Save Money With The Best Heating Controls And Systems

There are five main types of heating controls that can help you to save money on your heating.

● Room thermostat – measures how warm your room is and adjusts the boiler accordingly. You can get programmable or timer versions of these.

● Thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) – allow you to adjust the temperature of individual radiators and turn them off completely.

● Timer – turns your boiler or hot water on or off at set times, such as off when you're at work, and on ready for when you get home.

● Programmer – lets you set different times and temperatures for your heating and hot water for different days of the week. For example, you might want your heating to be hotter and on for longer at the weekend than during the week. You can find out more information about using timers and programmers, and see our expert tips lower down this page.

● Smart thermostat - allows you to control the temperature in your home when you are not there, for example from your smartphone or tablet.                                                         

But not all controls will work with all heating systems. The heating controls you need will depend on the type of heating system you have - combination or heat-only - and whether or not your hot water comes direct from your boiler.
