SpacePak Installation in Oak Park, IL
The place where renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright founded his architectural practice, Oak Park, IL is filled with distinct housing styles, including Wright designs. The village is internationally celebrated for its architecturally diverse styles, including Prairie School, Queen Anne, Tudor Revival, American Foursquare, Colonial Revival, and bungalows. There are three historic districts in the village: the Ridgeland/Oak Park Historic District, the Gunderson Historic District, and the Frank Lloyd Wright-Prairie School of Architecture Historic District. The village also features many other remarkable older homes that, while not carrying a historic designation, showcase distinctive early 20th-century architecture.
SpacePak Central Air: Preserving Aesthetics and Architectural Integrity
Oak Park residents who live in one of the village’s many vintage homes wouldn’t trade the experience for the world. But, as these homes were designed before the introduction of central air conditioning, they weren’t constructed to accommodate modern cooling technologies. With Oak Park’s muggy season lasting for nearly four months, homeowners have had to find alternate ways to keep their homes cool and comfortable.
American Vintage Home is pleased to offer Oak Park, IL homeowners a revolutionary air conditioning solution tailored to older homes without central air. Designed to fit within the framework of older homes without ductwork, SpacePak delivers superior comfort for your Oak Park home.
How the SpacePak Air Conditioning System Works
SpacePak is what’s known as a high-velocity system that uses aspiration to cool your home. Aspiration is a term that simply means “to draw up gas.” Top features of the system include:
- Flexible ductwork that fits discreetly inside wall and floor cavities, so there’s no need for major renovation such as adding bulkheads or gutting walls
- Energy-saving temperature zoning capabilities
- Ability to install vents anywhere, including walls, floors, and ceilings
SpacePak is a total home comfort solution that offers premium air circulation and draft-free comfort with no cold or hot spots.
Central Air Anywhere
With the SpacePak system, you’ll enjoy even air temperatures in every corner of your home. But what you won’t see is an AC unit in every room. SpacePak is designed to blend in with your Oak Park home’s existing structure. You enjoy comfortable, cool air without compromising your home’s interior charm and beauty.

SpacePak FAQs
Is the SpacePak system noisy?
When properly installed, SpacePak systems generate the same sound as new conventional forced air systems. While the system is high-velocity, sound attenuation tubing near all your vents acts as a buffer to reduce sound.
Do SpacePak systems offer the same comfort as conventional air conditioning systems?
Yes, and sometimes more so, as the SpacePak system can remove up to 30% more moisture from the air than conventional forced-air systems. This is a great benefit during Oak Park’s high-humidity summers.
How long does it take to install a SpacePak or Unico system?
Depending on the size of your home, it generally takes five to seven workdays. We want to make sure every installation we do fits a home perfectly and delivers optimal system performance.
