Full details

This 600mm wall-mounted unit provides efficient, low-voltage heating to ensure your towels are consistently warm, though its 23W output is designed specifically for warming rather than acting as a primary room heater.

FAQs
Does this towel bar replace a radiator?
No, this is a low-wattage towel warming bar designed to heat towels, not to heat the bathroom itself.
Can I leave the towel bar on all the time?
Yes, it is designed for low-energy continuous use, but you may choose to switch it off when not needed to save power.
Is the unit hardwired or does it have a plug?
The unit is typically hardwired into a fused spur. Consult your installation manual or a professional electrician for proper connection.
What does the IPX5 rating mean?
It means the unit is protected against water jets from any direction, making it safe for use in bathroom zones.
How long is the warranty?
The Lux Heat Dry Electric Towel Bar comes with a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects.
Troubleshooting
Towel bar does not feel warm to the touch
Check that the electrical connection is secure and the unit is switched on. Allow 15-20 minutes for the element to reach its operating temperature.
Unit surface appears tarnished or stained
Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the silver finish.
Mounting feels loose on the wall
Check the wall anchors and screws. Ensure the mounting brackets are tightened securely to the wall surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Lux Heat Dry Electric Towel Bar is designed for a straightforward wall-mounted installation. Ensure you have the necessary wall clearance before mounting to allow for proper heat dissipation. Since the unit is IPX5 rated, it is suitable for zone-appropriate bathroom placement, but installation should always be performed in accordance with local electrical building regulations. Care is simple: wipe the silver surface periodically with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust or water spots. Avoid using abrasive chemicals or scouring pads, as these can damage the protective finish of the bar.
