An HVAC system includes an evaporator, a heater, a plurality of outlets, and a sliding control door downstream of the evaporator, which is configured to allow air to flow across one or both of a heated path across the heater and a bypass path bypassing the heater. A sliding stratification door is downstream of the temperature control door and positionable to, in an intermediate position, direct air flowing through the bypass path to be mixed with air that flowed across the heated path before flowing out of the plurality of outlets.
