Solutions to Keep Your Bathroom Warm This Winter W ith winter well and truly here, it may become increasingly apparent that your bathroom isn’t quite capable of handling the cold mornings. Big or small, a cold bathroom makes those frosty days make life that little bit harder. Here are some ways you can ensure cold mornings are easier to manage, whether you’re making some minor home improvements or planning a whole new bathroom.

Heat underfoot - Nothing jolts you awake like the touch of a freezing tile first thing in the morning. Underfloor heating mats warm up quickly underneath the floor to keep your feet toasty and warm up the entire room easily. For little more than the cost of a coffee a week, underfloor heating systems are a cost and energy-efficient way to keep toasty during your bathroom routine.

Heated towels - The novelty of a heated towel rail soon wears off as you begin to wonder what life was like before one. We’re not kidding; heated towel rails keep your towels toasty, but are also great for keeping dampness out of bathroom towels and shower mats. Cocooning yourself in a warm towel is achievable regardless of space, with single rails for smaller bathrooms and a range of wall-mounted multi-rail options for larger spaces with Mizu’s range that’s shaped for every bathroom. Stylish Milli Pure vertical heated towel rails are also a great approach with their vertical design, providing an easily retrofittable way of injecting heat into the colder mornings. Heat from above - Stepping out of a hot shower and into a cold room takes the buzz away from a delightfully refreshing shower, so consider increasing the room’s ambient temperature with a sleek and discrete overhead solution. The most efficient way to achieve the best in lighting, ventilation and heat at once is a 3-in-1 bathroom light, heat and fan unit. They’re really easy to retrofit into existing bathrooms and can sleekly fit into your bathroom’s colour scheme with both black and white options available.
