I roll my own, so to speak, and no complaints, but I don't have as good an enclosure as the Hunter.

These are common electrical components, and anyone can buy them. But you must buy them in quantity in order to get a good price. On a one-at-a-time basis, you go with something like Hunter's.

are you just using a relay that one would use for a circulating pump on a boiler system?

Heck no! Power relays will have horsepower ratings. What Hunter uses will have their HP numbers on the relay itself, most likely.
