My house is over three thousand square feet.
There are rooms we use strictly for storage and others, like the dining room, that we use only on occasion.
Certain rooms tend to feel extra chilly or overheated because of the number of windows and location. The bedrooms are located on the second story and are always a bit warmer than the rest of the house. When we first moved in, there was a single thermostat located in the living room. The temperature in that particular room was always perfectly comfortable. There was no way to target any of the other areas without affecting the entire house. We were wasting a lot of energy and money maintaining empty rooms at an ideal temperature. Plus, any time we wanted to make an adjustment, we needed to walk to the thermostat and manually change the temperature. I finally decided it was worth the expense to upgrade to zone control. The energy savings are helping to recover the cost very quickly. The house is now far more comfortable, and there’s less wear and tear on the furnace and air conditioner. I like the convenience of having a series of smart thermostats that are accessible through an app on my phone. No matter where I happen to be, I can easily cater the temperature setting in specific rooms to requirements. I have set up programs that avoid heating or cooling the bedrooms until we’re headed to bed at night. Family members are able to customize the temperature in their room to personal preference. Implementing zone control is one of the most advantageous home improvements I’ve made.
