The Unico System is a complete indoor comfort system
that includes an indoor air handling unit and small duct
system. The air handler and duct system were designed
to operate together to provide the proper airflow in every
installation. The conditioned air is supplied through a
series of 2-inch ducts as a stream of air that entrains and
mixes the room air. This process of aspiration produces a
more even temperature distribution in the room.
The Unico 'M' Modular Series air-handling units consist
of various modules that are easily latched together. The
modules can be arranged in a vertical-up-flow, vertical-
counter-flow and horizontal-flow configuration. They
can be combined as a heating-only, cooling-only, or
heating and cooling air handler unit. See Fig. 1.
All insulated Unico System modules feature closed-cell
insulation for improved sound attenuation. There is no
exposed fiberglass insulation.
