Talus
Dual Fuel Towel Rail Kit
(600w Touch Thermostatic)
|
Product Code: 50099
Use your towel rail independently with programmable heat control
This Talus dual-fuel conversion kit adds a 600W thermostatic electric element to a compatible central-heating towel rail, giving you independent electric heat with more control than a basic on/off element. Touch controls, adjustable temperature settings and timed boost/program functions make it easier to tailor electric operation when the main heating system is off.
Why choose this dual fuel kit?
- Choose the heat level that suits the moment: The built-in thermostat lets you select the element temperature across the supported 45°C - 65°C; 7°C Antifreeze Protection, with LED indication for quick at-a-glance checking.
- Use timed heat without leaving the element running: Boost and repeating program modes provide scheduled electric operation for towel warming without relying on the central-heating timetable.
- Keep the central-heating connection in place: The supplied T-pieces and angled valves allow the same towel rail to remain connected to the wet system while accommodating the electric element for dual-fuel use.
- Coordinate the visible fittings: The polished chrome fittings give the visible parts of the installation a bright, reflective finish that coordinates easily with chrome bathroom hardware.
How the dual fuel connection works
The element and central-heating valve need separate access to the towel rail. One supplied T-piece creates the additional connection for the electric element, while the second can be used on the opposite side when a symmetrical valve arrangement is preferred. The electrical element must be installed by a registered competent electrician.

Watts & BTUs (British Thermal Units) Explained
What is a Watt?
Watts are our main unit of energy/power in the UK, commonly associated with lightbulbs and Home Energy performance certificates (EPCs).
What is a BTU?
BTUs are the unit of measurement used to portray a radiators heat output and a rooms heating requirement. 1 Watt is equal to 3.41 BTUs.
Why are they important?
We buy radiators to heat our homes, right? So, we need a way of knowing if a radiator is powerful enough to heat the room that we are shopping for - Watts and BTUs provide us with a value that makes its easier to compare radiators and ultimately choose the right one for our heating requirement.
Need help figuring out how much heat your room needs?
Our fast and easy-to-use BTU calculator can help you:
- Work out a heating requirement value (in BTUs & Watts) for your room
- Show you in-stock radiator recommendations that can fulfil this heat requirement
Delta (Δ) Ratings Explained
What is a Delta (Δ) Rating?
When discussing heat outputs, the Delta rating is the difference between the temperature of the water inside the heating system and the desired temperature of the room.
What does the value represent?
In simple terms, this value is about heat loss. Heating a room only works, if the radiator output exceeds the heat loss of the room.
We use this calculation to make it easy to choose a radiator that will have a heat output that exceeds the heat loss of the room when connected to your heating system type.
If you don't know the room heat loss, you can use our calculator to find out.
What Delta Rating should I use?
- Δ50 = Gas or oil boiler with a flow temperature of around 75°C and a return temperature of around 65°C.
- Δ30 = Low temperature systems e.g heat pumps.
