Hints and Advice
In order to assist your choice of towel rail, the following check points should help to avoid the specification of an unsuitable model.
- Ensure the space you have is of adequate dimensions and that suitable services can be directed to the location.
- Check you have sufficient room to accept the projection of the towel rail without impeding access or door opening etc.
- Ensure the towel rail of your choice is suited to the circuit available. Never install an item containing Ferrous Metal (Steel) parts on an open circuit.
- Never install a towel rail without providing for suitable isolation.
- Consider the benefits of an electrical immersion heater for continued operation in the summer months. When utilised, one isolating valve should be turned off to prevent circulation through the system. Appropriate measures should also be taken to ensure the continued venting and filling of the product. On no account should the electric option be operated in tandem with the central heating.
- All Vogue UK products must be installed in accordance with BS5449, BS7593 and BS7671 or with those enforced by the appropriate regulatory bodies for the country or region in which the unit will be located to avoid invalidation of the guarantee.
