Aston - Stainless Steel Electric Towel Rail H1600mm x W400mm Straight 300w Thermostatic

Warm towels without relying on central heating

This Stainless Steel electric ladder towel rail combines a straight ladder design with a 300W electric element, letting you warm the rail independently of a wet central-heating system. Its vertical layout and polished finish provide practical towel space while giving the bathroom a considered heating feature.

Why choose this towel rail?

• Warm towels without running the whole central-heating system: Electric operation lets you use the rail independently when you only want heat here.
• Choose the control level that suits your routine: The built-in programmable thermostat adds temperature and timing control, with modes including standby w/antifreeze, heating, boost/program, error.
• Choose with realistic warm-up expectations: Electric towel rails heat differently from rails continuously supplied with hot water from a boiler, so they are not automatically faster or slower.
• No radiator valves to buy: This model operates electrically rather than connecting to a wet central-heating circuit, so radiator valves are not required.
• Avoid surprises with the electrical installation: This is not a standard plug-in towel rail. It is designed for the specified 220v-240v fused spur, 5 amp fuse* supply, so electrical installation should follow that requirement.
• No oil filling required before use: The towel rail is not supplied pre-filled with oil. It comes with the listed electric element/conversion kit and installation components, so you are not expected to source or add heating oil yourself.
• Avoid unexpected extra purchases: The supplied-items data lists Electric Element Kit, Wall Brackets, Masonry Fixings, Bleed Valve & Blanking Plug, helping you see which core components are included rather than assuming everything must be bought separately.
• Choose with confidence for bathroom use: This model carries an IPX4 rating, providing a product-specific indication of protection against moisture/water ingress. Bathroom electrical installation and positioning should still follow the applicable electrical requirements and be completed appropriately.
• Choose the towel clearance that suits your space: The straight ladder layout keeps the bars in a flatter, neater profile, making it a good choice when you want a more streamlined look and less visual depth from the wall.
• Dedicated space for positioning towels: The 24-tube ladder construction provides clearly defined horizontal rails, making it easy to see where towels can be placed while leaving some rail surface exposed for heat to circulate.
• Make the finish part of the bathroom: The polished Stainless Steel finish gives the rail a considered finish that contributes to the room as well as serving a practical purpose.
• Reduce the risk of defects reaching your home: The 9-step quality assessment process checks the product through a structured series of quality controls before it is dispatched, giving added reassurance around consistent quality and durability.
• Choose a finish tested for long-term durability: 200 hours of salt spray testing assesses resistance to corrosion and rust, helping provide reassurance against flaking, peeling and deterioration of the finish over time.
• Long-term reassurance: The 25 years (towel rail), 2 years (element) guarantee arrangement gives separate reassurance for the towel rail and its electric element.
