Changing ceiling heating controllers

MickSmith5824 · Mar 18, 2020

Hello all

Still relatively new in to trying to do more of my own works...background commercial. Someone has asked me to change what he describes as ceiling heating controllers. Looking at these photos they do look like they are just controllers and set to desired heat and have no thermostat function. I have attached photos of what he wants changed for newer. The item with photos with cover off and on is for his living room ceiling heating and the other one controls the bedroom ceiling heating. Are these easy enough to swap out? And what new ones would you recommend? Thanks

They are thermostats, Use suitable ESWA replacements;

They are just thermostats, any thermostat with suitable current rating can be used.

I'm quite surprised that people are still using that ridiculous system though, it wastes so much energy and cost a ridiculous amount to run.
