Zennor - Anthracite Dual Fuel Towel Rail H1400mm x W400mm Thermostatic
Product code: 20404
Material
Made from high-quality steel, this towel rail offers both excellent value and dependable durability. Steel is the go-to choice for bathrooms, designed to resist knocks, bumps, and the rigours of everyday use.
Style
This is a curved ladder towel rail, where horizontal bars arch outward between two vertical collectors. That outward curve makes it easier to feed towels through and increases storage space—an especially handy touch for busy bathrooms.
Colour
Anthracite brings contemporary elegance into your bathroom. Inspired by the rich, smoky tones of natural coal, its matt finish delivers a bold, modern look that complements both minimalist and industrial interiors. It’s a stylish choice for those wanting more than just function from their fixtures—perfectly blending visual impact with everyday practicality.
Heat Source
This towel rail features dual fuel capability—working with your central heating system in winter and switching to electric-only mode during the warmer months. Enjoy warm towels all year round without needing to turn on your full heating system.
Accessories
Supplied with all necessary components for wall mounting: brackets, masonry fixings, chrome bleed valve, and blanking plug. Also included are all dual fuel accessories: a thermostatic electric heating element, 2 x T-pieces, and a pair of angled manual valves.
The T-piece allows the electric element and valve to be installed simultaneously. The second T-piece is optional, ideal for symmetrical valve setups. The element can be installed on either side depending on your preference or plumbing setup.
The Element – Talus Thermostatic Digital Element
This element provides precise temperature control and added functionality via a simple digital interface:
-
Temperature Control: Choose from 45°C to 65°C in 5°C steps, with LED lights indicating your selected temperature.
-
Standby Mode: Indicated by a blue light on the power button.
-
Heating Mode: Press the power button (red light shows), then use the ‘T’ button to select your preferred heat level.
-
Boost Modes:
-
Boost 2hr: Red light on the clock button—heats for 2 hours, then returns to standby.
-
B1 Program: Blue clock light—boosts for 2 hours every 24 hours.
-
B2 Program: Red clock light—2 hours on, followed by 10 hours standby, repeating.
-
-
Frost Protection: Activates automatically if liquid temperature drops below 7°C.
-
Error Mode: Engages if the liquid temperature drops below -10°C or exceeds 85°C (shown by slow flashing red lights).
Full installation instructions and a user guide are provided with the element.
Please note: This electric element must be installed by a registered competent electrician. Incorrect installation will void the product warranty. Fuse size is based on a nominal 230V UK supply, but your electrician will determine the exact requirement based on your home's voltage.

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.
