Default A quick question about wiring..

ok im in the process of wiring up my system and had a question..is it ok to run all of my accessories (heater ,purge,opener etc.) to a constant power? i know most people run them to a switched power but it would be easier for me to run to a constant..will this hurt anything? i know there will be constant power but as long as i dont forget to turn the switches off i see no harm..i was just gonna put everything on the positive terminal post, right by the fuse box..so is it ok? thanks!

trying to think about my wiring... my bottle heater is on a constant with a switch of course and the purge is getting constant just with a relay for the switch and everything..... so yeah, I don't see any problems.
