We are always looking for ways to save money and reduce electricity consumption. You can install new insulation or upgrade your heating or cooling system for improved energy efficiency, but both are heavy investments. A zone control system is an affordable and highly-effective method that can be easily installed in your home.

A zone control system divides your home into different sections, or zones. Each zone has its own thermostat that monitors the temperature in that zone. Call Anthony if you are interested in a consultation for installing an HVAC zone control system in Kansas City.

Benefits of a Zone Control System

Here are a few reasons a zone control system can be beneficial:

1. Monetary Savings: This relatively inexpensive upgrade can offer significant savings and eventually pay for itself.
2. Energy Efficiency: Why heat or cool the entire house? If you aren’t going to be upstairs all day, there’s no point in spending money and energy on heating or cooling a room that no one is going to use. With a zone control system, you can separate active and inactive spaces.
3. Comfort: In a kitchen with a traditional system, the furnace doesn’t account for the existing heat from a hot stove or oven. It only responds to the central thermostat, which may be located in a cooler area. This can result in unnecessary heating. With a zone control system, you can control where the warmth or coolness is distributed, preventing over-heating in specific areas.
4. Commercial Applications: Zone control systems are handy for commercial use. Debbie might like her office much warmer than Johnny does. Or room 309 may be used primarily for storage, but the conference room needs constant cooling or heating.

Installing a Zone Control System

If you’ve decided a zone control system is a good fit for you, the installation process is simple.

We’ll need to do a few minor upgrades on your air handler and install new thermostat controls in each of the zones in your home. Dampers are added to your ductwork, which will help redirect the airflow to the zones that need it the most.
