Each number is a point we check on site. Switch between summer and winter to watch air and heat move.

Generic diagram: central heat pump, indoor module and ducts

In summer, the outdoor unit rejects the house's heat outside.

  1. It captures or rejects heat outside. It sits on a level base, above the snow, with free space all around.

  2. The insulated refrigerant lines enter the house through a sealed opening and run to the indoor coil.

  3. A shut-off switch near the outdoor unit isolates it safely for service.

  4. Sitting on the indoor module, it moves heat between the house air and the refrigerant.

  5. Electric furnace or air handler: its fan pushes air through the ducts. The electric backup takes over in extreme cold.

  6. Supply ducts bring air to the rooms; returns bring it back to the unit. Their condition matters as much as the unit's.

  7. It protects the coil and the fan. A dirty filter cuts airflow, so it gets checked regularly.

  8. It runs the heat pump and the backup heat. It must be compatible with the installed system.

The job

Experience Unmatched Comfort and Efficiency with Our Expert Installation

At AirGreen, we pride ourselves on transforming living spaces into zones of optimal comfort and tranquility. Our latest project in Brossard, South Shore, exemplifies our commitment to excellence. We recently installed a Fujitsu Concealed Duct System with an 18,000 BTU compressor, cleverly integrated to serve three separate 6,000 BTU air outlets. Let's dive into the intriguing details of this installation and explore how our solutions can elevate your comfort experience.


A Peek Into the Project: The Challenge and Our Approach

When our team first arrived at the Brossard residence, we were greeted with a unique architectural layout that required a strategic and creative approach. The homeowner sought a climate control system that would be unobtrusive, highly efficient, and capable of maintaining a comfortable temperature throughout the year. Our mission was clear: integrate a concealed duct system that seamlessly blends into the home’s structure while delivering exceptional performance.

Why Choose the Fujitsu Concealed Duct System?

The Fujitsu Concealed Duct model is one of the most versatile and reliable ducted HVAC systems available. Designed to be nearly invisible, it hides behind walls and ceilings, ensuring that your interior aesthetics remain untouched. Here’s why this system stands out:

  • Optimal Climate Control: Equipped with advanced automatic airflow adjustment, it ensures even distribution of cool or warm air.
  • Quiet Operation: With a sound level as low as 29 dB(A), the system operates almost silently, perfect for a serene home environment.
  • Energy Efficiency: Certified by Energy Star, the unit uses R-410A refrigerant, reducing its environmental impact while cutting down energy costs.
  • Smart Features: The system offers modes like Auto, Cool, Dry, Fan, and Heat, along with a weekly timer and auto changeover for total flexibility and convenience.

The Installation Process: Attention to Detail and Precision

Our installation process was meticulous. We began by assessing the layout and determining the ideal locations for the ductwork. Given the residence's layout, we faced a challenge in routing the ducts to ensure optimal air distribution without compromising the home's structural integrity.

  1. Duct Integration: We carefully concealed the ductwork within the walls and ceiling, utilizing slim duct designs that maximize space efficiency. The Fujitsu system is well-suited for such installations, thanks to its compact dimensions of 24.41 x 7.78 x 35.44 inches.
  2. Strategic Air Outlet Placement: We positioned the three 6,000 BTU air outlets in key areas to ensure consistent airflow throughout the home. This placement strategy ensures that no corner of the home is left uncooled or unheated.
  3. Energy-Saving Measures: To boost the unit's energy efficiency, we insulated the ducts thoroughly, minimizing any potential energy loss.
  4. Sound Dampening: One of the homeowner’s concerns was noise, so we implemented additional sound-dampening techniques to enhance the already quiet operation of the system.

The steps

The big day, step by step

The main steps of this kind of job at AirGreen. Every house has its quirks: the estimate brings them out.

Step 1 of 9The on-site estimate

We look at the ducts, the current indoor module, the electrical panel and the planned spot for the outdoor unit.

  1. The on-site estimateWe look at the ducts, the current indoor module, the electrical panel and the planned spot for the outdoor unit.
  2. The quoteThe equipment combination, capacity and price, in writing. We check whether the combination qualifies for assistance programs.
  3. Getting readyAccess protected, old unit disconnected and removed when it is being replaced.
  4. The indoor moduleElectric furnace or air handler, with its coil, connected to the supply and return ducts.
  5. The outdoor unitOn a level base, raised above the snow, with free space all around.
  6. The refrigerant linesInsulated, they enter through a sealed opening and run to the indoor coil.
  7. Electrical and thermostatDedicated circuits, accessible disconnect, a thermostat that works with the heat pump and the backup heat.
  8. Tests and start-upLeak test, vacuum, start-up, airflow check and a test of both modes.
  9. The walkthroughFilter, thermostat, backup heat in extreme cold: what to know before winter.
Your numbers

What would it look like at your place?

Two quick checks with real numbers: what heat costs, and what your current heaters add up to in BTU/h.

Size checkYour electric furnace, in BTU/h
–BTU/h of installed electric heat

    Conversion: 1 W = 3.412 BTU/h. An indication, not a load calculation: baseboards and furnaces are often stronger than the real need, and they can stay as backup. AirGreen confirms the capacity on site.

    Through the seasons

    What to do, season by season

    Three habits per season for this unit. They take a few minutes and prevent many calls.

    • Check the indoor module's filter.
    • Clear winter debris from the outdoor unit.
    • Test cooling before the heat arrives.
    At your place

    Is your home ready?

    Check what applies at your place. A "no" is not a refusal: it is what we sort out during the estimate.

    0 / 6 checked
    True or false

    Four statements: true or false?

    It all comes down to details you have just seen.

    1. A central heat pump uses the house's ducts.

    2. In extreme cold, electric backup heat can take over.

    3. The filter only gets changed when the unit breaks down.

    4. You can reuse the old unit's size without checking.

    Frequently asked questions

    What people ask us about this kind of work

    11 questions
    Can I keep my current ducts?
    Often, yes: the central heat pump connects to the existing ducts. We check their condition and size during the estimate.
    What happens in extreme cold?
    The indoor module (furnace or air handler) works with the central heat pump and takes over in extreme cold.
    Furnace, air handler, ducted: what is the difference?
    The furnace or air handler is the indoor module of the central system. A ducted system hides in the ceiling: all you see are small supply grilles.
    Are there grants?
    Depending on the equipment and your situation, assistance programs may apply. AirGreen checks the exact combination before quoting an amount. See the grants.
    Do I need a permit?
    Rules vary from city to city. See permits and by-laws, and we check for your address.
    How much can I save?
    Hydro-Québec says a heat pump can be up to three times more efficient than baseboards for heating in the colder months. The result depends on the house, the climate and how it is used.
    How is the LogisVert assistance calculated?
    For ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified heat pumps, Hydro-Québec lists assistance of $120 per 1,000 BTU/h of heating capacity at −8 °C. AirGreen checks the exact model before quoting an amount; only Hydro-Québec confirms the assistance granted. See the grants.
    Will my current thermostat work?
    Not always: the thermostat has to run the heat pump and the backup heat. We check compatibility during the estimate.
    Central or wall units: which one?
    If the house has ducts in good shape, a central system heats and cools every room at once. Without ducts, wall units or a multi-zone are often simpler. We compare on site.
    Does AirGreen hold the required licences?
    Yes. AirGreen holds RBQ licence 5645-9605-01, subclasses 15.8 Ventilation, 15.10 Refrigeration and 16 Electricity.
    Is the estimate free?
    Yes. The on-site estimate is free and the quote follows within 24 hours. Book my free estimate.
