Ironically, some of today's most popular
construction features -- vaulted ceilings, lofts, expansive glass
windows -- can present the biggest challenge to evenly distributing
heated or cooled air. Often homes are built with one thermostat to
regulate temperature in rooms all over the house.
The Aprilaire Zone Control System offers a way
to divide your home into as many as three heating and cooling zones,
so you are always comfortable. A control panel, using a
sophisticated microprocessor, adjusts the flow of air to three areas
through automatic dampers located in the heating and air
conditioning ducts. The result? The right amount of conditioned air
sent to the right part of your home at just the right time.
While you’ll notice the additional
comfort of custom-set thermostats, you’ll also save money. When you
zone your home, your heating and cooling system uses less energy. In
fact, Aprilaire can save you up to 20% on your energy bills when
used with a thermostat setback strategy. It also increases a home’s
resale value.

your home has: |

- More than one level.

- Furnished rooms in the basement or attic.
