Thermostatic zone valve vs. Circulator

Is it feasible to use a thermostatic zone valve to "zone" a section of the house, the bedroom, instead of using a circulator for that zone?

    Never Heard of a Thermostatic

    Zone valve. If something is thermostatic does that not mean it has to mix water temp? ie, Mixing Valve? Which in turn means you need a pump for the system side.

    I am not suggesting that I will not need a circulator. What I am wondering is instead of multiple circulators can I accomplish the same thing with a zone valve. I.E. I would like to control the master bedroom seperately. Could I use a zone valve vs. a circulator .

    Sure

    As  long as you have a system pump
