Troubleshooting
Towel rail not heating up
Check if the central heating system is on. Ensure radiator valves are fully open. Bleed the radiator to release any trapped air. Verify that valves were purchased and installed correctly.
Leaking from connections
Turn off water supply to the radiator. Check that all fittings and valve connections are tight. If the leak persists, professional plumbing assistance may be required.
Uneven heating
The lower part of the rail may be cooler if air is trapped. Attempt to bleed the radiator. Ensure the central heating pump is functioning correctly and water is circulating properly.
Squeaking or pinging noises
These noises can sometimes occur as the metal expands and contracts with temperature changes. This is usually normal. If noises are persistent or very loud, check for any physical obstructions or stress on the unit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation:
This heated towel rail connects to your home's central heating system, similar to a standard radiator. It requires appropriate plumbing connections. Heavy-duty fixing brackets, finished in matt black to match the rail, are included for secure wall mounting. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper connection and performance.
Compatibility:
The rail operates using hot water from your central heating system. It is compatible with most standard domestic central heating setups. Please ensure you have adequate water pressure and flow for optimal performance.
Radiator Valves:
Radiator valves (both inlet and outlet) are essential for controlling water flow and are *not* included with the towel rail. These must be purchased separately. We recommend using thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) for better temperature control.
Care:
To maintain the matt black finish, clean the towel rail with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the coating. Periodically check fixings to ensure the rail remains securely mounted.
