Forced air systems heat mostly the air and pressurize a room. most of the hot air rises and leaves floors and surfaces cold, This is why most people are uncomfortable with forced air systems. EASY; there are no filters to change and no ducts to clean. This means that there is no blowing dust. No blowing dust means a cleaner living space. FLEXIBILITY OF DESIGN; rooms can be zoned, this gives the advantage of controlling the temperature of each room or area. You choose the number of zones in you home or area. Since there are no heat registers, furniture can be placed in any configuration. COST SAVINGS; since the areas are zoned individually, thermostats can be turned down in areas not in use, to save energy. Cost savings are also seen when there are no filters to buy and no duct cleaning necessary.
