Your heating and cooling system can come in a few different forms. Some homes have a central HVAC where one system controls the temperature of the entire building. Others use zoned units, also known as mini splits, for greater control and cost-savings. If you are unfamiliar with the idea of a zoned solution, here’s what you should know about the device.

A Guide to Zoned Heating & Cooling

How Does It Work?

The system is split into multiple units placed in different rooms, often by installing them into the wall. They are small and do not take up much room. Each system provides heating and cooling to a single zone or area. For example, the master bedroom, child’s bedroom, and living room can all have their own units.

What Are the Benefits?

The biggest advantage of zoned heating and cooling is the cost-efficiency. Because you can control the temperature of each area, you can pick and choose which rooms receive the most attention. If you have an office that is rarely used, for instance, you can keep the air conditioning low or turn it off while keeping occupied rooms warm and comfortable. This targeted solution uses less energy, reducing your utility bills.

Who Is the Perfect Candidate?

You may be wondering if your home is a good candidate for a zoned system. While any style building can benefit from this HVAC solution, some structures will see more energy-saving benefits. These include homes or businesses with high ceilings and multiple oversized windows or a multi-story home. Likewise, if you have a loft, sunroom, or above-garage room, you'll also notice lower energy bills.
