A dry electric element draws just 104 watts and the rail is IP55 rated. Warmth is felt within 5 to 10 minutes of switching on, and the rail reaches its optimum operating temperature in around 30 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMultiflex wiring is the standout practical feature. The 1.8m lead can connect at any of the four mounting positions, left or right and top or bottom, and the same rail can be installed with concealed hardwiring or exposed plug-in wiring. Every part needed for either method is supplied with the rail, so the wiring choice can be made on installation day without buying anything extra.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThermogroup is an Australian company, and the BS48MB is backed by its seven year replacement warranty for coloured Thermorail towel rails.

Because the connection point can sit on the left or right and at the top or the bottom, the rail can be flipped so the lead emerges exactly where the power supply is. The decision between concealed hardwiring and exposed plug-in wiring is made at installation, using the leg kit, brackets and screws supplied for both methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDay to day, the rail is simple to run. Thermogroup notes that Thermorails are safe to leave running continuously, although many households prefer to connect the rail to a standard switch or a Thermorail timer so it warms only when needed. A timer can control more than one rail, provided the combined load stays within the timer rating, and every rail on that timer will switch on and off together. Thermogroup suggests that an electric rail of this type can cost as little as a dollar a week to run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing a black rail is as much about coordination as warmth. Thermogroup's Thermomatch colour tool lists the Matte Black Thermorail finish as an excellent match with Meir, Nero and Faucet Strommen black tapware, which makes it easier to bring the rail, tapware and accessories together in one consistent scheme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Products \/ Accessories:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Product:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 × Thermogroup BS48MB Thermorail Matte Black straight square ladder heated towel rail with 1.8m connection lead.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLeg Kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 × non-wired legs, 1 × exposed wired leg, 2 × concealed wired legs and 1 × white concealed wiring sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 × mounting brackets, 1 × exposed wiring mounting bracket and screw, 4 × wall plugs, 4 × countersunk screws, 2 × machine screws, 4 × small machine screws and 4 × grub screws.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 × Allen key.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDocumentation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Installation guide with complete concealed and exposed wiring instructions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThermorail heated towel rails are backed by a 10-year replacement warranty on polished stainless steel rails, a seven-year warranty on coloured and plated rails, and a five-year warranty on custom-plated rails.
