Taco and Iworx

I really like the Zone control Boxes from Iworx better than Taco's Zone control.
For one if a relay (which has a certain Switching life expectancy)Fails to operate you can just replace that "Omron" relay instead of pulling the entire Zone Control Box off of the wall and into the Trash.
In my book that is "Green"
Additional benefits are that you have all of the LED's on the front were you can see which zone is in operation without having to go to the Chiropractor with a stiff neck or getting a Mirrow because the Installer installed the box close to a corner where you cannot see the LED's
Switch capacity of 10 A
Freeze protection:The DHW production can also be prioritized but you can also restrict it to 1Hour so that the house will not "Lock up" in DHW production and freeze the house.
So now Rumor is that Taco Acquired Iworx !I just hope that Taco puts the "Green" color to this Box.. and makes the "SR series "Go away"
Just my opion Richard from Heatmeister :-)

I like
the idea of the lights on the front too. I have gone to Pep Boys Auto supply and bought a cheap mirror on occasion to stick on the wall, when the lights are facing a corner and I want to be able to see. WW

That is funny but very inventive. For just a couple bucks more you can have all the additional benefits.
I hope that taco keeps this line going and do not "Kill" it.0 -
