Happy to recommend these folk. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Failed after only 2 years *by J***S on 16 February 2022* I was initially pleased with this heating element. Easy to fit (if you know a bit of plumbing) and worked well. However I'm disappointed that the element has corroded and failed after less than two years. It now trips the circuit breaker whenever it's switched on due to corroding. So it now needs replacing. I make sure there is plenty of corrosion inhibitor in the system so it shouldn't have failed. Only 2 years is a very poor life span for this sort of thing. ## Frequently Bought Together - 400W Watt RICA Type 2597 Electric Heating Element for Heated Towel Rails & Radiators - Valdern TOWEL RAIL ELECTRIC HEATING ELEMENT (150W / 250W / 300W / 400W / 600W) WATT FOR BATHROOM HEATED TOWEL RAILS AND RADIATORS WARMERS/CHROME CAP / 1.2M LONG CABLE (250 Watt) - Trade Chemicals Towel Radiator Inhibitor & Protector - Inhibitor & Protector --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/63761708-400w-watt-rica-type-2597-electric-heating-element-for-heated](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/63761708-400w-watt-rica-type-2597-electric-heating-element-for-heated) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
