HIGH PERFORMANCE COOLING AND HEATING SYSTEM WILL HELP HISTORIC BUILDING PRESERVATION

No matter when a building was constructed or what its physical configurations may be, the Unico System mini-duct high performance central heating and cooling system can play a major role in the provision of the ideal indoor climate to preserve building fabric and historic furnishings or artefacts. It can be installed with very limited disruption to a building’s existing structure as the key to the Unico System is the ability to weave its ducting around and through the existing construction.

This flexibility makes it the perfect retrofit solution for building preservation and restoration. Historic or listed building owners are now able to maintain architectural integrity while enjoying many advantages over conventional air conditioning and heating systems in terms of operational performance, aesthetics and the potential for energy conservation.

The Unico System features flexible mini-ducts that can be routed through existing cavities in the ceilings, walls and floors. The modular air handlers and coils can be installed easily into ceiling voids, crawl spaces and even closets. The duct opening outlets are small and can be unobtrusively located at ceiling level.

In the United States, the National Trust for Historic Preservation has helped protect irreplaceable buildings for over 50 years.

They have selected Unico System as a corporate partner, recognising that the unique features and benefits of its high performance system can play a very significant role in building preservation. Numerous systems have already been installed in National Trust properties in the United States and the company is now extending its service to the UK market. It is offering its solution to both private owners of historic homes and buildings as well as charities and other organisations involved in preservation.
