it to the wall. It runs on your central heating; valves are sold separately.

Help choosing

A towel rail should keep the bathroom warm, not just dry towels. Check it's powerful enough for the room.

How much heat does your room need?

Enter your room size to see the heat output you need.

  1. Match the output to the room. Use the BTU figure from the calculator. In a bathroom, a towel rail alone often heats a small room; bigger rooms may need a radiator too.
  2. Check your connections. Measure the gap between your pipes and choose valves to suit: angled, straight or corner (see the valve helper on our valve pages).
  3. Heat pump? At the lower water temperatures heat pumps run at, expect roughly half the listed output.
  4. Summer use. Central heating rails only warm up when the heating is on. A dual fuel kit adds an electric element where the rail supports it.

Still not sure? Send us your measurements and we'll check for you.

Questions people ask

What does BTU mean?
BTU (British Thermal Units) is the heat output. The higher the figure, the more heat it gives. Use the calculator under Help choosing to see what your room needs. Outputs are quoted at ΔT50.
Which valves do I need?
Match the valve to how your pipe meets the rail: pipe and inlet in a straight line needs a straight valve, a pipe coming up from the floor into a side inlet needs an angled valve, and a pipe from the wall into a side inlet needs a corner valve. Valves aren't included unless stated.
Can I use it in summer?
A central-heating-only rail warms up only when your heating is on. A dual fuel rail with an electric element can run on its own. Check the heating type in the Specification tab, as not every rail can be converted.
What size rail do I need?
Check the heat output in the Specification tab. As a towel warmer any size works; if the rail is the room's only heat source, make sure the output covers the room, or message us and we'll help.
Will it match my brushed brass taps?
Brushed gold and brushed brass are the same warm satin family and coordinate well. See Complete the look for pieces in the same finish.
