FAQs

Does this rail come with valves?

No, the rail includes the fixing kit and air vents, but valves are typically sold separately to allow you to choose a style that matches your existing pipework.

What is the maximum working pressure?

The maximum working pressure for this rail is 7 Bar.

Can I install this in a room other than the bathroom?

While designed for bathrooms, it can be used in other rooms as a radiator, provided the heating system capacity is sufficient.

How do I maintain the silver finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth for regular dusting and cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or scouring pads to prevent scratching the surface.

Is the installation hardware included?

Yes, every unit comes with a full fixing kit including plugs and vents.

Are there other sizes available in this range?

Yes, K-Rad offers various sizes and configurations, such as the CTR608C or CTR410C, to suit different bathroom dimensions.

Troubleshooting

Towel rail is not heating up

Check if the valves are fully open and ensure there is no air trapped in the system by using the air vent key to bleed the rail.

Cold spots at the top of the rail

This is typically caused by trapped air; bleed the radiator from the top air vent until water flows steadily.

Leaking at connection points

Verify that all plumbing connections are tightened correctly and check if the PTFE tape needs re-application on the valve threads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior heat output design
  • High-quality polished silver finish
  • Meets strict BS EN ISO9001 standards
  • Tested for durability at 10 Bar pressure
  • Includes all necessary installation hardware

Cons

  • Professional installation recommended for plumbing connections
  • Requires specific wall space for vertical mounting
  • Does not include valves (sold separately in most standard configurations)

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For installation, ensure the mounting surface is capable of supporting the weight of the rail when filled with water. The unit includes a full fixing kit, but it is recommended to consult a professional plumber to ensure your central heating system's pressure remains within the 7 Bar maximum working limit. Periodically bleed the rail using the provided air vents to prevent airlocks and maintain peak heating efficiency. To clean the polished silver finish, wipe down with a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive chemicals that might strip the finish or cause corrosion.
