A Season of Gratitude and Looking Ahead

As 2025 comes to a close and the holidays approach, we find ourselves reflecting on the year and all the homes that The Unico System has helped make more comfortable. This time of year always invites us to slow down, look around, and appreciate the warmth and comfort we get to enjoy at home with the people who matter most.

At Unico, we believe comfort is about creating spaces that feel inviting in every season. Whether you’re hosting family in your new custom home, decorating for the holidays in your 19th century Dutch Colonial, sipping egg nogg by the fire in your modular build, or simply enjoying a quiet evening in your Frank Llyod Wright Prairie Style house, your home should feel just right. That’s why we’re proud to see The Unico System featured in more homes than ever this year, from classic remodels to modern custom builds. Each one reflects a unique vision of comfort, efficiency, and design.

What makes The Unico System special for homeowners is how seamlessly it fits into your life. It keeps your entire home comfortable without bulky equipment taking up space or creating noise. That means more room for family, more peace and quiet, and more time enjoying your home exactly the way you want.

Looking back, we’re incredibly thankful for the homeowners, builders, and contractors who have trusted Unico to bring comfort to their living spaces. Your stories and feedback continue to inspire us and drive innovation in how we design and support our systems.

As we head into 2026, we’re excited to keep finding new ways to make homes more comfortable, efficient, and beautifully designed. Our promise remains simple: to help you enjoy year-round comfort without compromise. From everyone here at Unico, Inc., thank you for welcoming us into your homes and lives this year.

Make Every Gathering Comfortable with The Unico System

Make Every Gathering Comfortable with The Unico System

As the weather cools and the holiday approach, our homes become the heart of connection. Friends and family gather around the table, living rooms are filled with laughter, and kitchens buzz with the smells of your favorite seasonal recipes. This is the time of year when comfort matters more than ever.

But true comfort is more than a cozy blanket or a warm drink. It is about creating a home where every room feels welcoming, warm, and consistent. Many traditional heating systems struggle to maintain even temperatures, leaving some rooms too hot and others too cold, or creating drafts that distract from the moment.

That is where The Unico System makes a difference. It’s small-duct, high-velocity design delivers even, draft-free comfort throughout your home. Every room feels the same temperature, so no one is too hot or too cold. The system operates quietly, keeping conversations, laughter, and music at the center of your gatherings. Its discreet outlets blend seamlessly into your home’s design, so comfort never comes at the expense of style.

Homeowners love The Unico System because it maintains consistent temperatures in every room, removes humidity effectively, operates quietly, and fits seamlessly into any home. Imagine a holiday dinner where every room is cozy, every guest is comfortable, and the only thing people notice is how welcoming your home feels. That is the experience The Unico System helps create.

This season, let your home support every gathering. With The Unico System, comfort is effortless, and every corner of your home can be ready for the season’s best moments.

Unico Goes Global!

Unico Goes Global!

We’ve always been proud of our status as the best manufacturer of small-duct high velocity HVAC systems in North America, but we aren’t content to “hide our light under a bushel” by limiting ourselves to our own continent. For over two decades, Unico has been working hard on establishing a presence in international markets such as the United Kingdom and China.

 

Our UK Team has established solid representation, extensive distribution, and key partnerships, bringing our superior comfort and efficiency to thousands of homes and businesses throughout the British Isles. Similarly, our expansion efforts in China have resulted in dependable representation, distribution, and sales into key urban markets in this economic powerhouse.

 

Over the last several years, we’ve even gained a foothold Down Under – with representation, distribution, and installations into homes and businesses in Australia and New Zealand. And, most recently, we’ve partnered with Ireland’s largest HVAC distributor to bring The Unico System to the burgeoning Irish HVAC market.

 

And we’re not stopping there – we are currently pursuing opportunities on the African continent in Ghana and Nigeria; in the Eastern Europe countries of Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary; and even in the Middle East, with potential sales into Israel.

 

You can see the fruits of these efforts by viewing many examples on the International section of our Case Studies webpage.

 

All of this helps to increase knowledge and awareness of the features and benefits of The Unico System on the world stage. So, next time you splurge on that European vacation or African safari, don’t be surprised if you spot our unobtrusive outlets in your AirBnB, VRBO rental, or hotel room (of course, you’ll have to look very hard)!

No Limits, Just Comfort: Unico in Modular, Log & Timber & More

No Limits, Just Comfort: Unico in Modular, Log & Timber & More

When it comes to designing your dream home, comfort should never be an afterthought. Whether you’re building a cozy log cabin, a sleek modular home, or a rustic timber-framed retreat, your HVAC system plays a big role in how the space feels year-round. The challenge? Traditional HVAC systems often don’t fit the unique layouts, styles, and construction of these homes.

That’s where The Unico System comes in.

Unico is a small-duct, high-velocity HVAC system, designed to bring comfort without compromise. Its flexible design means you don’t have to worry about oversized ductwork disrupting your architectural plans-or your view of that vaulted ceiling. Instead, Unico adapts to your home, no matter its size, shape, or style.

Why Unico Works for Any Style Home

  • Modular Homes-pre-fab doesn’t mean cookie-cutter. Modular homes can be highly customized, but space is often tight. Unico’s small, flexible ducts easily weave through walls and ceilings, keeping the design intact while delivering even comfort.
  • Log & Timber Homes– The beauty of exposed beams and wood finishes shouldn’t be overshadowed by bulky vents. Unico uses discreet outlets that blend into walls, floors, or ceilings-so your homes character stays front and center.
  • Renovations & Retrofits-Older homes or unique builds don’t always have room for traditional ductwork. Unico was made for these situations, fitting where others can’t, and ensuring every room feels just right.
  • Custom Builds– From modern masterpieces to historic-inspired designs, Unico gives architects and homeowners the freedom to focus on aesthetics without worrying about HVAC limitations.

Comfort Without Compromising

With Unico, you don’t have to choose between design and comfort. Our system provides:

  • Even temperatures throughout the home
  • Whisper-quiet performance so you hear life, not your HVAC
  • Energy efficiency that helps lower utility bills
  • Seamless design that doesn’t interfere with your vision

Your home should reflect your style-not the limitations of a traditional HVAC system. Whether you’re building, renovating, or dreaming, The Unico System ensures comfort is always part of the plans.

Why The Unico System Is a Smart Choice for Multi-Family Projects

Why The Unico System Is a Smart Choice for Multi-Family Projects

When it comes to designing HVAC systems for multi-family buildings, developers and mechanical contractors face a familiar set of challenges: space constraints, preservation of architectural aesthetics, energy efficiency demands, and the need for quiet comfort. The Unico System was engineered to meet exactly these kinds of challenges-and it’s already proving its value in high-end multi-family projects across the country.

Two standout examples-the Lucas Condos in Boston, MA and the Vue Newport Marina Condos in Newport Beach, CA-showcase how The Unico System can help architects, engineers, and developers deliver superior comfort without compromising design.

Lucas Condos, Boston MA: A Church Transformed

The Lucas Condos is a luxury residence located in Boston’s South End, housed in the restored shell of the 1874 German Trinity Catholic Church. The project presented a unique HVAC challenge: how to preserve the soaring ceilings, stained glass windows, and original masonry while adding modern heating and cooling to each unit.

The solution? The Unico System.

Our small-duct, high-velocity design allowed the project team to run HVAC supply tubing through existing wall cavities and structural voids-no soffits, no bulkheads, no design sacrifices. Each unit in the Lucas Condos features discreet outlets and a nearly invisible HVAC footprint, maintaining the architectural beauty of the historic church while providing residents with modern, efficient comfort.

Vue Newport Marina Condos, Newport Beach, CA: Waterfront Luxury Meets Performance

In Newport Beach, the Vue Newport Marina Condos brought luxury living to the Pacific Ocean waterfront. For this sleek, modern development, performance, efficiency, and aesthetics were key. With space at a premium and open-concept layouts a top priority, traditional ducted HVAC systems were off the table.

Thanks to the compact footprint of The Unico System’s air handler and flexible tubing, the mechanical contractor was able to install systems in tight spaces, such as closets or utility areas, without impacting ceilings heights or floorplans. The end result was a high-performing HVAC system that blends seamlessly into the design of each unit-delivering quiet, draft-free comfort year-round.

Whether the project is a historic retrofit or modern new construction, The Unico System helps solve the common pain points of multi-family design: minimal space requirements, design flexibility, quiet operation, energy efficiency, and premium aesthetics. That’s why more and more builders are choosing The Unico System to meet the demands of today’s multifamily market.
