Patent ID: 8785824

Claim:
A boiler regulation system ( 100 ) for diverting energy from a boiler to hot water production, said boiler regulation system ( 100 ) comprising: (a) a housing ( 110 ); (b) a thermostat dial ( 120 ), a sensor connection ( 130 ), and a plurality of connections ( 140 ) each disposed on the housing ( 110 ), the connections ( 140 ) each comprise an in port and an out port wherein the in port is operatively connected a close-on-rise thermostat ( 250 ) and the out port is operatively connected to a heating zone valve/pump, the sensor connection ( 130 ) is operatively connected to a domestic hot water pipe; (c) a step down transformer ( 205 ), a first general-purpose relay coil ( 210 ), the close-on-rise thermostat ( 250 ), and a first normally closed contact relay ( 310 ) corresponding to a heating zone valve/pump each disposed in the housing ( 110 ); wherein when the close-on-rise thermostat ( 250 ) senses a rise in temperature when hot water is in demand the close-on-rise thermostat ( 250 ) closes sending a first signal to the first general-purpose relay coil ( 210 ) and the first general-purpose relay coil ( 210 ) energizes causing the first normally closed contact relay ( 310 ) to open, discontinuing power to the heating zone valve/pump thereby enabling boiler energy to be used for hot water; wherein when the close-on-rise thermostat ( 250 ) senses a drop in temperature when hot water is not in demand the close-on-rise thermostat ( 250 ) opens and the first generally-purpose relay coil ( 210 ) de-energizes allowing the first normally closed contact relay ( 310 ) to close and power to resume to the heating zone valve/pump.
