Zone Heating With Gas Fireplace

Why heat the entire house when you only frequent main living areas?

By targeting specific areas in your home that you frequent the most, you ensure getting the perfect blend of radiant and convective warmth – where you want it when you want it. Unlike traditional forced air central heating systems that distribute heated air through ducts, zone heating with a gas fireplace requires no ducting or forced air. This makes it an economical and efficient heating solution in the long run.

Zone Heating Explained 

A climate control technology that provides homeowners with the option to redirect heat output to specific areas of the home, improving heating efficiency.

Traditional forced air central heating systems distribute heated air from a central furnace unit through ducts to various points in the home. The furnace burners cycle on and off as often as 3-4 times per hour depending on the thermostat’s setting and sensitivity. During average heating weather, furnace “on cycle” times may be relatively short, with the burners shutting down before peak efficiency is even reached. This results in reduced efficiencies through “cycling losses.”

An efficient Valor gas fireplace zone heater puts warmth directly into the space you wish to heat with virtually no cycling losses. Valor heaters utilize special lightweight steel and ceramic components to heat up quickly and reach efficiency in minutes. With a Valor installed in one or more of your main living zones, you can enjoy increased comfort while reducing furnace usage in colder weather or eliminating it during warmer Spring and Fall seasons.

A fantastic alternative to central heating

Don’t waste your money heating the living spaces in your home that you’re not using. With zone heating, you can easily reduce your energy consumption and reduce your utility bill in the process. Turn down the furnace and turn on your hearth appliance to maintain comfort in your common living area.
