Zoning Your Home in the Minneapolis-St. Paul Metro Area
Zoning is the ability to have separate temperature controls in different areas of your home, meaning you can control the heating and cooling for various areas of your home independently rather than setting the temperature for the entire home. The temperatures of each area can be customized to the needs of the home and its residents.
What are the benefits of Zoning?
There are many benefits to zoning your home:
- Indoor air comfort is increased- A lot of the time members of a household may feel comfortable at different temperatures. With a zoned HVAC system everyone can be happy. One family member can set their room at 75 degrees, while the other can set their room to be 70 degrees.
- Increased energy efficiency- Efficiency is gained by not heating and cooling the entire home, which leads to decreased utility bill costs. Zoning systems can decrease energy costs by as much as 30%.
- Flexibility and control is increased- Being able to customize temperatures in different rooms of your home gives you greater control of your comfort.
- Extended HVAC system life- Your HVAC system will receive less wear and tear because it won’t be required to move air throughout the entire home at all times.
