Chester,
The short answer is the water must be hot in the Aqua-Hot system and there are three ways to make that happen. One of them is the swtich you mention which fires the diesel burner and heats the water. Another is the neighboring switch that heats the water electrically. Using the electric option disables the air conditioners in my coach. The third way is to drive the coach and the water is heated from the waste heat of the diesel engine.
A properly working thermostat will start the circulation fan as well as the circulation pump for the zone calling for heat. I have a temperature indicator that shows the temperature of the water in the Aqua-Hot system. If that indicator is it its normal range of 190 to 205 you should get heat when the thermostat calls for it. Hope this helps. Russ
