Nashville Zoned HVAC System

Schedule A Service

Zoned HVAC systems are great solutions for residential properties in need of independent heating and cooling systems.  Traditional HVAC systems - those with one thermostat - pump hot and cold air through every open vent within the premises. With a zoned HVAC system, pre-defined rooms or zones of a home can be heated and cooled independently from the main HVAC system. 

At Moonlight HVAC and Nightscapes, our experienced team of zoned HVAC professionals provides the expertise and know-how to install and implement zoned HVAC systems. Call (615) 662-HVAC today to learn more about zoned HVAC system options in Nashville.

Who are Zoned HVAC Systems For?

Zoned HVAC systems are ideal for a number of Nashville residents. With exceptions for studios and one bedroom apartments, a zoned HVAC system can help reduce energy costs and improve efficiency in multi-family homes with four or more bedrooms.  

Multi-story Homes - Homes with two or more levels are great candidates for zoned HVAC systems. Multi level homes are subject to temperature fluctuations. We know that heat rises, so each story above the ground level - is subject to higher temperatures compared to their lower counterparts.  

Homes with Large Square Footage - Private residences that are larger than 3200+ sq ft frequently face additional challenges to heat and cool specific zones. The average home in Belle Meade exceeds 4200+ square feet. Dual zone HVACs are a great solution for heating and cooling requirements of larger homes.  

In Bellevue, a substantial housing boom occurred between the 1970s and 2000. As homes from this era age over time, insulation breaks down and HVAC systems become less efficient. No stranger to five or more bedroom homes, many properties in Bellevue can and do, benefit from zoned HVAC systems.  

Multi-generational Families (Different Preferences) - Homes with residents ranging from nine weeks to ninety-nine year olds have different personalities and preferences. Zoned HVAC systems are a great solution to meet the demands of multi-generational family homes. 

Can Zoned HVAC Systems Reduce Energy Costs in Nashville?

Zoned HVAC systems can reduce energy costs for homeowners. By reducing the area required for heating and cooling needs, zoned HVAC systems can reduce energy costs substantially. 

Unfortunately, there is no one size fits all rule to how much energy a residential zoned HVAC system can save. Since designated zoned HVAC systems can range from less than a hundred square feet to tens of thousands. The amount of money saved is contingent upon the specifics of the property in question, and the zoned HVAC system(s) in place. The table below outlines some estimates for a 2400 square foot home.

How Can a Zoned HVAC System Help?

Residential properties with hot and cold spots can make it feel like an HVAC system is not performing as intended. This can cause frustration as a property owner or tenant. 

From directional room orientation, poor circulation and exterior infiltration - areas and interior spaces that do not reach the desired temperatures can cause discomfort to the occupants. 

Improved Energy Efficiency 

With a zoned HVAC system, thermostats set for individual zones or rooms can help reduce energy costs by only heating and cooling zones or rooms that are occupied. 

For those that live in large four plus bedroom homes, this can drastically reduce the consumption of energy. Why cool the entire house when only one or two rooms are occupied during night hours? 

Zoned Systems Help Mitigate Thermostat Adjustments 

Some people run hot. Others run cold. One member of a household may like the thermostat set at seventy-eight degrees and another at sixty-eight degrees. If this sounds familiar, a zoned system can be the perfect solution to help minimize conflicts over the ambient house temperature. 

Zoned systems have respective thermostats for each designated zone of the home. This allows different regions to operate independently from one another. Each zone can operate at their own desired temperatures. 

Infiltration & Climate Zones

Infiltration - Infiltration is exterior air that enters a premises through cracks, gaps and leaks. Infiltration results in loss of energy that generally ranges between 25-40% of the heating and cooling generated.  The square footage alone does not account for poor insulation and air leaks. A house with better exchange rates tends to outperform leaky homes and properties prone to infiltration. Homes that suffer from high rates of infiltration likely require upgrading insulation to move from a high-cost to a low-cost tier. 

Climate Zones - Nashville is a Climate Zone 4A. These climate zones are prone to temperate extremes that require high seasonal usage. The highest seasonal demand for energy occurs in the most extreme weeks of winter and summer.  This mixed-humid climate zone means Nashville residents require more from their HVAC systems than most Americans.
