Struggling to balance comfort and energy costs? An HVAC zoning system lets you control temperatures in different areas of your home, reducing energy waste and keeping everyone comfortable.

What is a Zone Control System?
A zone control system, or HVAC zoning system, divides your home into separate zones, each with its own thermostat for personalized temperature control. This improves comfort by allowing precise adjustments in different areas of the home.
The system uses dampers in the ductwork, a central control panel, and thermostats to regulate airflow. It works with various HVAC systems like furnaces, air conditioners, and heat pumps, helping save energy and reduce utility costs, by only heating or cooling where needed.

Wondering if a zone control system is right for your home? The experts at Total Comfort can help you determine the best solution for your heating and cooling needs.
However, here are a few factors that qualify your home for a zone control system:
- Multiple levels or stories
- A sprawling floor plan that extends beyond the main living area
- Concrete slab foundation
- Large windows
- Finished rooms in the attic, basement, or above the garage
- Spacious open areas
If any of these apply to your home, contact Total Comfort to explore your options for zone control system installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many zones are there in an HVAC system?
A traditional HVAC system typically has up to four zones, and mini-split HVAC systems can have up to eight. A zone board controls the air temperature controls of each zone to allow conditioned or heated air to enter into each zone as preferred.
Can you add zones to an existing HVAC system?
Yes, zoning can be installed on almost any existing or new HVAC system type, including furnaces, heat pumps, or air conditioners. The Total Comfort team is equipped to install zoning for any of these HVAC systems.
How is zoning added to my HVAC system?
Typically, professional technicians will install HVAC dampers or duct dampers into existing ductwork to add zoning to your HVAC system. The moveable dampers regulate airflow in the ducts and redirect it to the specific areas (zones) of your home when needed.
