I have a brand new indirect water heater in my house, where the gas boiler is used to heat the unit.
I havn't put much thought into automating this, but I can see where one can save on gas lowering the aquastat during the day where everyone is out of the house and at night when everyone is sleeping and then putting it in the "normal" setting when people are home.
I doubt any manufacturer even creates an aquastat that can be controlled in this fashion.
Ha anyone automated something like this before? Good/bad idea?
