SYSTEM PRESSURE RELIEF
With a Zone Control System, some form of pressure relief must be designed into the system to assure proper operation and reduce
the possibility of noise due to airflow. The method of pressure relief that has been designed into your system could include use of
a bypass damper or the Aprilaire method of controlled pressure relief. With the controlled pressure relief method, a predetermined
amount of air is allowed to pass through a closed damper. The amount of air that is passed by each damper (the bypass) is not
enough to cause a noticeable temperature change in a non-calling zone, but is enough to relieve the higher system pressures.
So, if you feel small amounts of air entering into a non-calling zone, what you are feeling is the bypass air.
Remember, this bypass is normal and provides pressure relief for the system without causing a noticeable change
in temperature within that zone.
