Troubleshooting

Towel rail not heating with central heating

Check that your central heating system is fully operational. Ensure the radiator valves are fully open and that there are no airlocks in the system.

Towel rail not heating with electric element

Verify that the heating element is securely screwed in. Check the fuse or circuit breaker supplying power to the element. Ensure the isolation switch (if installed) is on.

Leaking from valve connections

Ensure valves are tightened correctly. If leaking persists, isolation may be required, and the valve seating may need to be checked or replaced by a professional.

Element makes noise

Some gurgling or expansion noises are normal as the element heats up. If the noise is excessive or persistent, check for airlocks in the system.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This dual-fuel towel rail requires both plumbing connections for your central heating system and an electrical connection for the heating element. It is recommended that installation is carried out by a qualified plumber and electrician. The rail comes with chrome radiator valves and a dual-fuel T-piece.

Compatibility: It is designed to work with standard central heating systems. The electric element is 400W. Ensure your bathroom's electrical circuit can support this additional load.

Care: To maintain the chrome finish, wipe the towel rail regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, use a mild detergent diluted in water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
