Here at the heat is on, we put the knowledge of what you need directly in your hands as the homeowner, so you needn’t ask or wait for information from your electrician. Here we give you complete expert guidance for this specific electric towel rail — including details of any additional parts required — so you can ensure a smooth and successful installation when your tradesman arrives.

heat output

• Firstly, if you haven't already done so - use our heat calculator to work out your specific requirements for your room to ensure you are looking at the right size electric radiator - in terms of the Watts / Kilowatts heat output it gives.

design & material

• The EASY E electric towel rail is a tall, narrow design featuring substantially chunky 30x40mm rectangular profile bars, offering a bold, contemporary alternative to standard ladder rails.
• Designed specifically for rooms with limited wall space, thanks to its slim, vertical shape.
• Made from low carbon mild steel.
• Additionally, we have created a thorough and detailed technical guide on electric towel rails , giving even more information and tips.

full range of sizes available

• In addition to the sizes we are displaying here on the heat is on - you can view the full range of 4 different sizes of EASY E here on the Terma website .
• We can process a special order for any size you wish to purchase if that size is not shown on our website.

control & functionality

• Uses the Terma KTX 2 heating element.
• The KTX 2 has 5 temperature settings that range from 30°C to 60°C.
• 2 hour drying function for convenient timed heating.
• Accurate internal temperature regulation for consistent heating performance.

colour & finish

• Painted in Brass (premium wet paint).
• Finished in a metallic, smooth texture.
• This is a premium wet paint which is painted using a hand finished liquid paint (as opposed to an automated powder paint - so this paint is more expensive). This creates a deeper, more metallic type finish.
• Note: If you don't have the budget for a premium wet paint - the closest colour match in a powder paint would be the Halo colour. This is slightly darker, not quite a brass, and does not feature the black over-pattern. It costs the same as standard powder colours (approx. 25% less). Please call us to request this option, as it is not currently listed on the website.
• A 150×50mm colour chip of this finish is available to purchase for preview (link to colour chip will be on the right-hand side of the page).
• Note: The KTX 2 element controller supplied with this model is gold. The gold element and brass towel rail are a very close match. The element will be a little shinier than the rail and less matt. If you want an exact colour match element - you need to buy the KTX 4 Blue or VEO element which can be produced in brass to match the rail. We list the EASY E with either of those elements here on the site - or you can contact us if you need a size we don't show.
• Additionally, we have created a thorough and detailed technical guide on paint finishes and colours giving even more information and tips.

installation & features

• Element probe is pre fitted inside the radiator - located on the right hand side (E8 connection). If you would like the heating element on the left hand side (E1 connection), please contact us to place this as a special order. Consider where your electric supply will be so the wire has the shortest distance to travel.
• The KTX 2 Square controller is supplied separately in the packaging – simple push-fit installation with adjustable viewing angle.
• Quick and easy installation – no commissioning or complex setup required.

standard option vs. masking option

• You can choose to buy this electric towel rail with or without the cable masking cover on the rear (as seen in all the images).
• The masking cover conceals the wire up to the entry point into the wall, providing a neater, tidier appearance.
• Important note: Masking requires the wall to be trowelled out; if walls or tiles are already finished, the standard (non-masking) option is recommended.

safety & compliance

• IPX5 rated – safe for use in bathrooms.
• Oil-filled for efficient, consistent heat distribution.
• Class 1 electrical appliance.
• UKCA approved.

guarantee, warranty and replacing the heating element

• 2-year manufacturer’s warranty (heating element).
• Usual lifespan of a heating element is 4 to 7 years dependent on use.
  • At end of life, you can simply replace the TS1 heating probe inside this model, as the external KTX controller is a separate unit — making replacement a cost-effective and straightforward process.
• 12-year manufacturer’s warranty (radiator).
