Lan had been struggling with her Unico High-Velocity system since she moved into her home a couple of years ago in Merion Station. Despite the promise of efficient heating and cooling, she found the system to be noisy and the airflow inconsistent. When she had guests over, they often commented on the loudness, sharing her frustration with the forceful airflow. In an attempt to manage the situation, Lan resorted to covering the vents with takeout cups to redirect airflow to different parts of the room, but some vents didn’t work at all. She called multiple contractors, but none were able to resolve her issues.
The Turning Point
The turning point came this year when Lan’s daughter started taking piano lessons. During a visit to the piano teacher’s home, Lan noticed that the teacher also had a High-Velocity system. However, unlike Lan's, it was quiet and the airflow was comfortable. Intrigued, Lan asked the piano teacher about her experience with the installation and system performance. The piano teacher mentioned that she had never had any problems with her system and recommended she reach out to ECI Comfort because of her wonderful experience.
The Solution: Properly Installing a Unico High-Velocity System
Lan decided to give us a call at ECI. When our team arrived at her home, we quickly realized that the root cause of her discomfort was an incorrect installation of the system. This was not only causing the excessive noise but also the inconsistent and forceful airflow.
Importance of proper airflow in ductwork
Proper airflow in ductwork is crucial for the efficiency and comfort of any HVAC system. When airflow is impeded or improperly directed, it can lead to uneven temperatures, increased noise, and higher energy bills. Additionally, incorrect installation can strain the system, reducing its lifespan and performance. Ensuring that ductwork is properly installed and maintained is essential for achieving optimal comfort and efficiency in any home.
