Reliable Comfort on Nun's Island: A Simple Yet Effective Replacement
At AirGreen, we pride ourselves on delivering top-notch HVAC solutions across Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, North Shore, and South Shore. This recent installation on Île-des-Sœurs (Nun's Island) is another successful project that underscores our expertise in making residential and commercial spaces comfortable year-round.
Our client on Nun's Island required a simple replacement of an outdated Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner (PTAC) system. After years of service, the old unit had reached the end of its life, and it was time to upgrade to something more efficient and reliable. The Trane ProSpace PTAC, with its combination of cooling and heating, was the ideal choice.
Why the Trane ProSpace PTAC?
The Trane ProSpace™ PTAC is renowned for its reliability and functionality, making it a popular choice for residential settings like apartments, hotels, and condos, where space and performance are essential. With a capacity of 12,000 BTU, this unit can cool and heat the space efficiently, ensuring year-round comfort.
But it’s not just about cooling and heating; it’s about quiet operation, energy efficiency, and durability—everything our client was looking for. The ProSpace PTAC comes with advanced features like automatic room freeze protection and an intelligent on-board computer for diagnostics, which ensures that even if there’s a hiccup in operation, the unit self-checks and corrects most issues.
The Installation Process: Seamless from Start to Finish
We approached this installation with our usual focus on precision and detail. While it may seem like a straightforward replacement job, we always take the time to ensure that every step is done to the highest standard.
Step 1: Removing the Old Unit
First, we safely removed the old PTAC unit. This older model had been installed over a decade ago and was no longer able to meet the energy efficiency or performance needs of the client. Our experienced team made sure the transition to the new system was as smooth as possible by assessing the through-the-wall installation space and ensuring it was prepared for the new unit.
Step 2: Installing the New Trane ProSpace
Once the old unit was out, we carefully installed the Trane ProSpace™ PTAC. This unit fits perfectly into the pre-existing wall sleeve, minimizing any disruption or need for additional modifications. Its sleek design and modern features not only improved the room's air quality and temperature control but also enhanced the overall appearance of the space.
Step 3: Fine-Tuning for Maximum Efficiency
We take extra care with every installation to make sure that the unit is optimized for maximum efficiency. This meant configuring the multi-speed fan, ensuring the 24-hour ON/OFF timer was set, and testing the remote control and thermostat compatibility. These features allow the customer to fine-tune the indoor environment to their liking, all while conserving energy and saving on utility bills.
What Makes the Trane ProSpace PTAC Stand Out?
Durability and quiet operation are two of the biggest advantages of the Trane ProSpace™ PTAC. It’s built to last, with features like Seacoast-coated coil protection, which enhances the longevity of the unit, particularly in coastal or humid environments. This is a perfect fit for areas like Île-des-Sœurs, where the riverfront climate can be tough on HVAC systems.
Another standout feature is the auto-memory function, which ensures that the unit retains its settings even in the event of a power outage. It’s these kinds of thoughtful touches that set Trane apart from other brands in the HVAC world.
The Client's Feedback: A Noticeable Upgrade
Our client was delighted with the new installation. They immediately noticed a significant improvement in both the cooling and heating performance of the new system. The room reached the desired temperature much faster than before, and the quiet operation was a pleasant surprise compared to the older, noisier model.
PTAC Systems: The Perfect Choice for Condos and Apartments
When space is at a premium, as it often is in condos and apartments, PTAC systems provide an excellent balance between performance and footprint. Their compact design allows them to fit seamlessly into existing spaces without the need for extensive ductwork or structural changes.
For residents of places like Île-des-Sœurs, where maintaining a balance between functionality and aesthetics is key, PTAC units offer a discreet, efficient solution that doesn’t compromise on power. The Trane ProSpace™ is especially well-suited for this, offering both heating and cooling in one versatile unit.
A Long-Term Investment in Comfort
By choosing the Trane ProSpace PTAC, our client is investing in long-term comfort and energy efficiency. This model’s ultra-efficient cooling and quiet operation will ensure they enjoy a comfortable living space all year round. Plus, with its 5-year warranty on the compressor and 1-year warranty on parts, they can rest assured that this unit is built to last.
