You would never notice the difference in the electric bill. Also keep in mind that if something bad happens to your Keystoker and the fire goes out, your zone pumps will keep running and reduce the chance of frozen pipes.

FYI - A taco 007 which is a typical zone pump draws just under 82 watts. It takes about 12 hours of run time to use 1 kwh. Not much savings to be had holding them off for a few minutes.
