Abstract

A thermostatic control device (10) for regulating the flow of heating fluid in a conduit, the thermostatic control device comprising actuation means (16,17) operable to alter the flow of heating fluid in the conduit, processing 'means (21), for controlling the actuation means, a first temperature sensor (18) for sensing the ambient temperature in the vicinity of the device, and a second temperature sensor (19) for sensing the temperature of the conduit, the processing means being operable to receive temperature inputs from the first and second temperature sensors and produce an output based on the temperature inputs for controlling the actuation means. Preferably the processing. means is operable to calculate a correction to the temperature input measured by the first sensor using the temperature input measured by the second sensor.
