A zone valve is actuated by a thermostat and will allow water to pass from the boiler to radiant floor piping or base board radiators or in some cases a hot water storage tank.

How can you manualy open the zone valve for more heat?
If it is already open than you wont get more heat. If you have a normally closed type than there is a valve lever on one side that can be slide over and locked into place.
What is the purpose of a water valve?
A water valve is used to regulate, direct, and control the flow of water. It can open, close, or partially obstruct passageways where water can travel and flow.
What does valve mean?
A valve in the Plumbing sense is a mechanical device to open or close the water flow. It can be a screw operation called a 'Gate Valve' or a simple 1/4 turn handle called a 'Ball Valve' . These are more modern and efficient.
Does it put pressure on the pipe to turn off toilet valve and not the main water for 2 days?
It does not increase the pressure it remains the same as if the valve was open.
How the thickness of transmission lines reduce resistance?
The electrons in a wire travel mostly along the outside of the wire and hence the bigger the circumference the more surface area decreasing the resistance. An analogy is a vat of water with a valve at the bottom. Imagine that the water is a store of electrons creating a potential or voltage. If you only open the valve a little, the water will flow out of the vat slowly and hence the higher the resistance. As you open the valve further there is less resistance and more water can flow.

Will hot water rise up through open zone valves?
Of course, heat rises
What is the difference between open- water zone and deep- water zone?
Possible Answer: The open water zone is beneath the littoral zone and is only as light can reach. The deep water zone is below the open water zone where no light reaches
How does the surface of the open ocean differ from the deep zone?
The open water zone is beneath the littoral zone and is only as light can reach. The deep water zone is below the open water zone where no light reaches
Where does the open-water zone of lake end?

What are Taco Zone Valves used for?
Taco Zone Valves are used to open and close valves, primarily heating valves. An example of a use of a Taco Zone Valve would be on heating devices such as hot water heaters.

Does a leak in radiator valve cause low heat?
Hot water heat is typically a closed system, and the pressure gage is used to determine if the system is full of water. Loss of water in a closed system will create air gaps in the water flow, and the boiler is not capable of heating air. Low water level arriving back to the boiler will trigger the high-temp shut off switch, and the water will not become hot. Add water to the system and check the gage. To add water, open slightly the system drain valve (should be located in a pipe at the top of the system) and fill the system thru the inlet valve with a hose from a faucet until the spray from the open drain valve is solid. Close the drain valve system, and then close the inlet valve. Close the faucet valve and remove the hose.
Is the water line open or closed when the ball valve handle is in line with the pipe?
When the handle is in line with the pipe, the valve is open.
