UNICO ANNOUNCES ALLIANCE WITH ECOER FOR MATCHED SYSTEM INVERTER HEAT PUMP

St. Louis, Mo. (February 9, 2022) – Unico System, in conjunction with Ecoer, announced a corporate alliance at last week’s AHR Expo that will offer an inverter heat pump optimized to pair with Unico’s industry-leading small duct air handlers.

Unico, the leading manufacturer of small duct central air and heating systems, and Ecoer, the innovative Virginia-based producer of inverter heat pumps now offer an array of matched products ranging from 1.5-ton to 5.0-ton matched systems. Knowing that ease of proper installation is key to long-term efficient operation, the companies have greatly simplified the installation process. With this increased ease of installation, on-site labor and commissioning time will decrease, providing more profit for contractors. Additionally, contractors can remotely review system performance and recommend any necessary maintenance checks. Both Unico and Ecoer offer warranties of up to 10-years, highlighting the quality built into their equipment to provide long-term carefree comfort for homeowners.

Scott Intagliata, Unico’s chief marketing officer and partner, said, “Both Ecoer and Unico were founded and run by entrepreneurs who are driven to be the best, and this alliance shows that commitment to contractors and homeowners.” Rick Warner, President of Ecoer North America, added that both companies are technology leaders and that the technology is well-aligned between the two companies.

Unico and Ecoer products are available nationwide to contractors through HVAC distributors.
