Unico vs. Conventional Ducted Systems
Roughly half the CFM (200-250 vs. 400)
High Static Pressure (Avg. 1.5” w.c.)
Refrigeration Coil vs. A/C Coil
Greater Temp. Drop in AC
1000 to 2000 fpm velocity
Aspiration vs. Diffusion and Throw and Return
THREE BIG DIFFERENCES
1. Airflow
2. Aspiration
3. Static Regain
Unico vs. Conventional
Roughly half the CFM (200-250 vs. 400)
Refrigeration Coil vs. A/C Coil
Greater Temp. Drop in AC
Warmer Temperatures in Heat Pump
Lower Airflow & 6 Row Coil
Removes 30% More Moisture
Higher Discharge Temperature
No Need for Electric Heat to Feel Warm
122°F (50°C)
Discharge Air Temp
At 47° Rating Point
Eliminates Cold Blow Complaints
Unico vs. Conventional
High Static Pressure (1.5” w.c.)*
High Velocity (1000-2000 fpm)
*NOT consider high static pressure by ASHRAE Ratings
