Does Gordon need to be hardwired to a timer switch?

When your electrician installs Gordon, your electrician can either wire the unit to be controlled by a standard on/off switch or a timer switch. Many of our customers find the more efficient way to control Gordon is to have a timer that comes on 2 or 3 hours before using the towels (to ensure they are lovely and warm) and timed to go off 2 or 3 hours after using the towels (to ensure they are completely dry).

The Clipsal app programmable switch is:

The manual programmable timer switch is:

Cabac routine timer switch

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.

Does Gordon dry all four towels at once effectively?

Yes, Gordon will! each of the 4 fins are designed to hold one towel each, so the unit will warm and dry up to 4 towels very efficiently and effectively.

How is Gordon controlled/turned on and off?

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. There are quite a lot of timer switch options on the market but we suggest these which are easy to setup and program via a simple phone app https://www.clipsal.com/products/detail?CatNo=41E10PBSWM&itemno=41E10PBSWM-VW&tab-document-1=0#Overview

What stops the towels sliding off?

Gordon uses a non slip powder-coated textured finish.
