You might be interested in this. It is not exactly a thermostat but an accessible timer.
Danfoss 4033 24-Hour Mechanical Programmer TIMED/OFF/ON (Constant) for heating and same for domestic hot water. Off and On override. this switch is available from danfoss randall ltd of bedford.they do a braille version which is very accessible. it has 2 switches, one switch
for hot water, the other for the heating system. they are clearly brailled h/w each switch has 3 positions, off, on and timed.there is a rotary dial with dots around it, a little like a braille watch. there
is a reference dot so you can use the rotary dial to enable you to setthe 24 hour clock. there are 4 colour coded tappets, 2 red 2 blue, one set for each
function, namely heating and water. simply slide the tappets to thedesired on/off times. the tappets are also marked with tactile markings, a series
of different numbers of dots.I think you may have to specifically requesta braille version of the timer. this switch is very well designed for a blind person
to use.I would suggest giving this company a ring before purchasing, and asking them if
it will work with your particular heating system. They have a wide rangeon offer, and do not forget to ask them if they can supply a Braille version if this
is required. Details as follows. Danfoss Randall Ltd. Ampthill Road, Bedford MK42 9ER Tel: 0845 121 7400 Fax: 0845 121 7515 Email danfossrandall@xxxxxxxxxxx Sales Office Tel: 0845 1217 500 Sales Office Fax: 0845 1217 510----- Original Message ----- From: "Barry Hill" <bbinc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi guysI believe this has been covered before, some months back, but I didn't havecentral heating back then, so I wasn't interested in the thread Sorry for the revisit.. I'm looking to buy a talking central heating thermostat. Is there such a thing? I've checked the net but can only find the voice controlled or telephone linked ones, and Cobalt have nothing but a plug in stat for a single appliance.
