Finding one temperature that pleases everyone in your home can be challenging!
But if your system is operating from a single thermostat, you’ll find yourself and your family losing that battle every time. If this has ever happened to you, you might consider having a zone control system installed that allows for different temperatures in different areas of the home.
What Is a Zone Control System?
- A zone control system uses a series of motorized dampers to control the flow of air in your supply ducts. The dampers are wired to the main control panel.
- Zones are whatever you would like them to be in your home. You could select individual rooms, a certain wing or a certain floor. As the homeowner, you’ll have flexibility to determine what zones are best for your house.
- Energy efficiency – with a zone control system, you can turn off the cooling to an unused area; the system allows you to cool only what you need, which can save you both energy and money.
- Customized comfort – each zone operates independently, allowing you to set a different temperature without affecting another zone.
- Less wear on your AC – when you use less cooling, your air conditioner runs for less time. This can help reduce the level of wear and tear on your system.
