Are Bypass ducts needs in a Dual Zone System

Jul 05, 2007 4 Replies

Hi all,



I'm planning to have a Honeywell dual zone system nstalled in a two- story 2400 sq ft home. Their will be a thermostat on each floor. I've read that a bypass duct isn't required in this type of installation. Is this correct?



I recall seeing an episode of "Ask This Old House" where not having a bypass duct was the cause of some overpresure issues. Unfortunately, I don't recall the size of the home or the number of zones.



Thanking you in advance, Orlanzo



So you want us to guess how this system is designed?

You dont. When the zones start shutting down the ductwork just explodes. Your Welome in advance Bubba

Dual zone "WHAT" heat pump, ac, furnce??????????
