Designer comfort

Scandinavians know comfort – their concept of hygge encapsulates the bliss of snuggling indoors, sheltered from the elements. They also know good design, specialising in combining functionality with elegant form. These concepts – comfort, innovation and aesthetics –are embodied in Mill’s energyefficient heating solutions

Chic Heat

With its minimalist white design and curved edges, the Mill panel heater appears to float on the wall, while also safely heating the room to your desired temperature.

The Mill ‘Gentle Air’ oil filled radiator is more energy efficient than other oil heaters and the enclosed element gently heats without burning dust or drying the air. Sleek and portable, with an inbuilt handle, this heater is a stylish asset, wherever you put it.

When you need a small heater that pumps out the heat, the Mill ‘PTC’ compact fan heater is a powerful tool in a chic package. The PTC heating element has a lower surface temperature than other fan heaters, meaning it won’t dry the air as much and is easy to manoeuvre.

Smarter Heating

Mill has raised the technology bar with their new Wi-fi Generation 3 panel heaters

Use the Mill app to set your temperature and the heater will adjust itself proportionally once that temp is reached, lowering its power level (and energy use). It also features predictive heating, which learns how long it takes to heat the room and behaves accordingly – if you want the room at 23 degrees at 5pm, the heater will start heating in time for a warm welcome. All Mill Wi-fi Generation 3 heaters carry the same signature styles and of the original Mill heating range.

Tools & materials

n Safety equipment (mask, gloves, ear and eye protection) n Tape measure and pencil n Circular saw with straightedge n Clamps n Drill with 3mm and square-drive bits n Lint-free cloth n 26mm-thick timber panel• n 180-grit abrasive paper with sanding block n Timber adhesive n 8G x 50mm stainless steel square-drive screws n Timber oil n Robe hook

1 From the timber panel, use a circular saw with a clamped straightedge to cut a 840mm x 260mm shelf, a holder back 240mm x 80mm and front 240mm x 40mm, plus two 160mm x 40mm stoppers. Smooth the cuts and round over the edges slightly using 180-grit abrasive paper.

2 On the back of the shelf, make holes for the holders by marking 340mm in from the ends, then 35mm and 145mm in from one edge; drill right through with a 3mm bit.

3 Predrill into the side of the front and back holders, 40mm from the ends, avoiding going through, then apply adhesive. On the top of the shelf, centre the holders over the holes to secure with 50mm screws.

4 On the shelf back, centre the stoppers 90mm in from the ends. Predrill 40mm in from the ends of the stoppers, avoiding going all the way through the shelf. Apply adhesive and secure with 50mm screws.

5 Apply two coats of timber oil with a cloth to all sides, leaving to dry after each coat.

6 Attach a robe hook to the side for a towel, predrilling to secure with supplied screws.

Keep in mind...

n When using cutting tools and sanding, wear the recommended safety gear and work in a wellventilated area.

Adjust the shelf length to fit the width of your bathtub and choose moisture-resistant timber and stainless steel fasteners to avoid rust
