I think forced air systems, which is what Mr. Masraum is asking about can be zoned in a similar fashion.. solenoid controlled dampers would need to be installed etc..

Retrofitting something like this may not be cost effective...

I would love to go with a more modern system, but I'm not going to put that much money into this house. This house has also got Aluminum wiring, blech!

It'd be really easy to put a second thermostat in even if it's the only functional thermostat in the house.

Thanks guys.
