  • Handy Ways to use Towel Warmers:

    admin 2:14 pm on November 16, 2009 | 0 Permalink | Reply

    What other applications are there for towel warmers?

    Besides keeping towels dry, towel warmers have many functions and can be used in rooms outside the bathroom alone. For example, in colder weather, towel warmers can be used for damp coats and clothing. Not only do they dry and keep the clothing free of mildew, they also make them warm for the next time you put them on to go out.

    According to Greenliving.com, most towel warmers are designed to run all the time. While it may seem inefficient, the operating power usually uses less than a light bulb and is definitely less energy-wasting than running the dryer. There are many handy ways to use towel warmers.

    Every day, we find people using Amba Products in new and creative ways. Some recent examples are:

    • Drying Bathing Suits
    • Commercial use in hotel bathrooms
    • To hang Pressed Pants on
    • Bathrobes
    • In boat, cabins and yachts
    • To dry delicate garments -installed in the Laundry room.
    • To keep kitchen cloths and oven mitts dry- installed in the kitchen
    • For wet jackets, ski boots, socks etc…- installed in Mudrooms

  • What size towel warmer is right?

    admin 6:53 am on November 12, 2009 | 0 Permalink | Reply

    This is often a topic of debate for which there is no one answer. Ultimately it is a matter of personal preference and style.

    Obviously the size of your bathroom, aesthetic balance and practical needs all play a part in the decision.

    No one size fits all. That is why at Amba Towel Warmers there is a large range of Collections and Models to select from.

    We would love to hear from you about how you selected your (or your clients) size towel warmer. Include a photograph so that we can fully appreciate your design approach.

    Or was size a none issue for you?

  • Are towels as warm as when they come out of a dryer?

    admin 11:36 am on November 3, 2009 | 0 Permalink | Reply

    Will towels feel as warm as they do when they come out of a dryer?

    The primary benefit of a towel warmer is to keep towels warm and dry and consequently reduce the need for excessive laundering of towels. Towels will not be as hot as they are when they first come out of a dryer. To maintain that type of heat the towel warmers would need to be as hot as an iron. This would end up scorching the towels as well as being a safety hazard not to mention a major waste of power, and who could afford that in these tough times?

    However, the units have a built in thermostat & internal thermal cutout, the unit will cycle itself to an average temperature of 154 to 158˚ degrees Fahrenheit. It switches itself on and off just like a hot water tank, leaving towels warm and dry (safely).

    Not only do Italian-designed Amba Towel Warmers offer cutting-edge functionality, they are aesthetically pleasing, energy efficient and affordable. They are a great way to dry towels and keep bathrooms warm and mildew free. Amba towel warmers help prevent mold and mildew which can be a health hazard.

    According to healthandenergy.com, mildew is mold that grows on fabric. Mold is not just something that can ruin clothing or towels; it is a health hazard that can seriously contaminate the air you breathe. Mold “spores” can be spread very easily through air and water, even when towels are just the slightest bit moist.

    Amba Products mission is to deliver high quality affordable products. Our products are all made of solid 304 Stainless Steel, and are less likely to rust or flake like those products which are chrome plated. Amba offers a wide range of styles, sizes and finishes all at affordable prices.

  • Liquid inside the rails of the Jeeves Collection?

    admin 9:37 am on October 14, 2009 | 0 Permalink | Reply

    We are sometimes asked what the the liquid inside the Jeeves Collection of towel warmers is.

    The liquid is a mixture of water with a small percentage of Glycol.  It is an oily substance that diffuses the heat from the heating element and stops the liquid from freezing.

    If you have any questions we can answer regarding Jeeves or any of our Towel Warmer Collects we would love to hear form you.

  • Hydronic & Electric units - what is the difference?

    admin 9:24 am on October 6, 2009 | 0 Permalink | Reply

    Hydronics is the name for the use of water as the heat-transfer medium in heating and cooling systems.

    The hydronic unit is heated by hot water which is used for heating the whole house via a radiator system. The hydronic unit is controlled by a valve that lets the hot water flow through the towel warmer heating it and consequently the towels. The down side of the hydronic system is that in summer when the radiator heating system is not in use the towel warmers cannot be used.

    Electric towel warmers are heated by an electrical element inside the towel rail. Electric units are simpler to install, can be installed anywhere and can be used all year round.

    Amba offers two different electric systems. The Jeeves range which is heated by an element immersed in a glycol/water mixture. All other Amba towel warmers are heated by a “dry” element i.e. there is not liquid inside the rails.
