Kartell quote the output at Δt60, a standard test temperature. Many modern boilers, and especially heat pumps, run cooler than that, so the heat you actually get may be lower than the figure shown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMemphis is supplied with everything needed to fix it to the wall, and is pressure tested to 10 bar.

If you are replacing an existing towel rail, measure between your pipes first – if the spacing does not match, the pipework will need adjusting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the 500mm-wide size the rail stands 96–106mm out from the wall, with the pipe connections about 62mm out from the wall. Make sure the wall can take the weight once the rail is full of water and towels: solid walls are straightforward, but stud and plasterboard walls need suitable heavy-duty fixings or a timber support behind the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLooking after the finish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe over with a soft, damp cloth and dry to avoid water marks.
