If you’re considering updating your current HVAC system, you may want to consider adding a zoning function. HVAC zoning is a way to control the temperature of each room in your house individually. It has many benefits and can even save you money in the long run. Here’s what you should know.

Why Install an HVAC Zoning System?

1. Energy Cost Savings

With a traditional HVAC system, you’re heating or cooling all the rooms in your house—even the ones you don’t use. HVAC zoning systems use  dampers in the ducts that allow you to select which rooms are being heated or cooled at any given time. This means you only pay the energy costs for rooms being used. As a result, a zoning system could significantly reduce your energy bill.

2. A Longer Lasting Unit

When you have a zoning system, your HVAC is only working to heat or cool certain rooms. This takes unnecessary stress off the system, reducing the amount of wear and tear, and resulting in a longer lifespan for your heater.

3. Custom Temperature Control

Do you and your family members argue about what temperature the house should be? With a zoning system, each family member can choose a custom temperature for their bedroom. This not only eliminates fights, but also keeps everyone comfortable.

4. Better Air Quality

Since an HVAC zoning system works in zones, not as much air is traveling around the house. This can prevent dust and dander from spreading and results in better indoor air quality. If you or any of your family members have asthma or respiratory problems, HVAC zoning may help combat them.
