An environmental control system (ECS) of an aircraft includes an inlet (22) for a first medium, an outlet for the first medium, an air cycle machine (30) including a compressor (32), a turbine (34), and a shaft (38) operably coupling the compressor and the turbine, and a plurality of heat exchangers (40, 44) arranged in fluid communication with the air cycle machine. A first heat exchanger of the plurality of heat exchangers is arranged directly downstream from the turbine and heat is transferred to the first medium within the first heat exchanger. A water extractor (52) is arranged directly downstream from the first heat exchanger and a flow path connects the air cycle machine, the plurality of heat exchangers, and the water extractor with the inlet and the outlet.
