oh boy...
at least that should be about the only task i have :-D
/bo
hmmm i think the only ways is to use relays.... but if i understand it right you practical just short 2 terminals at the boiler to make it fire up....
and if i'm right there is no load on this system... so contacts does not need to be rated for much... strange they use 230V for simple control purpose... but oh well

I will create a JIRA and add it to the TODO. Ho hum.
