Hi
Wonder if someone can shed some light on this very 'grey' topic for me.
We have a Halstead Best 60 boiler, Gravity Feed hot water to a cylinder in loft and pumped CH. Currently this is controlled by a Potterton 2000 timer. For Hot water I can slide a switch and when the timer activates boiler kicks off and water goes up to the tank. For CH, slide both switches over and I get hot rads and water to the tank to.
What I have decided I would like, is to have a room thermostat so the boiler is not constantly on when we dont really need it pumping water around. A wireless sounds like a nice idea - dont really want to run cables and also it means I could shift the wireless unit to any suitable place.
What I am having difficulty getting to grips with is that all the wireless units I have looked at dont seem to be two channel, or at least its not clearly advertised as such. I would like a straight replacement unit so I dont have to faf about too much, but maybe the wireless unit are more geared up for Combi boilers, so the wireless unit only has to signal when the CH is required as the HW is all on demaned through combi.
if anyone can shed light on this, appreciated.
Many thanks
C.
