The BZ10’s grouphead houses two electric heating elements and a thermostat to monitor temperature at the grouphead, and the boiler pressure/temperature is monitored by a pressurestat (regulator).

New features on the Version 2 model:

• Switches have been upgraded to toggle switches, previously push button switches, for easier activation.
• Indicator lights have been upgraded to LED’s, which are longer lasting than the previous regular bulbs.
