Rick,
Your Hurricane heating system only has one circulation pump for all four heating zones, and all heat exchangers receive heated coolant if any zone calls for heat, but the fans run only at the heat exchanger that calls for heat. If your basement thermostat is adjustable, it has been replaced because the original basement thermostat was a fixed 40 degree snap disc thermostat. Therefore, the interior thermostats have no control over your basement heating system, but the Hurricane has to be on before it will work.
David,
Your AquaHot system works just like the Hurricane system that I explained above except your system has four circulation pumps. Therefore, it only circulates heated coolant to the heat exchanger that calls for heat.
