Reviving Classic Philadelphia Homes with ECI Comfort and Unico High-Velocity HVAC Systems

As Philadelphia's historic neighborhoods undergo revitalization, one key factor driving their transformation is modernizing how older homes are heated and cooled. ECI Comfort has been at the forefront of this effort for over 20 years, helping restore comfort and efficiency in these classic homes using Unico High-Velocity Systems.
 
Philadelphia's iconic neighborhoods are attracting a diverse range of residents—from young families to empty-nesters—who value community living close to the city. According to Philadelphia Magazine, these new homeowners expect modern amenities that elevate their quality of life.
 

The Challenges of Heating and Cooling Older Homes

Many of the homes in these neighborhoods were built long before modern HVAC systems were invented. When retrofitting traditional systems, space, efficiency, and the home's integrity are major concerns. Classic Philadelphia rowhouses and brownstones offer little extra space for bulky ductwork and large units.
 
This is where Unico High-Velocity Systems shine. These compact systems are less intrusive, require minimal space, and offer superior performance—making older homes more appealing to buyers and residents alike.READ: Using a High-Velocity System to Keep the Trinity Charm

Today's buyers are eco-conscious and seek solutions that provide comfort without sacrificing aesthetics. High-velocity small-duct systems are designed to preserve a home's architectural integrity while providing modern heating and cooling. The air handler and compact ductwork can fit in tight spaces like closets, while the small, customizable vents blend seamlessly into walls, ceilings, or floors.
 
High-velocity Systems are not only discreet but also highly efficient. These systems eliminate hot spots and reduce summer humidity by 30% compared to traditional HVAC systems, helping homeowners save on energy bills while enjoying year-round comfort.
