Built over 200 years ago by influential attorney and postman, this beautiful home has certainly stood the test of time.

Providing top-notch entertainment for audiences for many years, by 2003, this performing arts center was in need of some upgrades.

The very humid summers and extremely cold winters made this home, which dates back to the 1700’s, quite difficult to live in. For this reason, the owners called on Kelleher Corporation, who then installed 5 Unico Systems to help control the indoor climate of this beautiful civil war era home.

 Stadtler Home

Wanting to restore their home to its original 1898 aesthetic, while increasing their comfort and fuel efficiency, the McGue’s had a problem.

President Truman’s home, a place that has entertained past presidents and dignitaries for over 60 years was in desperate need of help.

 Flower Hill

Known as Flower hill Museum on the Austin historic home tour, this 132 year old home bears the distinction as the place where William Sidney Porter (O. Henry) eloped with his bride in 1889.

When she set out to add air conditioning, she found it very difficult to find a system that would not ruin the homes original aesthetic appeal – until she heard about the Unico System.

 President Lincoln's Cottage

Designated a National Historic Landmark in 1974 and a National Monument in 2000, the home was President Lincoln’s seasonal home from June to November during 1862-1864. One key concern for the restoration was that it not harm the existing architecture of the historic home. With this in mind, the goal was also to make it appear as if Lincoln was still in residence, but have modern conveniences of today’s modern world, such as an HVAC system. That’s why Ron Staley of The Christman Company chose the Unico System – for its minimal impact on the historical fabric and its superior performance.

A working relic of the Air force, Warren Air Force base is the oldest continually active installation in the Air Force. It has over 300 buildings still in use that were built in the 1880’s.

Across the street from Ford’s Theater, the location of President Lincoln’s assassination, sits this row house that the President was brought to after he was shot, and where he would later pass away.
