It’s a smart use of towel rails with The Radiator Company 

The Radiator Company has launched its popular Lupin and Poppy Towel Rails in SMART Electric versions as standard.

These Wi-Fi connected options offer intuitive heating control via the free to download IRSAP NOW App. EcoDesign and Lot 20 compliant, the steel Lupin and Poppy towel rails are available in white, chrome and 31 special finishes.   

The Lupin and Poppy Electric Towel Rails offer a classic ladder aesthetic which are both practical and generous in design. As such, they remain a firm favourite with customers when it comes to selecting modern heating solutions for bathroom, kitchen and utility spaces. 

The Radiator Company has now launched SMART control as standard for both towel rails, meaning full control and customisation is possible with Wi-Fi connection via the IRSAP NOW App. Incredibly user friendly, both come with a quick start guide. Tutorials are also available on the app itself, which can help customers to save on energy consumption and costs. 

Both the Lupin and Poppy Towel Rails offer high-quality Italian design and manufacturing and come with a 10-year guarantee as well as a two-year element guarantee. The Class II, IP44-rated towel rails are available in White RAL 9016 as standard, 188 RAL colours and 31 special finishes as well as chrome. Finally, The Radiator Company also provides the SMART controller colour matched on white and coloured towel rail options for a seamless look.
