Boiler Timer Control

A boiler timer control helps to control the temperature at different times of day for both the hot water and the heating system. These controls, if present in your home heating system, will give you an ability to control each of these systems independent of one another. They allow you to vary the heating of the hot water and the home.

Picking a Digital Control

Digital controls are great for any homeowner. Not only should you consider installing a digital control but you should also consider investing in a remote control that is portable throughout the home. Digital boiler timer controls come in a variety of styles and types. Pick something that is intuitive to use. You don't want a model that requires you to dig up the user manual in order to figure out how to change the temperature in your hot water unit or central heating system.

They reduce the amount of fuel you use. Also, you can reduce the hot water heating temperature when not in use. Plus, you’ll only heat your radiator system when you need to. In addition, you’ll reduce the amount of heat you use in your home when you’re not present in the home.
