Definition
A system providing conditioned air similar to a single-zone system. The temperature and flow of the air supplying each zone are controlled separately. A constant supply of air is supplied to the various zones.
Purpose
Multi-zone air handling systems provide customized climate control for different areas or zones within a building. Each zone can have its temperature and airflow settings, improving comfort and energy efficiency.
Examples of Use
- Office buildings: Controlling the temperature and airflow for different offices, conference rooms, and common areas.
- Hospitals: Providing precise climate control for patient rooms, operating theaters, and administrative areas.
- Educational facilities: Adjusting the temperature and airflow in classrooms, auditoriums, and laboratories to meet varying needs.
Related Terms
