How many Thermostats

Just relocate the t-stat to that room period? If it's the coldest you should never have a problem with the other room's getting to cold. Might have an issue with to warm but just try for a happy medium....With that many different room's why not break the family room off and put it on it's own zone? Better control all the way around..

    How many Thermostats

    With hot water baseboard heat can I have more than one thermostat on a zone? The zone covers three different rooms. A living room, dinning room / kitchen, and a new added on family room. The new family room has alot of glass in it and one door. I have enough board in this room but it gets a little cooler than the other rooms until the thermostat calls for heat. I was thinking of putting another thermostat in the new room also.

    I agree

    ONE thermostat per Zone. If you can, create more Zones for more thermostat locations and independent temperature control for each.

    Another option would be to use one thermostat for this single zone that has remote sensing capabilities. Ie: tekmar 500 Series Thermostats allow you to connect remote Air Sensors to them for temperature averaging. Then the temperature would be averaged across the thermostat and remote Air Sensor location.

    Use the 508 with one remote Air Sensor 076/077 if you want to have no setback, or a 510 with up to TWO 076/077 remote Air Sensors if you want this stat to be programmable for setback.

    Hope this helps.
