Hello All, Last time I looked the only one I found listed for branch lines routing it next to the heads was the Tyco Raychem system. Yes the controller was nice to install and program, You pay the price for that too. The one I installed covers 2 sections of pipe. I put the temp sensor on the smaller pipe and have not had any problems in the 4 years it has been in service.
