Damper Control installation in each room
In Part 1, we covered the integration of HVAC systems into the Miniserver for smarter temperature control. The next step is integrating damper control, allowing temperatures and schedules to be set for each room individually.
Did you miss anything in Part 1?
In Part 2 we’ll be talking about zones. Many HVAC systems work with two zones controlled by two thermostats, one in the upper floor and another in the lower floor of the house.
Since heating and cooling are only distributed through the HVAC system, the only way to change the airflow is through the ventilation grills, which might not be very convenient.. We’ve all dealt with closing vents on the first floor in the summer and opening them in the winter to get the second floor and first to be balanced.
In order to benefit from setting up temperatures and schedules per room, a Loxone Damper Tree must be installed in all the room splits. This enables you to:
 |
Heat the bathroom in the morning and in the evening, and lower the temperature during the day to save energy. |
|
Keep the living room cool when the house is empty during the week, and warm on the weekend (as long as the house is not empty). |
|
Keep the bedroom cool to improve sleep quality and save energy. |
|
Turn down the HVAC automatically when the house is empty, and turn it up again when the house is occupied. |
|
Have remote access to the HVAC system and see temperatures and notifications if there are any issues (such as temperature fluctuations or HVAC water leaks). |
Installation of Damper Tree in three steps
The Loxone Damper Tree controls the air flow and temperature by adjusting its position. The installation of a damper control is as simple as one, two three:
Put the dampers into the ducts where the ductwork branches to the individual rooms.
Connect the dampers via Loxone’s Tree Technology, allowing up to 50 device connections with a single wire.
Control HVAC with Tree Dampers
Loxone Config makes it easy to implement features such as:
Individual heating and cooling schedules for each room
Setting and changing preferred temperatures
Automatic heating or cooling to the preferred temperature in time
Save energy when nobody is at home by going into stand-by
Notify the owner about sudden temperature drops automatically
There is no need to change temperatures back and forth. Once Tree Damper control is set up, everything works automatically.
