	<strong>Message</strong>: I recently signed up for my electric utility company&#39;s &quot;Time of Day&quot; power plan where Peak Power rates are between 2:<span class="scayt-misspell" data-scayt_word="00pm" data-scaytid="1">00pm</span> and 5:<span class="scayt-misspell" data-scayt_word="00pm" data-scaytid="3">00pm</span>, weekdays, all other hours and weekends are &quot;Off Peak&quot;. &nbsp;Is there a way that I can control when the <span class="scayt-misspell" data-scayt_word="VS520SZ" data-scaytid="5">VS520SZ</span> engages the heating/circulating to avoid running during the Off Peak times? &nbsp;Perhaps adding a timer such as is used on domestic hot water heaters into the circuit? &nbsp;If this might be an option, would you have a schematic available as to where to insert the control into the wiring? &nbsp;Thanks for any help that you can provide!<br />

	I should have said: &nbsp;&quot;&nbsp;Is there a way that I can control when the&nbsp;<span class="scayt-misspell" data-scayt_word="VS520SZ" data-scaytid="7">VS520SZ</span>&nbsp;engages the heating/circulating to avoid running during the ON Peak times?&quot;<br />
