Why Gordon – Flash Drying electric Towel Rail?
1. Temperature
Designed to operate at a constant Low Surface Temperature standard of 43°C ensures complete safety. The temperature will rise slightly when covered to minimise drying time and maximise efficiency.
2. Airflow
This was the clever part, how do you promote the convection currents that will provide a constant flow of warm dry air over the towel? This is where our two decades of experience designing high-performance radiators combined with state-of-the-art modelling techniques come in. It’s essentially all in the architectural design.
3. Humidity
This is where the traditional ladder rail design breaks down completely. Not only does it not provide adequate airflow, but due to the horizontal nature of the towel hanging it also traps a pocket of damp air underneath the towel that, once it has become saturated with moisture, cannot absorb any more and so prevents the towel from drying further in that area. Gordon towel radiator’s use of long vertical fins provides free air galleries that constantly exhaust the humid air, replacing it with dry air from underneath the towel warmer.

Gordon’s Impact on your
Towels Hygiene
1
Prevents bacterial and fungal growth
Damp towels create a warm, moist environment that promotes the growth of bacteria and fungi, posing potential health risks. However, using Gordon, which is three times faster than traditional rails, can significantly reduce the time towels remain damp, directly limiting bacterial growth and enhancing hygiene.
2
Better Skin
Bacteria and fungus can multiply when towels are left damp for a period of time, which can become the culprit of skin "infections, acne flares, and irritation. This can be avoided by keeping your towels fresh and dry.
3
Prevents the risk of MRSA infection
“I worry about towels that remain damp or moist,” says Susan Whittier, director of clinical microbiology at New York-Presbyterian and Columbia University Medical Center.
“That’s a breeding ground for MRSA,” an infection caused by antibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The expert further adds - . “As long as your towels are drying completely between use, there’s almost no chance of passing bacteria from one person to another,”
With Gordon, you can ensure a complete dry towel without waiting for too long that can be reused while eliminating the MRSA risks.

Frequently asked questions about Gordon
How long does it take for Gordon to get delivered?
Gordons are dispatched within 2-3 working days after getting an order. Deliveries across the UK are delivered the next day of dispatch. Deliveries to the US and Canada can take between 4-8 working days.
Would my towels stay on top of Gordon?
Yes, 100%. GORDON is a friction coefficient product. Most ladder rails are chrome or their surface finish is certainly of a satin presentation.
So they shed towels in a way that our non-slip fine textured coating selected never will. (Coefficient of friction is defined as the ratio of the force required to move to slide surfaces over each other, and the force holding them together)

Gordon Single US variant - 1.82 amps
Gordon Double US variant - 3.64 amps

Will Gordon heat my bathroom?
Gordon’s primary function is to warm and dry your towels very quickly and efficiently. The unit will give add some additional heat output, however, we don’t suggest you rely on it as a main heat source unless your bathroom is really small.
How is Gordon controlled?
When your electrician installs Gordon, they will need to wire the towel warmer back to a control switch. The switch can be a simple standard on/off switch on the wall, or the most efficient method of control is a timer switch.
How did you determine that Gordon can dry towels upto three times quicker than regular rails?
We reached this conclusion by running multiple tests.
Our tests comprised warming the regular towel rails with their recommended heating element of 350w. Whereas, Gordon's warming element was just 200w.
The outcomes showed that to reach atmospheric humidity level, where all the towels could be considered dry, Gordon required only 84 minutes while the traditional rail required 27 extra minutes. In terms of powerful utilization of the energy, it implies that Gordon requires just 43% of the energy when compared to traditional rails to actually dry the towel. You can run Gordon throughout the year and still save up to £150 in energy prices when compared to traditional rails.
Can Gordon be installed on any wall material?
Yes, Gordon’s safe operating temperature and easy wall mounted bracket system means it can be installed on any wall material such as plaster, timber panel, tiles and MDF.
Is Gordan's powder coat finish durable?
Gordon’s powder coated finish is super tough and long lasting. It’s a dry pigmented polyester powder. The coating process uses an electric charge that causes the dry powder to fuse to the surface of the metal. This is then baked in a curing oven to achieve a smooth coating that creates a hard finish, much thicker and tougher than conventional paint providing a layer of protection against corrosion, scratches/chipping and fading. The pigment can’t transfer because it’s in the plastic itself, it’s not like a dye or ink.
