Summary

The article says The Unico System supports better indoor air in modular homes. It describes a small-duct, high-velocity HVAC system that fits tight spaces, improves circulation, reduces humidity, and can help deliver fresh outside air.

Key points

Modular homes are becoming tighter and more energy efficient.
Proper ventilation and air circulation are presented as essential.
Traditional HVAC systems may take up too much space and create inconsistent airflow.
The Unico System uses smaller, flexible ducts.
The system circulates air more frequently and more evenly.
It can reduce humidity and help prevent stale, stagnant air.
It can be configured to provide 100% fresh outside air.
It minimizes air leakage, which supports energy efficiency and a cleaner indoor environment.
It uses MERV-rated air filters to remove dust, pollen, and other airborne particles.
It integrates with ERVs and HRVs.

Indoor air quality benefits

Improved air circulation.
Reduced drafts.
Better humidity control.
Reduced allergens.
Filtered, conditioned, and balanced air in every room.
Support for healthier breathing environments, especially for people with allergies and sensitivities.

Design and code support

The article says the system can help modular builders work toward stricter code requirements or standards such as Passive House, Net Zero, and IECC. It also says the company offers design, training, and customer service support.

FAQ facts from the page

Topic	Fact stated on the page
Small-duct HVAC systems	They are described as ideal for tight spaces and useful for superior air circulation and better humidity control.
Improving indoor air quality	Use proper ventilation, MERV-rated air filters, and humidity control.
High-performance homes	They are built to exceed standard codes and prioritize a tight thermal envelope, energy efficiency, and advanced systems.
Modular home energy efficiency	Modular homes are often more energy efficient because factory-controlled construction allows tighter seals and better insulation.
ERVs	They exchange stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air and transfer heat and moisture between airstreams.
