3 zone CH programmer - any recommendations?

[Henrik]

Hi,

Want to have 3 zones in my CH system - 1 for water, 1 for upstairs heat and 1 for downstairs heat. Anyone care to recommend a suitable programmer? I've used a Drayton Tempus 7 (2 zone) in my old house, and found it simple, reliable and good value.

Thanks

Henrik

Horstmann Channel XL Plus H37, or a similar title, is a good 3 channel programmer.

But its a sod to program! When I looked at one I couldn't find any way to copy days, so was very tedious.

Yes, they could all take a lesson from Honeywell with their ST9XXX series for ergonomics.

The Horstmann operating instructions are as clear as mud, and they couldn't have made the backplate more fiddly to hinge on the timer. 2 out of 10.

Thanks guys for your views....

Looks like Horstmann so!!

we had a couple of horstmann 3 channel programmers go wrong last year, screens went pixelated, agreed they are fiddly and annoying!

Maybe it is just me, but I've had no problems setting them up, but then I have no problems with Siemens and the new Vaillant programmers either
