FAQs
What is a PTC Element?
PTC stands for Positive Temperature Coefficient. This type of heating element is self-regulating, meaning it automatically adjusts its power consumption to maintain a set temperature, which can lead to energy savings compared to traditional elements.
Can I install this myself?
While the rail comes with all necessary fixings for wall mounting, the electrical connection should ideally be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance.
What is the guarantee period for this towel rail?
The rail itself comes with a 5-year guarantee, and the electric element has a 2-year guarantee.
How much space do the adjustable brackets provide from the wall?
The adjustable wall brackets allow for a distance of 75mm to 90mm from the wall to the front of the rail.
Can the heating element be fitted on either side?
Yes, the 250W PTC Element is designed to be fitted on either the left or right side of the towel rail.
Is the towel rail pre-filled with fluid?
Yes, all Manissa electric towel rails are supplied pre-filled and ready for installation.
What certifications does this towel rail have?
This towel rail is CE and EN442 certified.
