Troubleshooting

Towel rail is not heating up

Check that the central heating system is turned on and functioning correctly. Ensure valves on the towel rail are open. If it's an electric model, verify the power supply and that the thermostat is set correctly.

Leaking from connections

Turn off the water supply to the towel rail. Tighten the fittings at the leaking point. If the leak persists, the valve or seal may need replacement; professional plumbing assistance is recommended.

Uneven heating

Bleed the towel rail to release any trapped air. If the issue persists, balancing the system may be necessary, which typically requires professional plumbing expertise.

Chrome finish looks dull

Clean the rail with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth to restore shine. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
