BTW, for a thermostat, you want an HVAC guy, not an electrician.

I am going to try to upload some photos of the unit and the wiring. I was able to get the heat and hot water working but the upstairs thermostat control does not seem to work. It slides with no resistance, so I don't think it is controlling anything. I am going to ask the guy at the hardware store if he has a compatible replacement. If I can find the right unit, I think I can install it myself.

did you put a meter on it to see if really 110 and not 24?
It's obvious by looking at it. LINE VOLTAGE.

The upside down chart shows 120V and 240V.

This couldn't be more wrong.
Not everything is done to specs or code, and never assume when it comes to electricity.
A meter tells the truth (if you know how to use it)

So, I ended up getting a Lux 5 2 programable line voltage thermostat. Finally got it working.
Thanks to all for all your advice!
Cool beans.
