Replaced Steam Heating Control (Heat Timer) with Better Unit

Member Posts: 8
I wanted to boast about a new steam heating control unti I installed from a company in Chicago call R&D Electronics. While my Heat Timer Steam Heating control worked, heating the building whenever it is cold oustide has it's disadvantages - Expensive and too much heat in mild temps. R&D offers various steam heating controls that heat your building based on the inside tempature (what a novel concept!) Also the price is right, almost 200-300% less than Heat Timer's compariable models. The unit I purchased comes with 3 thermostats which you wire to the main control box. The unit works by averaging the internal temp and firing the boiler when the average is below the set point. There are numerious time setings and other features to make sure the building is heated when needed and not every hour like to heat timer.
