It is
possible to get a towel rad with this sort of output but with adding a
bit on try and compensate a bit for the insulation of the towels I'm
looking at a rad of about 1500mm x 600mm. This is for a white one,
can't find a chromed one near big enough. At this size it's probably
going to dominate the room too much, so maybe time for a rethink on
the project.

Is there space to fit a small water filled towel rail. These can be
fed off the central heating and provided with an electric element
for use when the heating is not turned on.

Alternately use solar water heating and in the summer use a little
of the hot water for the towel rail.

Note that SS bathroom rads have a much higher output than chrome
plated ones.

If your bath is steel you could hide a radiator underneath (and
possibly in contact with) the bath.
