# How many cfm per ton is the Unico system designed for?

The Unico system is specifically engineered and tested to operate at a rate of 250 cubic feet per minute (cfm) per ton of cooling capacity.

In extremely humid climates, a lower rate of 200 cfm per ton may be used if necessary. However, in dry climates, it is crucial to adhere to the recommended 250 cfm per ton for optimal performance.
