Zoning
Zoning is an HVAC method that divides a building, such as a home, into separate areas or “zones,” each controlled independently by its own thermostat or control system. This allows you to customize the heating, cooling, or ventilation settings based on the specific needs or usage of each zone. For example, you can keep frequently used areas like the living room at one temperature while setting unused bedrooms at a different temperature, improving energy efficiency and comfort. A zoning system typically uses dampers within the ductwork to direct airflow to the desired zones.
