Optimizing comfort in a restricted space in the city center
In the vibrant heart of Ville-Marie , within a modern condo bathed in light, our AirGreen team recently installed a Fujitsu wall-mounted air conditioner . Space constraints, common in downtown apartments, required both a technical and aesthetic approach to ensure optimal comfort without compromising the visual harmony of the space.
Client context and needs
The owner of this condo was looking for an efficient and energy-saving air conditioning solution. Since Montreal summers can be particularly hot and humid, he wanted a quiet, compact unit that could maintain a stable temperature, even in tight spaces like a hallway adjacent to a bedroom.
After analyzing the air volumes and room layout, we recommended installing a Fujitsu wall-mounted air conditioner from the residential wall-mounted range , renowned for its reliability and energy efficiency.
Challenges of moving into a condo
Installing an HVAC system in a condo always presents specific features:
-
Limited space : The available wall was above a closet and close to the ceiling.
-
Aesthetics : avoid any excessive visual intrusion, especially in a passageway.
-
Technical route : manage the passage of refrigerant connections to the balcony without harming the sealing or the structure of the building.
The AirGreen solution
Our technicians proceeded with great precision:
-
Positioning of the indoor unit : high up, above the closet doors, ensuring optimal air distribution in the hallway and adjoining bedroom.
-
Drilling and routing of pipes : installation of a discreet cover to protect the refrigerant and electrical pipes, with an optimized passage to the outside.
-
Condensate management : gravity drainage to the balcony, thus avoiding the need for a condensate pump and reducing the risk of future breakdown.
Technical characteristics of the Fujitsu wall-mounted air conditioner
The choice of Fujitsu is explained by its advantages:
-
Capacity : 12,000 BTU, perfectly suited to a condo of this size.
-
Energy efficiency : Energy Star rated, guaranteeing reduced consumption and eligibility for Quebec subsidy programs .
-
Quiet operation : ideal for bedrooms and relaxation areas.
-
Simple design : blends discreetly into the interior aesthetic.
Results obtained
After commissioning and calibrating the system, the customer immediately noticed an improvement in thermal comfort . The air diffusion is homogeneous, even in the adjoining room, and the operation remains almost inaudible .
This project once again demonstrates AirGreen's ability to meet the specific challenges of condo installations in Montreal, where technical and architectural constraints require in-depth expertise.
