What is Zone Heating
If you live in a climate with cold winters, you know how expensive it can be to keep your whole home toasty and warm. You also know that simply choosing to turn off the heat is not an option unless you want your fingers and toes to turn blue. Luckily, there is a way to keep yourself and your family comfortable and cozy without spending a fortune on your utilities. It is called zone heating.
 
 
Zone heating is a term that refers to the practice of keeping the most commonly occupied places in your home warm while turning the thermostat down and letting the unused spaces remain cool. Zone heating can be accomplished by installing a fireplace or woodstove in the place your family is most likely to spend a lot of time, such as a living room or family room.
 
 
Zone heating is the most cost effective way to keep yourself and your family warm all through the winter. With traditional methods of heating a home, like forced air heating, you cannot pick and choose specific areas of the house to focus in which to focus the heat. As a result, you are forced to spend the money needed to keep every room in the house warm, even if you really only need one or two rooms to be well heated most of the time.
 
 
If you install a fireplace or woodstove in your home’s most commonly used area, you will soon experience the many benefits of zone heating. You will no longer need to spend an excessive amount on your heating bill. Rather than paying enough to keep your entire house at the optimal temperature, you can rely on your chosen method of zone heating to keep you comfortable while allowing the rest of your home to remain a little bit cooler.
