Product Information
Full details
The Terma Crystal Electric Towel Rail in Grey is designed for homeowners seeking a stylish and functional towel warming solution for their bathroom. Its key benefit is providing warm, dry towels with a fixed, safe operating temperature, complemented by an elegant, modern design. A caveat is that it requires an external timer for scheduling, as it lacks an integrated one. This oil-filled radiator features unique diamond-shaped bars, a smooth silk-textured finish in a Sparkling Gravel (taupe-like) hue, and a simple, fixed-temperature electric element.

FAQs
What is the operating temperature of the Terma SIM element?
The Terma SIM element maintains a fixed operating temperature of 65°c.
Does the towel rail come with a timer?
No, the Terma Crystal Electric Towel Rail does not have an integrated timer. It is designed to be used with an external timer or smart control system.
Can I install this myself?
No, installation should only be performed by a qualified tradesperson due to electrical connections.
What does IP67 rating mean?
An IP67 rating indicates that the product is protected against dust ingress and can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter deep for a short period, making it safe for bathroom environments.
How do I clean the towel rail?
Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
What colour is the 'Sparkling Gravel' finish?
Sparkling Gravel is a taupe-like hue, described as a blend of brown and grey, with a smooth, silk texture.
Can the element be fitted on either side?
Yes, the flat rail design allows for flexible installation with the element positioned on either the left or right side.
Troubleshooting
Towel rail is not heating up.
Verify that the switched fused spur is on and functioning correctly. Check the connection to the power supply. Ensure the element is securely fitted if recently installed.
Uneven heating.
This is unlikely with an oil-filled radiator. If suspected, ensure the unit is installed vertically and has not been tilted significantly. Contact a qualified installer if the issue persists.
Exterior finish appears dull or damaged.
Cease using abrasive cleaning products. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. If damage is significant, contact the manufacturer for advice.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This towel rail is designed for straightforward installation by a qualified electrician. It connects directly to a switched fused spur. The element can be positioned on either the left or right side of the rail during installation. No complex commissioning is required.
Compatibility: The Terma SIM element operates at a fixed 65°c. While it has no built-in timer, it is fully compatible with any standard external timer switch or smart home control system.
Care: To maintain the Sparkling Gravel finish, clean the towel rail with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the silk texture. Ensure the unit is powered off at the fused spur before cleaning.
