If a home doesn't have forced air heat, installing ductwork for central air conditioning can mean major remodeling and expense. But a Unique Indoor Comfort® system doesn't require large.metal ductwork, or major remodeling.

Cool air is delivered through small 2" flexible tubing that can easily be weaved through walls and ceilings, around studs and other obstacles. All that's visible are small, round outlets in every room.

Proven in thousands of homes, easy to install Unique Indoor Comfort® is the central air conditioning solution for the older home.
