Space aliens that is. You think they are your family members, you see them several times a day, they live in your house; BUT, there is something wrong, they like it too WARM or they like it too COLD.
Individuals prefer a rather wide range of room temperatures. Often, this leaves someone wearing extra layers and muttering, and someone else in a tee shirt… muttering. Nobody is happy. Ever experience anything like this at your house?
Hurrah! There are solutions. Yes, everyone can just get along better… at least temperature wise.
Technology provides the answer. It is called Zoned Systems. You can create zones in your home that vary in temperature by the precise amount of heated or cooled air delivered into that space. This allows comfort zones that come closer to pleasing all the resident aliens.
And maybe you are wondering why you are cooling and heating parts of the house when they are not be used? Zone systems allows you to choose how much to heat and cool unoccupied as well as occupied spaces.
Do you like your master bedroom cool at night- say maybe 68 degrees? You certainly are paying more to cool the entire house to 68 degrees.
Maybe your parents live with you. As your years of experience increase, so does your need for warmer temperatures. Mom or Dad might be much more comfortable- say at a nice and cozy 75 degrees. And the kids in the house can have their own comfortable temp somewhere in between.
Zoned Systems can really help bring temperature harmony to a houseful of aliens.
We have addressed hot corners and cool nooks in the house but here we have concentrated on individual temperature tastes. 2 story houses are a particular heating and cooling challenge because warm air rises. This keeps the upstairs and the downstairs residents in conflict because of variations in temperatures. 2 story houses are particularly well adapted to zoned systems.
Might a zoned system make sense for your home? Do you have several aliens in the house? Do you have an upstairs? Are you tired of heating or cooling house spaces you are not in? Feel free to call or email for more information. We would love to hear your thoughts in the comment section below. What can you tell us about aliens you have known?
And remember, your home can be more comfortable AND save you money at the same time. Sounds almost subversive doesn’t it? Sort of like having your cake and eating it too. Until you stop and think about it and then it makes good sense.
Give us a call or email. We would enjoy helping you gather and interpret the data whether a zoned system might make sense for your specific situation.
