    Zone valves

    Can I jump the zone valves on my hot water baseboard heat to run 2 zones at the same time? Each valve has 6 wires on them.

        Please get me the stock number [valve number] on each valve. I found a european valve that uses six wires. Also the manufacturer TACO, DOLE etc.

            zone valve(s)

            From the looks of things you can probably hitch two valves off one thermostat. the diagram I copied shows six terminals top two are thermostat, so you parallel two wires from each valve. hitch thermostat here. parallel the 24 feed to the middle two screws and parallel the bottom two screw which will go to your burner control. the valves are powered closed, so if you lose power they fail safe open.
