Time Guard ETU 8000 Replacement

[RobSonn]

Hi all
My timer for Gledhill heater packed up. No longer sold. What would be the best direct replacement?

 

[JohnD]

do you have an economy-7 type tariff?

What do you use the timer for?

Is there one heating element, or two?

A photograph of your appliance would be useful. There are lots. https://www.gledhill.net/products/

Make sure you get one rated at 16A - not 13A.

Bottom one looks like a simple replacement.

I have economy 7 meter but currently on flat rate tariff. Water heater has 2 immersion heaters but one is on peak boost one is the main one that was set on timer. I believe the other one just works on request. Timer was to heat the water during pre set hours at night. Looking to change my tariff back soon

Oh. You might want something more complicated that can do both elements - but not at the same time.

Like the E7 timer John linked.

The Horstmann has a good reputation and can switch both elements, which is quite usual

but I think yours is wired for individual controls.

i can only see one circuit on the Timeguard

I think this is only for the main immersion heater as the other is activated on demand via button
Will try newer version of time guard I guess
