Installation Manual
Warnings & Precautions
Please read these instructions thoroughly before commencing installation.
Please check that all ancillary components are present and that the product
has not suffered any damage during transit.
Installation should be carried out by a qualified professional or other fully
competent person and in accordance with the relevant British and European
standards (BS7593:1992, EN12828:2003, EN12831:2003, and EN14336:2004), and all
applicable Building Regulations.
This towel rail has been pre-filled and adjusted for electrical standalone
use. No filling is required. Do not remove any of the seals as this might
cause leakages and void the warranty.
When drilling or fixing into walls, floors, or ceilings it is essential you
check for pipes and wires before commencing. Please ensure that you wear all
necessary personal protective equipment.

2 – 2 | Wall Mounting
-
Check that the wall is strong enough to hold the weight of the pre-filled towel rail. On plasterboard walls, we strongly recommend fixing the timbers. The Wall Plugs (a) supplied are only suitable for solid walls and you will need alternative fixings for other wall types.
-
Mark your preferred bracket positions on the wall and drill holes for the Wall Plugs (a) or whichever alternative fixings you intend to use.
-
Screw the Wall Supports (b) to the wall using the Washers (c) and Wall Screws (d) provided, or alternative fixings if required. The Mini Screws (f) must be facing downward.
-
Screw the Bracket Stems (e) into the threads on the back of the towel rail.
-
Align the Bracket Stems (e) with the Wall Supports (b) and push the towel rail back into position.
-
Hold the towel rail back against the wall and tighten the Mini Screws (f) with the Hexagon Key (g) provided.
2 – 3 | Connecting the Towel Rail
Wiring the heating element to the mains is a job for a qualified electrician.
Please consult the element manual for full instructions and safety warnings.
Please note: the heating element must always be located at the bottom of the
rail. DO NOT fit the element at the top.

atmospheric phenomena, incorrect use of the unit, the purchaser’s faulty
electrical installations, transporting the unit, or problems caused by the
unit being handled by persons not authorized by Ecostrad. An invoice may be
required to confirm that installation work has been carried out by a qualified

The icon with the crossed-out waste bin on electrical or electronic equipment stipulates that this equipment must not be disposed of with household waste at the end of its life. You will find collection points for free return of waste electrical and electronic equipment in your vicinity. The addresses can be obtained from your local authority.
The separate collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment enables the re-use, recycling, and other forms of recovery of waste equipment, and prevents any negative effects for the environment or human health caused by the disposal of hazardous substances potentially contained in the equipment.
