HVAC zoning optimizes your existing HVAC equipment to give you better comfort and lower energy bills. This is accomplished by first dividing your home into zones. These zones could be as simple as “upstairs and downstairs” or a complex division of sleeping, living/dining and storage spaces. Your Custom HVAC technician will evaluate your home’s cooling needs and help you assign zones to maximize your home comfort and energy efficiency.

After assigning zones, a system of dampers is installed in the ducts at your HVAC unit. These dampers control the flow of air to their corresponding zones, thus controlling the temperature in those areas of the house.

You can set each zone to the same temperature to get even heating and cooling throughout your home or set custom temperatures so the colder-natured members of your family can coexist peacefully with the hotter-natured family members. Each zone will have its own thermostat that controls the dampers for that zone.
