HVAC Zoning Systems in Manteca, CA

WHAT IS AN HVAC ZONING SYSTEM?

An HVAC zoning system is a heating and cooling system that uses dampers in the ductwork to regulate and redirect air to specific areas of a home. A zoned HVAC allows the ability to create customized temperature zones throughout the home for increased comfort and efficiency.

An HVAC zoning system uses one thermostat to control both heating and cooling for an entire home. Once you set the thermostat to either heat or cool there is not a way to control the temperature in each room, unless you manually close off the outlet to each room. However, closing each register manually is not only time-consuming but restricts airflow and can lead to early HVAC damage. On the other hand, an HVAC Zoning system consists of 2 or more thermostats placed in different areas of the home and an electronic monitor. This electronic monitor then activates dampers installed in the ductwork to move conditioned air to areas where they are needed the most. The electronic monitor can also be used with wireless thermostats or from a cellphone app. 

HVAC zoning is a simple affordable way to gain more control of your current HVAC system without having an additional system for heating and cooling. The automatic dampers controlled by the electronic monitor allow you to individually control the temperature in separate areas of your home. A zoned HVAC system works best for multi-story homes or when you have rooms or living areas that are hardly used. By creating zones for your home, you can reduce wasted energy from overheating or over-cooling areas, not in use and prevent uneven comfort. Furthermore, a zoning system can accommodate any special needs certain areas of the home may have such as construction, windows, or sun exposure. Essentially, zoning systems limit unnecessary over-use of the heating and cooling system which leads to improved energy efficiency and better comfort control. This reduces stress on the HVAC system helping the units work optimally and efficiently, while also preventing costly breakdowns.
