FAQs

What is included with the towel rail?

The Milano Bow Heated Towel Rail includes the rail itself, wall fixings, wall plugs, and a blanking and bleed plug. Radiator valves are typically sold separately.

Can this towel rail be used with an electric heating element?

This model is designed for central heating systems. If you require electric-only heating, you would need to purchase a compatible electric heating element separately and ensure it is installed by a qualified electrician.

What is the heat output of this towel rail?

The heat output is 2687 BTUs (788 Watts), providing ample warmth for drying towels.

How often should I bleed the towel rail?

It is recommended to bleed the towel rail when you first install it and periodically thereafter, especially if you notice it is not heating evenly or at all. Listening for gurgling sounds also indicates trapped air.

What are the dimensions of the towel rail?

The dimensions are 1000mm (height) x 500mm (width) x 122mm (depth).

What is the warranty period?

The Milano Bow Heated Towel Rail comes with a 10-year guarantee from the manufacturer.

Can I install this myself?

Installation involves connecting to a central heating system and requires plumbing expertise. It is strongly recommended that installation be carried out by a qualified plumber to ensure safety and proper function.

Troubleshooting

Towel rail is not heating up

Ensure your central heating system is on and functioning correctly. Check if the radiator valves are open. Bleed the towel rail using the bleed plug to release any trapped air, as this can impede heat circulation.

Leaking from connections

Check that all connections are securely tightened. If the leak persists, turn off the water supply to the rail and contact a qualified plumber for inspection and repair.

Uneven heating

Air trapped in the system is the most common cause. Follow the bleeding procedure outlined in the care section. If the issue continues, consult a professional plumber.

Finish is scratched or damaged

Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials. For minor scratches, touch-up paint might be available from the manufacturer, but significant damage may require professional refinishing or replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber. The package includes all necessary wall fixings, wall plugs, and blanking and bleed plugs. Ensure the rail is securely mounted to the wall using the provided hardware. It connects to your home's central heating system; proper valving (not included) is required for isolation and control.

Compatibility: This heated towel rail is designed to be connected to a standard central heating system. It is tested and certified to BS EN 442 standards, ensuring compatibility with most domestic heating setups. It is not designed for electric-only operation unless specified by a separate electric element (sold separately).

Care: To maintain the matt black finish, clean the towel rail with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the powder coating. Periodically check and tighten fittings if necessary, and use the bleed plug to release any trapped air from the system.
