Features

Adjust the Temperature of your Heated Towel Rail

Whether you like the temperature of your heated towel rail hot, medium or cool, we've got you covered. With the built-in Personal Temperature Selection (PTSelect ) Switch, you can personalise your heated towel rail by adjusting the temperature to what suits you the best. You can also switch on and off as needed and reduce running costs by up to 60% when doing so.

DET - Dry Element Technology

DET is the advanced heating technology that we use in our heated towel rails and it boast benefits of RAPID HEATING, where the heated towel rail heats up to working temperature within 10 -15 mins, as well as DIRECT INTELLIGENT HEATING, where it allows an increase in temperature in the horizontal bars under the damp towel. It also allows for DUAL ENTRY electrical connections with both LEFT and RIGHT hand wiring.

Rapid Heating

RAPID HEATING is a major advantage of DET, where our heated towel rails reach optimum working temperature within 10 -15 minutes of being switched on. This means they are economically efficient to switch on and off as and when needed.

DUAL Entry Electrical Connection

When installing a Bathroom Butler heated towel rail, do you choose a left or right electrical point? Well, it doesn't matter actually! Our heated towel rails have dual entry electrical connection suitable for both left-hand or right-hand wiring, providing a solution for every bathroom design. And because there is no fluid within our rails, you can also install them upside down if it better suits your electric point.

The Perfect Material Choice

GRADE 304 Stainless Steel is the finest material choice for our heated towel rails because its natural corrosion resistance properties prevent rusting, staining, peeling, flaking or chipping. Grade 304 Stainless Steel is also a hygienic material – it is non porous, and it does not collect bacteria or algae.

Additional Info

Cleaning and Care: To keep the product in pristine condition, simply wipe it down with a warm damp cloth and then buff dry with a microfiber cloth. You could also on occasion, use a Chlorine-free stainless steel cleaner to maintain the gorgeous shine. If you use a stainless steel polish, make sure it is abrasive free. When cleaning wall surfaces around your heated towel rail make sure not to use any household detergents that contain Chlorine-based chemicals such as bleach, this will cause permanent damage to the surface of the stainless steel.

Material: Grade 304 Stainless Steel

Stainless Steel has a natural resistance to corrosion and therefore does not require a protective coating which makes this product ideal for the bathroom environment. The shiny polished Stainless Steel finish is often confused with a Chrome finish, however the two could not be more different. While stainless steel will not peel or flake, chrome products on the other hand are susceptible to chipping and pitting due to the nature of a coated surface.

About the
Seller

Globally Bathroom Butler is a pioneer in engineering and manufacturing premium bathroom accessories and heated towel rails for residential and commercial projects. Established 40 years ago, this second generation family business has learned what the needs are of most bathrooms, which has led to all their products being carefully considered, tested, and designed with a purpose. At bathroom Butler, they believe that beauty lies in every detail.

Driven by innovation and engineering excellence.

Bathroom Butler started as a small family business in South Africa, back then it wasn’t called Bathroom Butler, Keith Maclaren-Taylor started the manufacturing business in the 70s out of his garage, where he first started making gym equipment and where the row master was invented.

Andrew, Angela and Craig all grew up watching their father Keith hard at work and during school holidays they would get involved and help him, learning the ropes of the business from a young age and building a business from the ground up. Keith instilled the importance of work ethic in his children early on and that it pays off.

After completing their various studies, all the children began work for the family business, starting from the bottom and then becoming leaders of their own. In 2005 they started and launched Bathroom Butler to the market. Today Bathroom Butler is known as one of the leading manufacturers of bathroom accessories and heated towels racks.

Driven by innovation and engineering excellence, the focus is on design and quality. One of Bathroom Butler’s innovations is the patented RIGID Loc Mounting System for bathroom accessories, that was designed with the consumer in mind to eliminate the problem of bathroom accessories constantly coming loose. Bathroom Butler has also pioneered advanced DET Technology for their heated towel racks and were among the first brands to start using GRADE 304 Stainless Steel for their products instead of Chrome.
