ABSTRACT:
A zone valve of the type using a heat motor includes a biasing spring that operates on a lever, the lever operating on a valve. The spring includes arms that slidingly engage the lever.

By providing the bent portion on each arm, the effective biasing force produced on the lever is decreased when the lever is in a raised position.
