What does an aquastat or thermostat do?  It senses something and then 
sends a signal somewhere.  In this case you'd be sensing the tank 
temperature and turning on and off the heat pump and it's associated 
pump to keep the tank temperature within your target zone.

How would you do it in real life?  You'd record it over time.  Try the 
Printegrator model.
