My oil furnace wall-mounted thermostat is located not too far from my pellet stove on first floor. I'd like to have thermostatic control from a sensor on the second or third floor. It would be difficult and expensive to run wires from those floors. Is there a remote control thermostat that would allow me to have the remote sensor where I take it on the upper floors that would communicate with the switch that is now on the first floor? In other words, something similar to the Acumen thermostat I have for my pellet stove--but for my oil furnace?
Something like this?

Although the stove does send its heat upward, and I use little oil heat, it's tricky to get the oil thermostat and the stove to play well together--so for the times I'd like the upstairs radiators to get going I'd like a remote sensor.
