Shut Down Service

Use a Programmer
Heating programmers save you the hassle of having to manually switch the heating on and off and will help you to minimise unnecessary use. You can predetermine the times your heating is on in advance, set different programmes for different days of the week and set your heating system before you go away.
Positioning your Thermostat
Installing a programmable room thermostat in your home allows you to easily and accurately manage the temperature of your home.
Programmable thermostats, room thermostats and thermostatic radiator valves all need a free flow of air to sense the temperature accurately. They must not be covered by curtains or blocked by furniture. Nearby electric fires, televisions or lamps could also stop them from working properly.
Types of Heating Controls

Room Thermostat

Programmer
A more sophisticated version of a timer, you can set different heating patterns for different days of the week and sometimes alter the pattern e.g. for a party or holidays.
Thermostatic Radiator Valves
These allow you to easily adjust the temperature of individual radiators and turn radiators off or on according to whether you’re using a room or not
