A smart way to schedule warm towels and reduce unnecessary electricity use

Would you like warm, dry towels when you need them without leaving your heated towel rail on around the clock? AB Electrical can install a smart control that lets you set and adjust your rail’s schedule from an app on your phone.

A Simple Way to Take Control

Choose when your heated towel rail switches on and off to suit your household. You could have it running before your morning shower, then turn off automatically while everyone is out for the day. After all, you may want a warm towel at 7:00 am, but probably don’t need the rail running at 2:00 am

The control is installed out of sight behind the wall and connects wirelessly to the phone app, so there’s no need for a visible timer in your bathroom.

Adjust Your Schedule as the Seasons Change

As spring brings warmer days, you may find your towels need less help to dry. You can adjust the schedule in the app whenever your routine or the weather changes.

Running your heated towel rail only when it’s needed can help reduce unnecessary electricity use while keeping warm towels ready at the times that matter to you.

If you’d like to explore smart heated towel rail control for your home, call Clynt or Howard on 0800 688 244 or email office@abelectrical.co.nz to discuss the options available.
