Hard-Wired Thermostats

Having control over your heating system will give you complete peace of mind when it comes to ensuring that your home is energy efficient. When you reduce the energy that you use, you will also keep your bills low and that is where programmable thermostats can really make a difference. 
We have a number of programmable thermostats available including wired and wireless options, both of which can help you to manage how you use your heating. You can programme your heating to come on at set times during the day, you can also decide what days you want to use your heating more than others and you can even set a timed control for your hot water. Some will also enable you to set a holiday mode which means that you can even control your system while you are away. Installation is simple and quick while they all come with an easy-to-read display that makes it ideal for all homes and users.
