ACTUATED VENT

摘要

Disclosed is a system for controlling temperature of an area via vents. In one embodiment, the areas/rooms of a building that are substantially isolated from one another may require or benefit from temperature that are different from other areas/rooms. Accordingly, the system includes an actuator that is coupleable to a valve structure of a vent. The fluid flow upstream of the vent may be conditioned by a climate control system, such as a furnace. The system of the present disclosure further includes a controller that is coupleable in communication with the actuator. The controller is configured to receive a vent input and send a command signal to the actuator based on the vent input. The vent input is a desired position of the valve structure of the vent and the controller is independent of the climate control system.
