A look at why zone heating is one of the best ways to keep your home comfortable all year-round.
If your family is prone to arguing over your thermostat settings, now is a great time to rejoice because zone heating will save the day! A HVAC zoning system is popular as a temperature distribution method because it ensures your family stay as warm—or cool—as you like. Zone heating allows you to control the temperature of each room or “zone” in your home.
How Does It Work?
Within a HVAC zoning system, heating zones represent different areas of your home. Each area is controlled by a thermostat—rather than one thermostat set for the entire house. You can define zones by the rooms you use most frequently or how the climate or temperatures outside impact your home inside. Most homeowners opt for two or more heating zones
What About Two- or Three-Story Houses?
Zone heating is the perfect solution for multi-level homes. If your upstairs tends to be muggy or hot in the summer months, and your downstairs feels cold when fall arrives, two-zone heating will help you balance the temperature for comfort throughout your house.
How Do We Cool and Heat for Everyone?
Systems with three-zones or more are ideal for families who prefer to control the temperature of individual rooms. A zone heating system will support every member of your family—making them feel comfortable in whatever room they are in. Plus, comfortable temperatures promote better sleep and rest—a positive for everyone.
When Should We Install a Zone Heating System?
Anytime is the right time to ensure comfort for your family. Zoned heating uses electronically controlled dampers and thermostats to manage the temperature of each room or zone. Your thermostat will be able to manage how much hot or cool air enters each zone. Call Schneider Heating and Air Conditioning to learn more about investing in a reliable HVAC zoning system.
