Hi
I have an electric hot water boiler I believe it is a HYDRA model. It has three zones and I recently replaced the thermostats to Honeywell RTH230B, 5-2 Day programmable. One of the zones, in the basement, is NOT working right. The thermostat is set at 70 F and 60 F. The problem is that the tempature never goes below 70F, in fact, tonight for instance, the temp. was at 76 F and the water starting circulating and heating up the area more. The temp would go up to 79 F before switching off. I hope I have explained this well enough to get some sort of advice because I am at wits end. I don't know if it is the thermostat and why would it call for heat when it already is above the set temp?
Thanks.
