FAQs

How does the dry electric heating technology work?

Dry electric heating technology uses internal heating elements within the bars of the towel rail to generate heat, directly warming the towel surface without the need for any liquid. This method is generally more energy-efficient and requires less maintenance.

Is this towel rail safe for bathrooms?

Yes, the towel rail is IPX4 rated, making it safe for use in Bathroom Zone 2, which includes areas around a bath or shower where water splashes are possible.

What is the warranty period?

The frame of the towel rail comes with a 5-year guarantee, and the heating element has a 2-year guarantee.

Can I plug this into a standard wall socket?

No, this towel rail must be hardwired to a 3 amp fused spur by a qualified electrician. It is not designed for plug-in use.

How much energy does it consume?

The towel rail has an 80-watt heating element. It is designed to be energy-efficient, using approximately 50% less energy than traditional liquid-filled towel warmers, especially when using the integrated timer.

What are the dimensions of the towel rail?

The towel rail measures 400mm in width and 720mm in height.

Does it come with installation hardware?

Yes, all necessary wall brackets, wall fixing screws, and wall plugs are supplied with the towel rail for fitting.

Troubleshooting

Towel rail not heating

Verify that the unit is correctly hardwired to a functional 3 amp fused spur and that the timer switch is activated. Check if the circuit breaker for the spur has tripped.

Unit feels excessively hot

Ensure towels are not densely packed and are distributed evenly. Remove any items blocking the bars. The stated temperature of 65°C is when covered with a towel; if significantly hotter, discontinue use and consult an electrician.

Power cord is too short for desired placement

The 1m power cord is fixed. Relocate the fused spur or consult a qualified electrician about extending wiring if necessary, ensuring all work complies with safety regulations.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This towel rail requires hardwiring to a 3 amp fused spur by a qualified electrician. It is supplied with all necessary wall brackets, screws, and wall plugs for installation. Ensure the chosen location is suitable for hardwiring and meets IPX4 rating requirements (Bathroom Zone 2).

Compatibility: The rail is designed to connect to a standard 3 amp fused spur. Its IPX4 rating makes it suitable for placement in Bathroom Zone 2.

Care: Clean the brushed brass finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or chemicals that could damage the surface. The stainless steel construction is rust-resistant, but regular dusting will maintain its appearance. Ensure the heating element remains unobstructed for optimal performance.
