I am thinking about adding central air conditioning to my older home. The house has radiator heat, which I am going to keep. I would like to add a high velocity air conditioning system, like Unico or Space-pak, and am leaning towards the Unico system. Has anyone installed a Unico air conditioning system, and if so, how do you like it?

A: In the archives a guy, (seems like his name is Greg) gives it two thumbs. I have been researching this just today, and like everything so far without talking to anyone who actually owns one. I couldn't find a contractor to work with in my area so I called the company in St. Louis and they put me on with a Vice-president who put through a conference call to Little Rock and I quickly had all kinds of info. I guess I'll know a hell of a lot about them in a couple months. The system seems made to order for the 1906 story and a half I am just starting on. I also would like to hear from somebody who knows about these systems.
*TOH (I know, I know) ran an article on this system maybe 6 mos. back. Ideally you would get in touch with the owners to see how they are enduring this particularly hot summer.
*Lonecat,I would be very grateful to learn from your experience too. I also have an early model 1 1/2 story house (1930's bungelow) that I can't keep cool. I certainly would appreciate hearing how it goes. You can e-mail me at [email protected] if you don't want to post it.Bryan
*I've got a rep coming to visit me towards the end of July. If he offers anything earth-shattering, I'll pass it on as well as his contact info.I've done basic research only, but those I've spoken with that have had the system in place for a few cooling seasons have no complaints. They do have a fairly generic web site, but it may answer a few of your questions. Contact # for Unico: 1-800-527-0896.
*Stay tuned, I've got a Unico rep coming to walk through the house next week. I'm probably going to gut this house I have, but they make it sound like they can address about anything without much demolition.
