Water heating controls
Housing statistics and English Housing Survey, glossary, published by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities in 2019, defines water heating controls as:
- Cylinder thermostat: A thermostat is a device that automatically controls temperature. Thermostats are usually attached to the outsider of the hot water cylinder but can also comprise a diverter valve type arrangement with a thermocouple connected to the tank.
- Time-clock: A system whereby the water heating is controlled by the same device that controls the central heating or by an independent timer.
