To paraphrase an old saying, inside every house, there's a healthy, comfortable house waiting to come out. If you've ever visited our website, you've seen the little icon of what we call a "Happy House" with a big smile on its face. We've devoted over a half century trying to make "happy houses" and this final installment (6) concludes another effort in that direction. Parts 1-5, established the fact that "where you live" is usually a matter of economics while "how you live" is determined primarily from recognizing the significance of, and the choices one makes from information and knowledge available. Nowhere is this more obvious than inside your home. We further promised to examine in detail, the 6 basic components that are required to live in a Controlled Comfort Environment. Parts 2, 3, 4 & 5 dealt specifically with adding heat (heating), removing heat (cooling), controlling moisture (humidity) and air quality inside your home. Part (6) examines the control of the air in your home. Before the event of electricity (which gave us among other things cheap, convenient lighting) people used small lamps to light their houses and would carry them from room to room as needed. Now we have a variety of lights in different rooms, each controlled with its own switch to be turned on as needed. Besides being convenient, we don't need to waste electricity lighting the whole house at one time. Zoning your HVAC system can perform similar wonders in that you no longer have to heat or cool the whole house at the same time. Nor do you need to be inconvenienced with some rooms that are too hot (or too cold) nor is it necessary to pay for heating or cooling rooms you rarely use or need. Now you can easily and economically divide your house into sleeping areas, living areas, playroom area, office use, guest areas or any other configuration. Each
zone, combined with its own programmable
thermostat, can satisfy any life style or comfort needs with
precise control, heating or cooling specific
areas at specific times to specific
temperatures. No more heating or cooling the whole
house when you're just using 2 or 3 rooms…in 2 story
houses, no more hot bedrooms in summer or cold activity rooms
in the winter…no more paying for heating and cooling
when you are away from home whether it is for 4 hours or
4 weeks. P.S. Remember, if you have any questions about the HVAC system in your house; how we can be of better service to you, or about our web site, please email them to me. I’d like to hear from you. Our newest web page "53 Ways To Save Energy" has just been posted. You are especially invited to visit it by clicking here. Renovation
of our entire website has recently been completed. The
new website still retains some of the features of the old one
but every one of the over 200 pages (all of them designed to
improve the indoor comfort of your home) are now much easier
to navigate plus new pages are constantly being added. Two things
remain unchanged. The website address: www.climatemakers.com and
our desire to provide you with the finest quality HVAC service
and support at the most affordable prices possible. |
