Increase Your Comfort With HVAC Zoning

If your home has hot and cold spots, you could benefit from an HVAC zoning system. Many homeowners complain that their house is too hot upstairs during the summer, or that if they run the air conditioning to cool their living room it makes the basement feel like a giant refrigerator.

Forced air HVAC systems with limited or no zoning control run at the same level of power in each room, so when you try to cool that room that’s facing the sun you also waste energy cooling other rooms that don’t need it.

Investing in an HVAC zoning system installation gives you control over each room’s temperature, offering:

Fine-grained climate control for each room

Lower energy consumption as you only heat/cool rooms that need it

Save time compared to walking around opening and closing vents

Use sensors to control the temperature throughout the house

Our skilled technicians can advise on the most effective and reliable HVAC zoning system installation for your household, based on the size and layout of the property.

We’ll assess your hot and cold spots, the usage of each room, and the type of air conditioning you already have, and suggest ways to improve the zoning of your system.

Hey there, folks! Welcome back to another plumbing tip from your friendly neighborhood plumbing experts at Golden Rule Plumbing, where we're all about providing you with plumbing peace of mind. Today, we're diving into a common question that many homeowners like yourself might have.

So, picture this: You're ready for a nice, warm shower after a long day, but when you turn on the tap, you're left waiting for that hot water to kick in. Sound familiar? Don't worry, you're not alone! But let's break it down.

Here's the deal: Tankless water heaters are pretty cool because they heat water on the spot, which means no more bulky tanks taking up space in your home. But here's the catch: It takes a moment for that water to get nice and toasty as it zips through the heater's pipes and doodads.

Now, let's talk about why your tankless buddy might be dragging its feet. Ever notice that the farther your water heater is from your shower, the longer it takes for the hot water to reach you? Yep, that's one reason. And if your heater is struggling to keep up with your household's demands, that can also slow things down.

But fear not, my friends! There are ways to speed up the process and get that hot water flowing again. First, give your water heater some TLC with an annual check-up from Golden Rule Plumbing. We'll flush out any buildup and keep your heater running smoothly.

Next, ensure your home's water heater is the right size. If it's feeling overwhelmed, it might be time for an upgrade. And finally, don't forget to insulate those pipes to keep the heat where it belongs—coming out of your faucet!

And there you have it, folks! With a little know-how and some help from your pals at Golden Rule Plumbing, you can say goodbye to those long waits for hot water. Because hey, we're homeowners too, and we get it. So, if you ever need a hand—or a wrench—don't hesitate to call us. Until next time, stay cozy and keep those faucets flowing!

Why Your Home Feels So Cold: Understanding Negative Air Pressure

Hey there! Ever feel like your house is playing a never-ending game of freeze tag, with you as the unwilling participant? If so, you're not alone. Picture this: it's a frosty winter day in Central Iowa, and despite cranking up the heat, your home still feels like an igloo. Sounds familiar? Well, hang tight because we're about to unravel the mystery behind your chilly abode and teach you how to turn up the heat for good.

The Cold Hard Truth about Negative Air Pressure

So, what's the deal with negative air pressure? Think of it like this: your house is a giant balloon, and the air inside is trying to escape through every nook and cranny. When the pressure inside is lower than outside, chilly air seeps in through gaps in windows, doors, and even your trusty HVAC system, leaving you shivering in your living room.

Is Negative Pressure Bad News?

Absolutely! While a little pressure difference is normal, too much can turn your cozy home into a winter wonderland—for all the wrong reasons. Not only does it make you reach for that extra sweater, but it also sends your energy bills skyrocketing faster than a snowball down a hill. Plus, it creates the perfect hideout for dust bunnies and other unwanted guests, impacting indoor air quality.

Striking the Right Balance

Now, should your home be Team Positive or Team Negative when it comes to air pressure? Well, ideally, we're aiming for positive vibes here. Slightly positive air pressure keeps those pesky drafts at bay, ensures your home stays warmer, and keeps the air inside fresh as a daisy. It's like giving your home a warm hug on a chilly day.

Blame It on the HVAC

You know how they say, "It takes two to tango?" Well, negative air pressure and HVAC systems are like dance partners with two left feet. If your heating and cooling system is not in tip-top shape, it can inadvertently contribute to negative pressure. Leaky ducts, improper sizing, and ventilation woes can all throw your home's air pressure off balance faster than you can say the Golden Rule.

Cracking the AC Code

Negative pressure can be a real buzzkill when it comes to air conditioning. Picture this: Your return air ducts are like hungry monsters, gobbling up more air than your supply vents can dish out. The result? Reduced airflow, uneven cooling, and a home that feels more like a freezer aisle than a cozy retreat. Not exactly what you signed up for, right?

Wrapping It Up: From Chilly to Cozy in No Time

So, there you have it—your crash course in negative air pressure and why your home feels like an icebox. But fear not, dear homeowner! With some know-how and a helping hand from Golden Rule, you can bid farewell to those frosty woes and cozy up your home like a pro. Say goodbye to shivers and hello to warmth—all it takes is a bit of positive pressure and a whole lot of Golden Rule magic.

Ready to turn up the heat? Reach out to Golden Rule Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical today, and let's make your home the cozy sanctuary you deserve—after all, life's too short to live in a freezer.
