Bob E. in Ocean City gave Comfort Now a call about cooling the second story of his duplex. He had used Comfort Now in the past for replacing the broken A/C in the first floor of his duplex, and to help get rid of the mold around his system in the past. 

This time Bob was concerned that the second story of hus duplex wan't being properly cooled in the summertime. When we came out and took a look at the system, we realized that the ductwork wasn't set up properly, and there was only 1 thermostat controlling 2 areas. One area, the back bedrooms, was properly cooled and comfortable. The second area, the living room and kitchen area, were not so cool. 

Problem: The 2nd story of the duplex wasn't being properly cooled in the summer. The back rooms were comfortable, while the living room and kitchen area were not. 

Solution: We installed 2 zones (thermostats) with a 2 stage Carrier Infinity System. Now he has proper cooling up from in the living area and kitchen, to the bedrooms. There is no longer has a 10 degree temperature difference from room to room.

The Specialists at Comfort Now decided that a Carrier zoned system was the best solution. This includes 2 different zones, with 2 different thermostats. It will allow people in the back bedrooms to set a certain temperature, and people out in the kitchen and living room area to set their own temperature as well. This will not only keep every area of the place comfortable, but also put an end to blasting the A/C to compensate for the lack of cooling in certain spots. It will most likely lower their energy bills, as well as optimize every room in the house. 

This type of cooling problem is common in shore houses, and especially during the dog days of summer. Everyone has had a sleepless night in a hit room, and there are many different solutions to keep your whole house cool. Don't run up your electric bill using window units to cool parts of the house you can't get comfortable.
