A heated towel rail is an affordable luxury for every bathroom. The Thermogroup Vertical Single Heated Rail in brushed brass is designed to dry your towels while making a striking design statement—ideal for bathrooms with limited wall space. The brushed brass finish coordinates seamlessly with brushed brass tapware and premium bathroom fittings. This 240V vertical rail connects directly to power without a transformer, making installation straightforward and eliminating transformer-related complications. An optional towel hook can be fitted at install for easier hanging. Note that vertical rails have less surface contact than ladder-style rails, so they're less effective at drying and warming towels. We recommend pairing with a timer to reduce running costs. One towel per bar.

Product Features:

• 240V Heated Towel Rails do not require a transformer as the rail connects directly to the 240V power. This provides an easier installation process and eliminates any potential issues that can be associated with transformers
• It is recommend to use one bar per towel to ensure enough contact between the rail and the towel for effective drying
• As with most Thermorail Heated Towel Rails, the Vertical Rails heat to around 35 degrees. When a towel is placed over the bars the towel insulates the rail and absorbs the heat, meaning that beneath the towel the temperature will rise to between 50 – 55 degrees.
• Whilst the vertical rail will assist in drying your towel, it does have less surface contact than a ladder rail and therefore will be less effective in drying and warming your towel than a ladder.
