Comfort, Control, Common Sense.
Control heating and cooling comfort where you want it,
when you want it. With a Honeywell Zoning System, you
won’t heat empty rooms or over-cool one area in order to be
comfortable in another. Zoning makes it possible for everyone
to be comfortable.
You don't have to
buy a new heating and cooling system for every room. A
Honeywell Zoning System uses dampers in your ductwork that open
and close as needed based on each zone's thermostat settings.
When a zone is at the selected temperature, and doesn't need to
be heated or cooled, the dampers close to save energy and
maximize comfort elsewhere. Think of it as controlling your
heating and cooling the same way you control your lights - a
thermostat controls each zone to the temperature you choose.
Would a Temperature Zoning System benefit your home?
Do temperatures in your home vary widely between rooms and
levels? Does constant fiddling with the thermostat and registers
produce more frustration than comfort? Consider installing a
Temperature Zoning System.
By offering
individualized temperature control for different areas of your
home, zoning eliminates the “too hot up, too cold down”
homeowners often experience during air-conditioning season.
In
fact, zoning can help you achieve comfort in all areas of your
home, in any season. And it can save you energy and money, when
used with programmable thermostats that automatically switch
between comfort and energy-saving temperatures.
Imagine
controlling all the lights in your home from a single switch.
Silly, right?
Now imagine
controlling the temperature of each room with a single
thermostat. Fact is, it’s nearly as impractical as the
light-switch analogy.
Especially if your home has:
- Multiple
levels
- Sprawling
design (wings or “ranch” style)
- Lots of
square footage and windows
- Large open
areas (vaulted ceilings, foyer, atrium, sunroom, etc.)
New Homes
If you’re in the process of planning and building a new
home, there’s no better time to install a Temperature Zoning
Systems. Here's why:
- The key
elements of zoning — thermostats, damper controls and a
control panel — integrate easily into today’s central
heating and cooling systems.
- It’s most
labor- and cost-efficient to install zoning before ductwork
is covered over by walls and ceilings.
- You could
save money on utility bills, which will make living in your
new home more affordable.
- Your new
home will be better equipped to provide the consistent
comfort and temperatures you expect.
Ask your builder to
include a zoning system in your home blueprint and budget.
You’ll take greater comfort tomorrow having made a wise choice
today.
Existing Homes
The comfort and energy savings offered by zoning are
available to owners of existing homes as well. Zoning can solve
the problem of rooms being too hot or too cold.
Even if much of your home’s ductwork is covered by walls and
ceilings, odds are a qualified contractor can install a
comfort-enhancing zoning system at an affordable price. Here's
why:
- Today’s best
zoning systems offer an array of controller and damper
options, giving contractors flexibility to install a
solution that fits each home.
- Installation
needn't disrupt your entire house — much of the work is
confined to your home’s “mechanical room,” attic or crawl
space.
- With the
energy savings made possible by programmable thermostats, a
zoning system can, over time, pay for itself.
