How the ULTRA-ZONE System works.
The purpose of the Ultra-Zone system is to provide total comfort in the home and office. Motorized dampers
are “opened” or “closed” by thermostats based on the temperature set point of the homeowner. The damper
system will control the airflow through the ductwork and deliver ONLY the desired air to the desired loca-
tion. Each thermostat has the ability to turn on and shut off the heating and cooling. The Ultra-Zone system
can accommodate over 20 zones. This means that over 20 thermostats can be installed in a home or building to
control the temperature in each zone.
There are very few Ultra-Zone components that are needed to make the zoning system function. The control
panel is the “brain” of the system. The zone thermostats allow independent temperature control, and the zone
dampers control the airflow to the zone thermostats. A transformer is needed to power the system and occa-
sionally a by-pass damper may be required.
The basic components of an Ultra-Zone system are:
1) A Control Panel 4) Dedicated Transformer
2) Zone Thermostats 5) By-pass Damper (If necessary)
3) Zone Dampers
Along with some thermostat wire, the above are the only components that are needed to install an Ultra-Zone
system. The above diagram shows a typical installation with all of the components needed for a zoning system.

CONDITIONS
With one thermostat the entire house is one zone,
making it difficult to control the comfort level through-
out the house.
With multiple thermostats (zoning), occupants can maintain
their desired temperature set point upstairs and downstairs
independently of each other.
