How to install an electric calortec towel dryer? Is it waterproof, can it be installed next to a water source?

Thanks Ian. I asked an electrician about this and he was concerned because there are no product specifications anywhere to say whether the timer control unit on the bottom of the towel dryer is waterproof or splashproof to be fitted near a water source, as I intend to install it near the shower cubicle. Any help would be appreciated. It has been impossible to get any information online and Argos who sell it were useless.

think these just use an electrical immersion heater, should be a case of mounting it on the wall, then having an electrician wire it in. the only thing to watch out for are any electrical regulations with regards to electrical sources in 'wet' rooms.
