PROBLEM: John's older stone home used window AC units and radiators for heat, but he wanted an entirely new HVAC system that would be more efficient and easier to maintain.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a hybrid multi-zone, Unico High-Velocity system and Trane heat pump.
PROBLEM: These homeowners struggled with bad allergies and asthma due to dry and dusty air from their forced hot air furnace. This lead them to installing an expensive boiler and radiant floor system to avoid using the furnace, which then stopped working.
SOLUTION: After an initial sale of a new boiler to try and fix the radiator heat issue, ECI changed course to implement an Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) package to the existing and functioning ducted furnace.
PROBLEM: The Knipes were looking to get rid of the window AC units in their Fairmount rowhome, but did not want to retrofit the home with bulky ductwork.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Split downstairs, and a Mitsubishi Ducted unit upstairs to keep the whole house evenly cooled.
PROBLEM: These homeowners did not want to go through another summer using window and wall AC units. But they also did not want to disrupt the elegance of their beautiful 1915 Trinity home with mini-splits. Moreover, they did not want to give up precious space to install ductwork.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a high velocity system for cooling the entire home, and a heat pump to provide warmth during the milder seasons. Brad and Jared were able to get comfortable cooling and heating without paying astronomical bills or altering the home's aesthetic.
PROBLEM: This homeowner was tired of the summer heat taking over her home, but it was too much of a pain to continuously install window AC units every year. Not only was the installation process burdensome, but the inefficiency and "window-rattling" were becoming too much of a nuisance. Time for an upgrade!
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Split system. This system doesn't require ductwork to add both air conditioning and supplemental heat, so it's a great way to solve heating and cooling problems in older homes that lack the extra space for ductwork. For South Philly rowhomes, ductless AC is the perfect match.
PROBLEM: This 1920's home had electric radiators for heat but no central air. This meant our homeowners had been relying on bulky window air conditioners that are a pain to install and take down.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Split system. This system doesn't need ductwork to add both air conditioning and supplemental heat, so it's a perfect way to solve heating and cooling problems in older homes that lack the extra space for ductwork.
PROBLEM: New homeowners in Philadelphia, Pa. did not have central air or a working radiator system. They needed an efficient AC system as well as a way to heat their home.
SOLUTION: ECI installed a multi-zone Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat Ductless Mini-Split system to provide year-round heating and cooling for their entire home.
PROBLEM: This apartment building, with an individual unit on each floor, had no heat after the existing oil furnace stopped working right as winter began. On top of that, none of these units had air conditioning either!
SOLUTION: ECI installed a Multi-Zone Daikin Ductless heating and cooling system. This system gave each apartment individual control over its heating and cooling needs, versus one single-controlled, single-zoned system.
PROBLEM: A South Philly rowhome had no air conditioning. Our homeowner didn’t want to add ductwork, and there was no room outside for an AC condenser.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a Mitsubishi ductless mini-split with four air handlers inside and a side-discharge heat pump in the breezeway.
PROBLEM: Our homeowners' 30-year-old boiler was due for replacement -- they were having to repair it more frequently and their energy bills were increasing.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a Thermoflo high-efficiency gas boiler to replace the old system.
