Heating and Air Conditioning Goes Automatic
Heating and air conditioning may be standard in most new houses, but today's technology is changing the way we control the climates within our homes. For example, the Carrier WeatherMaker Infinity gas furnace has an easy to program control panel inside the house that can automatically turn on the heat at preset times of the day (i.e. the heat comes on 15 minutes before you get up to get ready for work, then turns off after you've left for work). The heating and air conditioning components can work independently from room to room as well, providing different temperatures in different "zones" of the house. You might want the living room at 72 degrees but keep rarely used rooms at 68. This is no problem for the Infinity which can handle 8 different zones. The control panel is easy to use, having a similar look and feel to today's hand-held technology such as mp3 players. You can get updates on all the zones in the house as well as the outside temperature. All of this automation not only makes your home more comfortable but it saves energy, too.
