Lennox International Inc. HVAC Zone Control Air Conditioner User Manual


 
Overview
The Lennox LZP-2 Zone Control System has been
designed to increase comfort in your home. It’s able to do
this because it solves the problem caused by various areas
of the home gaining and losing heat at different rates. Unlike
conventional heating and air conditioning systems, LPZ-2
Zone Control knows, at any given time, which areas (zones)
of your home require conditioned air. With this information,
the Zone Control automatically directs the conditioned air to
the zones that require it. Because of this, you will be
able to increase the comfort level throughout the home.
The components that make up the Zone Control System
are: thermostats, a Control Panel, air control dampers, and
heating and cooling equipment as shown in the illustration
below. The Control Panel is typically located on an inside
wall, most likely near your heating and air conditioning
equipment. The dampers are located inside your air ducts in
such a way that each zone can be independently controlled.
Thermostats, placed in each zone, are directly connected to
the Control Panel.
The above illustration shows a typical two zone control system.
