INTELLIZONE2 SPECIFICATION CATALOG
Introduction
The IntelliZone2 Comfort Zoning system is to be used only
with heat pumps/air handlers equipped with Aurora AXB
or AHB controls. A package unit must have ABC and AXB
to be compatible with IntelliZone2. A split system with
air handler must have ABC and either AXB or AHB (in
air handler) to be compatible with the IntelliZone2. If the
heat pump or air handler do not have Aurora AXB or AHB
controls you must use IntelliZone2•24V Comfort Zoning
system.
Zoning is a method of ensuring that all areas of a home or
building receive the right amount of heating or cooling.
Zoning allows the occupant to independently control the
temperature in each area of the building. If desired, all
areas can be adjusted for occupancy patterns and uses.

Zoning is particularly useful where normal heat distribution
patterns result in uneven temperature control. For example,
a building that is partly below grade can use zoning
to eliminate uneven temperature control between the
basement and the rest of the building. Large buildings that
might have long, unequal length duct runs can use zoning
to equalize the delivery of conditioned air. Buildings with
many large windows can use zoning to compensate for
solar heat gain and radiation losses at night.
Along with providing comfort, zoning can provide energy
savings by keeping various zones at desired set points
without over-cooling or overheating. In effect, zoning
mandates that the heating/cooling system condition only
the portions (or zones) of the building which need to be
conditioned. This translates into shorter compressor run
times and ultimately lower space conditioning bills.
