I recently bought this HERMS from a guy that upgraded to all electric. This system only has an electric HLT. I am wanting to install a boil heating element and just have it on a rheostat like this http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_30&products_id=353 I have very little electrical experience and was wondering if anyone had any advice on the easiest way to wire everything up. I want to keep only 1 power main power cord or this would be a much simpler project. One of the orange extension cords goes directly to the pump and the other orange cord that is wired into the control box goes to a stir paddle in the HLT. I can add more if needed and I'll try to answer any questions. Thanks for the help!
