Anyone ever taking a outdoor reset stop it from making a contact with a thermostat? It's in a church building.For some reason the boiler comes on and makes the basement hot with heat off in the rest of the building.Havn't looked at the building yet.The tekmar rep was there a month ago and said it was the outside temp sensor. So he put it up or down 10 deg but still is overheating. Not sure but I think its a steam system.The church insolated the all the pipes and its still hot. They were woundering if the could put a tt downstairs to stop the heating. Kinda sounds weard but what if its the outside temp sensor? Could you keep the sensor Run one wire into the tt and one on the other side of the sensor so if the outside calls the basement tt wouldn't make contact till the sensor and tt makes the circut?

    Outdoor reset is told to fire by the t-stat. If the boiler is firing, there is a call for heat somewhere. Maybe unhook the t-stat and see if it fires? A pro would be able to find this quickly.
