FAQs

How energy efficient is this towel rail?

This towel rail uses dry electric heating technology, which is approximately 50% more cost-effective to operate than similar-sized liquid-filled models.

What is the warranty for this product?

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

Can I leave the towel rail on all the time?

While it is designed for efficiency, it has a built-in on/off switch with a 2 or 4-hour timer for controlled operation, which is recommended for energy saving.

Is this towel rail suitable for my bathroom?

Yes, it is IPX4 rated, making it suitable for Bathroom Zone 2. It is also constructed from rust-resistant stainless steel, ideal for damp environments.

What is the maximum temperature it reaches?

When covered with towels, the rail can reach a temperature of approximately 65°C.

What is included in the box?

The towel rail is supplied with everything needed for wall fitting, including wall brackets, wall fixing screws, and wall plugs.

How do I clean the towel rail?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain the high-quality finish.

Troubleshooting

Towel rail not heating

Check that the rail is plugged into a live socket and that the fused spur is switched on. Ensure the built-in timer is set correctly. Verify the circuit breaker for the fused spur has not tripped.

Inconsistent heating

Ensure towels are not packed too densely around the rails, as this can impede airflow and heat distribution. Check for any obstructions on the heating element (if accessible without damage).

Visible rust spots

Contact customer support. While 201 stainless steel is highly resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or damage to the surface could theoretically lead to discoloration. This is unlikely under normal use.

Unit feels loose on the wall

Check that all wall fixings are tightened securely. If mounting on a less rigid surface, ensure appropriate wall anchors were used during installation.
