The National Trust for Historic Preservation is proud to partner with Unico, Inc., manufacturer of the Unico System.
The Unico System is a small-duct central heating and air-conditioning system. This system fits where conventional systems cannot and preserves the architectural integrity of any structure, making it the preferred method for providing older, historic, and architecturally unique homes with high-end central heating and air conditioning without marring the building’s original aesthetics.
