When you have a multi-room house, keeping it consistently warm can be a challenge, especially if you have a central heating system. Cold spots are common, and with the winter cold, this might make optimal comfort a challenge for you and your family. Thankfully, central heating isn’t your only option. You can also install zoned HVAC systems. Below, learn why this system is a beneficial and cost-saving solution.

Why You Should Have a Zoned HVAC System

1. Improve Air Quality

Since zoned HVAC systems don’t rely on ducts to move the heat, they’re less likely to spread pollen, pet dander, and other allergens throughout the house. If you or someone in your family suffers from allergies or respiratory issues, switching to these kinds of systems could alleviate the symptoms. You’ll still need to keep the filters fresh and clean, but this set up helps restrict the spread of these particulates. 

2. Customize Comfort

As its name suggests, this type of HVAC system allows people to establish different temperature zones within their house. If someone is in the living room and another in a bedroom on the second floor, they can each have their own temperature setting without disrupting the other person. If anyone in the house is more sensitive to cold or heat, zones will keep them comfortable all through the year.

If you were to go on vacation, you could leave your pet’s favorite room temperature controlled while keeping the rest of the house at a different temperature to save on HVAC costs. 

3. Save Money 

If you’re trying to reduce your utility bills and have already taken steps like improving the insulation or installing new weatherproofing, upgrading to a zoned system is the next best course of action. By creating separately controlled zones, you won’t have to worry about heating up empty rooms and the costs that come with it. It’s perfect for those who have guest rooms or a den that’s primarily vacant for most of the year.
