REQ: Advice on replacing a CH and Hot Water programmer
Hi All,
I've just moved into a house that has a "Glow worm - economy plus" boiler (in the kitchen), it also has a controller (in the kitchen - see below for more details) and a temperature control (in the lounge). I'd like to replace the controller, currently a Honeywell ST699 controller, unit was not marked with a model but I have looked at several honeywell units and this seems the most likely. http://www.grantandstone.co.uk/heati...rols/st699.htm With this I can program 2 on / off times or manually control the central heating and the hot water. I'd like to be able to set: CH - on at 7am off at 8:30 am on at 5pm off at 10 pm Hot water - on at 7am off at 7:30am If I switch the CH to TWICE and the hot water to ONCE, then the hot water is on from ON1 (7am) until OFF2 (10pm) not ON1 and OFF1 ! I don't like the way that the hot water and central heating can't be controlled independantly. Surely if I can control the system manually then I can replace the timer/controller and have the functionality I require ? Could you suggest a suitable alternative controller that will give more flexiblilty ? Can I use a Honeywell ST6400C controller instead ? Many thanks |
