Hot return pump

[Russell griffiths]

Evening all, I’ve got a hot return circuit in the house feeding 2 en-suite bathrooms and our boot room, I want to run the pump intermittently rather than on 24/7 putting occupancy sensors in isn’t an option as the house is fully boarded, I want to alter the pump timing at the pump end , so either some form of timer, or some sort of intelligent pump that is programmable. 
 

any thoughts people. 
 

@Nickfromwales you can keep your oar out. 😝😝

Our pump has its own timer, but cannot see why a simple single channel timer wouldn't do it for you.

No - keep it to a simple timer

Simple timer for waking hours, and a pipe thermostat strapped on the return pipe (a few meters away from the tank) to shut off the pump when the pipework is up to temperature

What pump is that mate, the grundfoss pumps have timers but I’ve been told there a bit poo.

Lowara Ecocirc pro. It also has the thermostat mentioned by @joth built in, which is adjustable.
