If you and those you share your home with have been fighting over settings for your home’s single thermostat, the problem may not be different temperature preferences. It may be inconsistent temperatures throughout your home. If the living areas are comfortable but the bedrooms are too warm, for example, consider zoning systems.
Why You Should Choose a Zoning System
Many factors can cause certain parts of your home to be warmer or cooler than others. Rooms with ample sunlight, for example, may be warmer than those with few windows. Rooms on upper levels, where heat rises, will to be warmer than rooms on lower levels. Your finished basement, entirely or partially underground, likely will be chilly and damp while the rest of the house is cozy warm. Zoning systems solve these problems.
Zoning systems use a system of dampers to regulate the heating into various zones in your home. Using separate thermostats for each zone, this system allows the rooms to be heated and cooled as needed, rather than heating and cooling them all at the same time. This eliminates hot and cold spots and wasted energy in the home.
Benefits of a Zoning System
A zoning system provides several benefits:
- Improved comfort throughout the home
- Ability to heat and cool rooms when they are being used
- Saving energy by not heating or cooling unused or seldom-used rooms
- Customize temperature settings in each room
By installing a zoning system, you can keep your entire home comfortable all day long. If you are looking for experienced help installing a zoning system in your McKinney or Allen home, please contact us at Bill Joplin’s Air Conditioning & Heating, your area HVAC and home comfort professionals.
