The second floor of your Metro Knoxville, TN home overheats in the summer, while the downstairs gets too cold from trying to compensate. You want one temperature, your spouse prefers another, and your kids say it’s too hot. A zone control system solves these problems.
A zone control system—or zoning—is the perfect solution for larger homes with multiple floors or sprawling layouts. With zoning, you create different temperature zones under the same roof, reducing your energy use and lowering utility bills. Homes with concrete slab foundations, large windows, high ceilings, or finished rooms in the attic or basement are good candidates for a zone control system. Our certified, knowledgeable professionals at Central City can install a zone control system that enables you to control temperatures in different areas of your East Tennessee home simultaneously with just the touch of a button.
How Does Zoning Work
You decide the location and size of each zone with guidance from our professionals. You can define a zone as a room, several rooms, or even an entire floor in your multi-story home. Whatever you decide, our team at Central City will help you achieve the ultimate comfort in your home that comes with a zone control system. Controlling the temperature in each zone means you will save energy, reduce your utility bills, and keep everyone in the family happy. Say goodbye to hot and cold spots throughout your home. Say hello to a new level of comfort.
Zone Control Installation
Our heating and cooling specialists install dampers in your ductwork and mount a control panel near your furnace, with thermostats in each zone. For example, your second floor can be one zone, the downstairs a second, and the master bedroom a third.
When you adjust a thermostat, the control panel opens or closes the dampers to deliver hot or cold air where it’s needed. Set your desired temperatures for each zone—and relax. You can even control the thermostats from your smartphone or tablet!
Simply opening and closing registers doesn’t create a true zone system. It won’t reduce the load on your furnace or air conditioner and can lead to leaky ducts and poor airflow.
A zone control system, however, not only redistributes airflow through the dampers but also communicates with your HVAC system, telling it when to run and when to shut down—eliminating unnecessary energy costs.
Can I still create a zone control system if my home has no ductwork?
Yes! Ductless mini-split systems allow you to set up multiple air handlers throughout your home. Each air handler acts as a zone, complete with a thermostat. Anyone living in a large home with more than one floor will benefit from zoning.
