What Are the Advantages of a Zoning System?

It’s not odd for homeowners to like different areas of their homes to be cooler or warmer throughout the day. Perhaps you have young children and you want to keep their rooms warmer in the winter, or maybe you have a seldom used room that you want to keep cooler or warmer.

Let us introduce you to zoning systems. Zoning systems are a great way to increase your home comfort and maybe lower your energy bills.

A zoning system divides your house into multiple zones, which means you can adapt the temperature for those different zones for increased comfort. An HVAC zoning system uses motorized dampers in the ductwork to control and guide air to those zones to achieve better home comfort.

Who should contemplate a zoning system? It’s an ideal solution if you have several people with different temperature preferences. Homes that have multiple stories or more spacious floorplans will also benefit from zoning systems, because it may be more difficult to control the airflow and temps in larger homes.

You can also take a look at the available technology that lets you adjust these zones from your phone, tablet or computer—in addition to your thermostat. If you are away on vacation or the temperatures took a turn after you left, you can adjust it even if you aren’t at home!
