Hello All,
I'm considering having a central heating system with a
combi-boiler put into my house, to replace the current
storage heaters and gas fire. However, I believe that the
accessibility of the controls on combi-boilers and/or their
thermostats/operating boxes may be a problem.
Can anyone advise me as to what they are using in relation
to its accessibility to someone who is totally blind. Is
there anything available which has speech chips built into
it or which current Braille overlays can be bought for or,
in the absence of these, which can easily be Braiiled up
with stick-on transparent plastic so that they can be fully
accessible in respect of on/off buttons, timer and
thermostat dials, etc?
Thanks in anticipation for any assistance and provision of
combi-boiler/thermostat makes, types and model numbers
wherever possible.
Best regards,
John.
