FAQs

What is the IP64 rating?

The IP64 rating indicates that the heating element has a high level of protection against dust ingress and is protected against water splashes from any direction, making it safe for use in most bathroom areas.

Do I need to hire an electrician for installation?

While basic mounting can be done by a DIYer, connecting the heating element to the electrical supply, especially if hardwiring, should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.

What are the dimensions of the towel rail?

The Milano Arno Electric Heated Towel Rail measures 1738mm in height, 450mm in width, and 54mm in depth.

What is the warranty period?

The heated towel rail itself comes with a 10-year guarantee, and the heating element has a 2-year guarantee.

Can I use a timer with this towel rail?

If you opt for the thermostatic heating element (sold separately), it often includes a timer function and multiple temperature settings.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean the chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth and then dry it with a clean, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch or damage the surface.

What is included in the package?

The package typically includes the heated towel rail, wall fixings, and a cable cover. The heating element may be included or sold separately depending on the specific product variant.

Troubleshooting

Towel rail is not heating

Ensure the power supply is on and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Check that the heating element is correctly installed and screwed in securely. If using a thermostatic element, verify the settings and timer function.

Visible water marks or streaks on the chrome

Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly with a clean, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

Heating element is not working after installation

Confirm the heating element is compatible with the rail and correctly seated. If the issue persists, the element may be faulty and require replacement under warranty.

Loose mounting on the wall

Check and tighten the wall fixings. If the wall material is soft, consider using appropriate wall anchors for a secure installation.
