Hi all

Currently we have underfloor heating in our bathroom, it has a pretty basic Siemens temperature controller.

We are looking to replace this with a programmable timer of some description so that we can set this to come on at certain times of the day.

Can anyone provide a recommendation of what I should be looking for? Have seen some nice ones with a touch panel that would be ideal, but unsure if there would be any compatibility issues or if this is a pretty straightforward operation?

Thanks!

My first one was an "OJ Microline". It was very flexible and event based, but struggled to keep the temperature where I set it.

 

The replacement is "Warmup" branded. It's simpler than I would like but it controls the floor temp fine. They plug into the thermostat under the floor. This one lets you define four periods in a day, it alternates between two temperatures you can define. Event based would be better so you can change it more often and have more flexibility.

 

I'd like another more flexible one, but this one is good enough I'm not sure if it's worth the bother.
