2 Stage Thermostat

in Radiant Heating
I have a client who is considering radiant ( staple up) for a kitchen/ dining room in their home.  They currently have HWBB. 

Does anyone know of a 2 stage thermostat I could use so that as long as the radiant satisfied the heating needs the BB would be off,  but if there were a significant cold snap and the Radiant couldn't keep up the baseboard would satisfy the thermostat?  My concern is, that the home is old, and drafty, and that the btu/s.f. provided by the radiant will not be sufficient on the design day.

Thanks, Chris

    Any 2 stage should work...

    Honeywell, Johnson, White Rodgers, Tekmar
    It's not so much a case of "You got what you paid for", as it is a matter of "You DIDN'T get what you DIDN'T pay for, and you're NOT going to get what you thought you were in the way of comfort". Borrowed from Heatboy.
