I am having a devel of a time finding a replacement thermostats for my Hydronic system.

I have tried a couple and they do not wire up correctly, even though they say for "Hot Water systems" they are for 2 wire and I have a 3 wire system.

OK, I have a Lochinvar Knight high efficiency boiler with 6 zone valves.
The zone valves are: White-Rodgers Type 1311-102

I want to replace my old murcury thermostat with non programmable digital ones.

The zones take three wires:
4 and 6 to open valves
5 and 6 to close valves.

Don't need anything fancy - just something simple and hopefully not expensive and something I coule get at the big box store.

Thanks
George M

Are you set on digital. Or would you be happy with any thermostat without mercury. Honeywell makes a great heat only (looks almost exactly like the old t87) themostat.
