How Is a Zone Heating System Installed?

Many homes have a hard time keeping even heating throughout the winter due to your home’s orientation or other heat gain issue. There may also be disagreement between family members as to what temperature the thermostat should be set, setting the stage for constant battles over your home’s temperature. Installing zone heating in your home can alleviate these problems and more. How do you get zone heating?

The Components

There are three main components in a zone heating system:

• Main control panel
• Motorized dampers
• Zone thermostats

The Process

The first step of installing any zone heating system is to determine what the zones in your home will be; you will do this with the installation technician. Once the zones are designated, the technician will install motorized dampers into the supply ductwork of your home and connect the dampers to the main control panel. The technician will then install a thermostat into each designated zone, and connect each thermostat to the main control panel. Temperatures are set on the zone thermostats, and the control panel opens and closes the dampers as needed to maintain the set temperatures.

Why Install Zone Heating?

There are a number of benefits that can be gained from installing zone heating into your home:

• Customized comfort – because each zone is independently heated, you can customize your heating per zone versus setting one temperature on a single thermostat for your whole home.
• Increased energy efficiency – with a zone control system, you use only the heating you need, which can reduce your overall energy usage.
• Less stress on your system – a zone control system allows you to use less heating, which means your system operates for less time; this can reduce the amount of stress on your system.

A zone heating system can put an end to the battle over the thermostat and also help you customize your heating in a way you just can’t with a single thermostat.
