Zone Information

Very often one zone per floor works well because radiant heat is very even. The temperature in all the rooms tends to equilibrate. But, if you have a lifestyle (cooler bedrooms, rarely used spaces) or architectural (sunroom, lots of windows) reason to keep one area of a given floor noticeably warmer or cooler than the rest of the space..then multiple zones make sense.

Please give a name to this zone (i.e. kid's rooms, hall, bath; entire 1st floor; kitchen,living, dining; etc.)

What is the square footage of the heating zone?
