What's this? DIYBanter thinks hot water is a rude word or what?
Oh I see, its censored ****, very droll.

no... well you could but it would only work when the tap was open. Some
value inline with a shower perhaps - the towels would be warm when you
are done.

Your welcome.

What you are probably thinking of is situations where the towel rad is
plumbed into the hot water heating segment of a conventional central
heating system rather than the radiator segment. This has the advantage
that the rail will be kept hot even when the rads are not being used in
the summer but the HW heating is still on.

Just spent a week in a holiday cottage with exactly this system, except
that *all* hot water went through the rail. Took aeons to come out of
the kitchen tap...... (I assume the basic plumbing was contemporary with
the house, early 50s at a guess, back-boiler supplemented by an
immersion heater. The place wasn't a throwback though, it was nicely
modernised, miles from anywhere and no mobile phone signal. Wonderful).
