Re: Urgent question on AW10's

There are some more pics here of Mike Huggins heating control...
http://www.blackfirs.com/boiler.htm

Mike uses 1 module to switch in and out the existing conventional timer
(used for backup) and 3 further modules for the different heating circuits.

I'm ashamed to say I STILL haven't got round to doing my heating yet but
Keith recons I should just use Main Relays (instead of AW10s) and wire them
back to HomeVision which is in node zero off the garage and therefore near
the boiler.
