Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation:

This dual-fuel towel rail requires installation that connects to both your central heating system and an electrical supply for the heating element. Heavy-duty fixing brackets are included and are designed to bolt directly to the wall. It is recommended that installation is carried out by a qualified professional to ensure safety and proper function, especially for the plumbing connections. The electric heating element should be installed by a qualified electrician.

Compatibility:

The radiator is designed to be plumbed into a standard central heating system. The included electric heating element is manual temperature control. Ensure your wall can support the weight of the radiator when filled with water.

Care:

To maintain the anthracite finish, clean the radiator periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the surface. Ensure the radiator is cool before cleaning. Regularly check the wall fixings to ensure they remain secure.
