<p>A central heating control system for controlling the central heating of a dwelling. A central heating system is provided with a control module for switching the heating system between on and off modes in response to signals at a transceiver. The on and off modes are set on a screen of a graphical user interface where strips are displayed relative to a clock. A user contacts the strip and by dragging either end, the strip is expanded or contracted to increase or decrease a respective time period over which the heating system is to be switched on. The time period is transmitted to the control module. The graphical user interface is on a smartphone, tablet or computer to allow remote control from an internet enabled device and thereby provide active management of resource usage. The system may transmit data via the internet.</p> |
