Thermostat for 1 pipe steam

We need a new thermostat for our 1 pipe steam as our old one will no longer hold the program. Is the Honeywell TH6110 still the recommended one? We don't care to program from our phones but do want to be able to program setback at night and on weekends.

    As long as your system tolerates a setback well the TH6110 is fine. I personally prefer the VP8000 series with it's touch screen but the 6110 will perform good.
    Single pipe quasi-vapor system. Typical operating pressure 0.14 - 0.43 oz. EcoSteam ES-20 Advanced Control for Residential Steam boilers. Rectorseal Steamaster water treatment

    @Chris...on the T6110 are you talking about the installer set up functions? We have the thermostat and are trying to figure it out. Thanks!

    What are you having trouble with exactly?

    In the book under installer settings there is a set up function...5 is stage 1 heat cycle rate and 6 is stage 2 heat cycle rate. Both settings are for gas or oil furnaces of less than 90% efficiency. With each of those settings you can then choose a secondary setting of #1 for steam or gravity....we set it to 5 and 1
