Remotely operated thermostats

I have a coustomer, with a home on Cape Cod, he lives in Boston. He has his home maintain 50*F when he is away. He has a system, that allows him to toggle on and off two zones of heat (6 zone system). But would like to be able to work all the zones. And have some control of the set temperature. He usually would do this the night before he came down, or the morning he came down. Has anyone had good luck with a system such as this? What brands have you used? Pros and Cons? Any information would be great

thanks in advance

Chuck Shaw

    Tekmar

    I do lots of weekend houses with multiple zones. I use a Tekmar house control 371. For more than 5 zones add a zone controller. Each zone can have its own occupied and unoccupied temp. A simple short between the occupied terminals switches the entire house. You can even turn the dhw off. Good Luck
