How Does Commercial HVAC System Zoning Work?
Zoning your commercial HVAC system enables you to designate specific “zones” within your building that can be controlled by separate thermostats. Instead of relying on a single thermostat to heat your entire building, you’ll choose which zones to heat and when. This helps you save money on heating or cooling spaces that aren’t used as frequently. Here are some of the major benefits you can expect with a commercial HVAC system zoning upgrade:
Increased Comfort for Building Staff and Occupants
No matter the size of your commercial building, it can be challenging to make sure it’s comfortable for everyone. While you can’t accommodate every person’s individual temperature preferences, you can customize specific areas to help. For example, you might want to keep a conference room warmer or a utility room cooler.
Extended System Lifespan
By using your commercial HVAC system less, you’re putting less strain on it, leading to a longer system lifespan. And because your unit is running at a lower capacity, its parts won’t wear down as quickly. This means fewer repairs and unexpected breakdowns.
Lower Energy Costs and Higher Efficiency
Utilities like heating and cooling are often your biggest expenses as a commercial property owner. And the bigger your building, the greater chance you’re paying to heat or cool unused spaces. These costs can really add up over the course of a year. By installing zoning, you’ll have increased control over your bills and increase energy efficiency, too.
Easy Integration With Smart Technology
If your commercial building is equipped with programmable or smart thermostats, you’ll find it’s even easier to maintain temperature control. Zoning systems easily integrate with these thermostats, keeping you in control of building temperature regardless of the time or your location.
Higher Property Value
Any time you make an upgrade to your commercial building, you’re increasing its value in the process. Efficient and well-maintained HVAC systems are an attractive feature for any buyer.
