Got up this morning and it was unusually warm downstairs, felt like the heat was on.
Checked the radiators and the heat was on in one zone. Odd, so I checked the thermostat and everything seemed fine, but I lowered it down to 50 anyway, thinking maybe I bumped it...whatever.
Got home around 4:00ish this afternoon and it was about 90 in that section of the house and the baseboards were warm. Changed the thermostat thinking that was the problem because the heat was not being called for in any other part of the house. As soon as I tuned the system on, immediately that zone called for heat.
So, can someone give me some idea where to look next before I call the repair man?
And, can I just turn off that one zone so that I can still get my hot water without having to turn the boiler off and on when I need it?
There is a valve going to that particular zone, can I just shut that off so that the system can do its normal thing without the heat running?
Thanks in advance for the help.
