How do I accomplish two zone constant circulation? I will be using a Munchkin Vision 1.

As I mentioned in another thread, I am worried about the upstairs in my open floorplan home overheating.

    Thermostat

    Put a room thermostat on the second floor, shut the pump off if the room gets too warm, No?

    Mixing

    Add a 3-way mixing valve with it's own reset curve for the upstairs.

    the only true way to get ....

    ...continuous circulation in two zones, is when you use Motorized Mixing for each zone with outdoor Reset and Indoor Temperature Feedback. Balancing could achieve this too, technically. However, if the conditions for each zone vary (solar or other heat gain inflicted not permanently with the same rate) then Indoor Feedback really is the only answer.


    Hope this helps,

    Regards,
