in THE MAIN WALL
I have a one-pipe steam heating system with a radiator in each of seven rooms. There are times I do not need heat in some of the rooms, so I close the supply valves to the radiators in those rooms and sometimes some of the other rooms get too warm, so I close the supply valves to their radiators and re-open them when they cool down. What is the best way to install automatic temperature controls in each radiator so I can easily select and maintain the desired temperature in each room as my requirements change? Are there specific mfrs and devices I should look into?
