I have radiator heat in my 80 year old home. The upstairs heats up first while it takes a very long time for the downstairs to warm. The thermostat on the main floor in the living room. I recently installed a new boiler and asked the installer about this but he wasn't very helpful. Can you control this with the valves or change the way the heated water is routed? Thank you.
