Hi All,
I live in a Back Split house (bedrooms upstairs, living room
downstairs) and have one of those LCD thermostats on main floor. I am
not really happy with hit distribution in my house. I set the
temperature in a scheduled order to keep the temperature at nights at
23 (74) degree but regardless of that our bedrooms upstairs are always
to hot or too cold (depends on outside temperature). I think the
problem is cold/hit from outside first hit the main floor (that
thermostat is) and then bedrooms. Beside this problem I am wondering
if I can computerize the whole temperature control system. I am
thinking about someway to software-control temperature of each room.
So I can bring down bedrooms and bring up living room temperatures
during the days and backward during nights (or for instance turn off
hit for guest room if no one is there; no guest). For implementing
something like this I need two things:
1- Controllable Air Flow Register (Motorize)
2- Temperature sensor for each room (this part should be the easy
part, there are lots of digital single-wire sensor in market that even
can be chained)
Anyone knows anything about Motorize Register or any comment on my
idea? Anyone interested to do it as a team?
Thanks,
Homer
