UNICO FITS YOUR BUSINESS
What is Unico?
Small System, Huge Opportunity
Your customers have a lot of choices when it comes to indoor comfort products and the specialists who install them. Today's homeowners are armed with a wealth of online information about the features and benefits of various central air products and, likewise, they investigate the reputation and experience of HVAC contractors.
Set yourself apart by offering your customers the best air conditioning system on the market, the Unico System.
The Unico System is small, a lot smaller than conventional systems. And that provides big advantages to HVAC installers. Whether you are adding air conditioning to existing homes, outfitting new custom homes, or simply replacing old systems, the Unico System fits where others can't.
Instead of conventional ductwork, flexible supply tubing is fitted into existing wall cavities, ceilings, or floors. Modular air handlers—small enough to fit into closets, attics, ceilings, crawl spaces, or basements—are powerful enough to effectively circulate air throughout any home. Even though its footprint is small, the Unico System delivers the same level of cooling as a conventional system three times its size.
Our supply tubing is designed to be as quiet and efficient as possible, with a nylon inner core and insulation that absorb sound. Our air handlers are designed to isolate noise and vibration, with closed cell, sound-deadening insulation. Together, they bring decibel levels to the equivalent of a soft whisper. While your customers will feel the comfort, they'll hardly notice it's running.
Small System, Big Customer Comfort
Your customers will love the comfort available from the Unico System. Instead of the "dump and throw" method used by conventional and mini-split systems, Unico uses aspiration to deliver even, draft-free cooling. From room to room, floor to ceiling, and level to level, the temperature differential is never greater than 2 degrees throughout the home.
The Unico System cooling module uses a deep copper tube/aluminum fan coil that removes up to 30% more humidity than conventional systems. So, your customers can keep their thermostat a few degrees higher to achieve the same level of comfort—and save on energy costs to boot. For a look at our air handling unit performance, see our eBook on AHU Performance and Humidity Removal.

Frank Lloyd Wright-Inspired Historic Home
Highland Park, IL
Overview
As the owner of Able Distributors, Michael Bleier has been providing heating and air conditioning products for discerning contractors in the Greater Chicago area for over 20 years. In 2007, Michael purchased an historic home in the suburb of Highland Park, IL, that was designed by an apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright. Michael wanted to restore the property to its original splendor while adding modern, state-of-the art conveniences.
The stacked stone house is of particular significance because it was originally built in 1920 as the personal residence of Wright’s apprentice, the architect John Van Bergen. Over several decades, Van Bergen designed many homes in the Prairie style throughout Chicagoland and the Midwest. The home’s original design and local history were key factors in Michael’s decision to buy the home, but he also needed to make some serious upgrades. So, when it came to replacing the existing inefficient forced air system, Michael knew The Unico System was the only way to go.
