Customize Your Home Comfort
Zone control systems let you fix temperature imbalances in your home. You may have rooms that get more sunlight than others or live in a two or three story home. With a zone control system, you can enjoy
- Better comfort
- Greater energy efficiency
- Cleaner, healthier air
Instead of treating the entire building as a single unit, a zone control system divides the building into separate zones, each with its own thermostat and dampers. This allows homeowners to set different temperatures and airflow for different areas of the home.

What are the Advantages of a Zone Control System?
Better Comfort
With one of Capital’s zone control systems, you can set different temperatures for each zone in your home, like keeping your bedrooms cooler for better sleep while having a warmer living room when you want to relax and watch a movie or entertain guests
Greater Energy Efficiency
Zone control systems can be more energy-efficient than traditional HVAC systems because they only heat or cool specific areas of the home that need it, rather than the entire home. This means you can save money on energy bills by not having to heat or cool unoccupied or rarely used rooms.
Cleaner, Healthier Air
You can reduce airflow into areas with high humidity or pollutants like the kitchen or bathroom, while increasing airflow in rooms that need more ventilation, like the living room.
Longer Equipment Lifespan
Because a zone control system only operates when needed, the equipment can last longer than traditional HVAC systems that operate continuously. This can save homeowners money on maintenance and repair costs over time.
How Do Zone Control Systems Work
A zone control system typically consists of several components, including:
- Thermostats: Each zone has its own thermostat, which allows you to set the temperature for that specific zone.
- Dampers: Dampers are valves installed in the ductwork that control the flow of air to each zone. They open or close based on your temperature settings in each zone.
- Control panel: The control panel is the central hub of the zone control system. It receives signals from the thermostats and dampers and sends commands to the HVAC system to adjust temperature and airflow.
- HVAC system: The HVAC system is the heating and cooling equipment that provides conditioned air to the different zones of your home. It can be a traditional furnace and air conditioner or a heat pump system.
- Wiring and sensors: The wiring and sensors connect the various components of the zone control system and allow them to communicate with each other.
The components of a zone control system are usually installed in a mechanical room or closet, out of sight from your main living areas. The thermostats and dampers may be visible in each zone, but they are typically installed discreetly and do not take up much space. Overall, the zone control system is designed to be unobtrusive and blend in with the rest of your home’s design.
