Replacing old central heating controller

Hi all

This is my first post on here so please be gentle with me! My central heating and hot water are currently controlled by a very old switchmaster 805 timer and I would like to replace it with a modern digital one. Can anyone tell me which type of controller I should be looking to buy (brand, type, etc)? I'm fairly confident that I will be able to fit it myself, but I want to make sure I'm buying the right thing!

Many thanks
Ange

    You could try any of the Drayton type such as this one. Or for Wireless this one. For the wiring you could look at this link. You might need someone with heating system/electrical knowledge or experience to assist you or even do it for you.
