Many HVAC systems in San Francisco Bay Area homes are programmed with zones. Many homeowners, however often find their zoned systems to be problematic. Why?
Zoning residential HVAC systems using a single furnace and air conditioning unit is one of the more complicated mechanical engineering problems faced by HVAC contractors. At BPP, we have yet to see a zoned system in an existing home that entirely complies with the manufacturer’s installation requirements.
Traditionally, zoned heating and cooling systems experience problems that can affect the HVAC performance and, ultimately, your family’s comfort. Some of the problems include:
We love technology!
The Carrier Infinity Zoning System solves so many of the traditional challenges homeowners have with zoning. The Infinity components adjust to different zoning conditions using sophisticated algorithms. The variable-speed ECM motor, for example, can reduce speed to respond to reduced heating or cooling zone requests. The variable speed condenser also can reduce cooling capacity as needed.
Carrier’s Infinity Systems have smart sensors and good diagnostics. The systems are sized using CFM room requirements, which is calculated using the volume of the rooms and the ventilation.
When designing these systems, we make sure that your home has adequate fan flow to make the system work properly. Simply put, if your home would benefit from a zoned HVAC system, consider a Carrier Infinity system that BPP can properly design, install and commission. We know you’ll like the improved comfort and energy efficiency!
