FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of this towel rail?

The Stelrad Classic Towel Rail measures 1744mm in height and 500mm in width.

Can this towel rail be used with an electric heating system?

This model is designed for connection to a central heating system. Electric versions may be available separately.

What is the best way to clean the silver finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch or damage the finish.

How often should I bleed the towel rail?

Bleed the towel rail if you notice cold spots or if it's not heating efficiently. This is typically done when you first turn on your heating after a summer shutdown or if performance degrades.

What type of central heating system is it compatible with?

It is compatible with standard wet central heating systems. Ensure your system's operating pressure and temperature are within the product's specifications.

Does it come with wall fixings?

Installation hardware and instructions should be checked with the product packaging or manufacturer's documentation. It is recommended to use appropriate fixings for your wall type.

Troubleshooting

Towel rail is not heating up

Ensure the central heating system is on and functioning. Check if the radiator valves are fully open. Bleed the radiator to release any trapped air.

Leaking from valve connections

Gently tighten the valve connections. If the leak persists, turn off the water supply to the radiator, drain it, and re-seal the connections, or contact a qualified plumber.

Cold spots on the towel rail

This indicates air in the system. Use a radiator key to bleed the radiator at the highest point until water starts to come out, then close the valve.

Silver finish appears dull

Clean the rail with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
