2.2 Zone Heating and How to Make it Work for You
Your new Destination 1.5 wood insert is a space heater, which means it is intended to heat the
area it is installed in, as well as spaces that connect to that area, although to a lower temperature.
This is called zone heating and it is an increasingly popular way to heat homes or spaces within
homes.
Zone heating can be used to supplement another heating system by heating a particular space
within a home, such as a basement family room or an addition that lacks another heat source.
Although the insert may be able to heat the main living areas of your house to an adequate
temperature, we strongly recommend that you also have a conventional oil, gas or electric heating
system to provide backup heating.
Your success with zone heating will depend on several factors, including the correct sizing and
location of the insert, the size, layout and age of your home and your climate zone. Three-season
vacation homes can usually be heated with smaller inserts than houses that are heated all winter.
