Zoned HVAC Systems: Can They Truly Save You Money?
Mark J. Biel • May 4, 2022
Many homeowners speak highly of zoned HVAC systems due to their many benefits. But is increased savings actually one of them? A premier new heating system installation company in the area, R.A. Biel Plumbing & Heating, offers a quick answer here.
Yes, They Can Help You Save Money
Owning a large home sometimes gives you more space than you know what to do with. While most homeowners see this as a win, making sure that all those rooms remain thermally comfortable can be challenging. This is where a zoned HVAC system comes into play. It works to split the rooms you don’t use often and those you do into zones that can be heated or cooled separately from each other. This means you can fine-tune the level of indoor comfort in each particular zone, which in turn helps keep energy costs down. Moreover, a zoned HVAC system also:
- Allows you to use smaller equipment. Because each zone is smaller than your home as a whole, these areas can utilize smaller but more efficient HVAC equipment. And even if these smaller HVAC units run simultaneously, you’re still able to use less energy (and save more money) since it’s likely that you’ll be running at least one of them irregularly. Keep in mind, however, that the size of the HVAC equipment is calculated based on the size of the space to be conditioned. To ensure that you pick a model that’s just the right size, consult a new air conditioning expert like R.A. Biel Plumbing & Heating.
- Provides more direct cooling and heating. It’s not always possible to cool or heat an entire house evenly. But with a zoned HVAC system, you can definitely do it. Conditioned air is smoothly distributed directly into these zones, allowing them to reach the desired temperature quickly. Because of this, your HVAC equipment won’t have to work overtime, which reduces the potential for breakdowns and the associated costs.
