Hi all,
I've an apartment with ducted AC and Heating. It has a single control panel and thermostat in the living room meaning you set the temp you want in the living room and the system either cools down or warms up every room in the apartment to the temp required in the living room. Two problems with this:-
1. As the AC/Heating vents can only be directed but not fully closed whatever temp is set in the living room becomes the temp in all rooms regardless of whether there is anyone in those rooms or whether they'd prefer a different temperature in those rooms.
2. By not being able to close the vents in each room if all you want to do is warm or cool the living room (for example) you effectively have to get all rooms in the house to that temp which is just a giant waste of money.
I'm thinking of installing this smart AC control system (https://www.airzone.es/en/) based on nothing more than a Google search but haven't been able to see much in the way of positive reviews. I like the retro fit model, how it allows you to install temp control panels in each room for individualised temp control, how you can electrically control the vents in each room to be open or fully closed etc and how the entire system can be controlled remotely via a smart phone app and WiFi with geo-fencing etc thus enabling you to cool or warm just the rooms you want but I'm not familiar with the company and would be happier with a similar Google or Tado solution who are so well established and trusted.
Any thoughts? Any suggested alternatives which offer the same or better functionality?
