HVAC Zoning – Control Your Comfort

 

As you walk through your home you notice a few things going from room to room. When you enter the living room from the kitchen it may seem noticeably cooler or even warmer than the room you were just in. Maybe your upstairs rooms are not as comfortable in the evening as the downstairs areas are. This is because your typical HVAC system has one thermostat to run everything. It tries it’s best to keep everyone comfortable but with the home size, materials, location, and the outdoor influences, it just can’t.

At Anderson Air Corps, we suggest HVAC zoning for your home to help you get the most out of your current system. Take a look at what zoning is and what it can do for your heating and cooling system.

What is HVAC Zoning?

A zoning system for your HVAC allows you to set different temperatures for different parts of the home. That means if you only use one area of your home at night, like the bedrooms, you can have them cooled down without doing it to the rest of the home that no one is in. This gives you a choice on how cool you keep the living room or the family room while you’re using it during the day. HVAC zoning truly makes it easy to keep your home how you like it.

Benefits of HVAC Zoning

The first benefit of HVAC zoning is the overall comfort levels of your entire family. This allows you to control the temperatures in the different areas of your home. If someone likes their room warmer at night, it’s able to do that and still keep your other family members cool. If you prefer the living room to be at a lower temperature than the kitchen, it allows you to do that as well. It gives you the control over your family’s comfort and relaxation.

HVAC Zoning also benefits you as it reduces your energy consumption. When your system is not working hard to cool the entire home at once, it does not take as much energy to do the sections you have zoned. When you have a zoning system on your home, it can actually reduce your monthly power bills by up to 30% in some cases. That means more money in your pocket.

Another amazing benefit of this system is that you can actually extend the life of your HVAC system. As it only works on some parts of the home at a time, it’s not wearing out by having to try and maintain the same temperature for each room at all times. HVAC Zoning actually reduces the wear and tear on your system so it gives you a longer life span.

Lastly, as every zoned room has a thermostat in it to regulate temperature, you have the ultimate control over the comfort in your home. Each room can be set to its own personal settings to accommodate the whole family. Adjusting the setting is easy to do and with a thermostat in each zone, it takes just a few seconds to get it where you prefer it to be.

HVAC zoning is most beneficial to those with multiple level homes, homes with large windows in rooms, or even those with a lot of rooms that aren’t used. If you have several family members this is helpful too so that you can match everyone’s temperature preferences. If your home has a finished basement in it as well, this could truly benefit you.
