Patented Self-Regulating Element — 50% More Efficient
The dual self-regulating heating element automatically limits maximum operating temperature. When a towel is placed on the bar the element heats to optimum; when temperature is reached output reduces rather than cycling on/off at full power. 50% more energy-efficient than conventional electric towel bars.
