Careful installation for optimal comfort
At AirGreen , we know that a well-chosen and properly installed wall-mounted air conditioner makes all the difference in the daily comfort of families in Greater Montreal. Today, we're sharing a project in the Saint-Laurent area, where we installed a Daikin wall-mounted air conditioner in a modern condo. This type of residence requires special attention, particularly due to the limited space and technical access.
Choosing the Daikin brand
The Daikin brand is recognized worldwide for the reliability and durability of its air conditioning and heating systems. The unit installed in Saint-Laurent is Energy Star-rated, meeting the energy efficiency criteria required in Quebec. The owners wanted a discreet, quiet, and efficient solution, ideal for use at all times, whether in the height of summer or during winter thaws.
Technical details of the installation
In this project, our team installed a wall-mounted indoor unit, positioned high up in an alcove. Here are some key technical details:
-
Machine type: single zone wall-mounted air conditioner.
-
Location: central wall, near a corridor, allowing balanced air diffusion in the space.
-
Condensation: gravity drainage, facilitated by an adequate inclination of the pipes.
-
Refrigeration piping: optimized passage to minimize lengths and avoid any loss of performance.
-
Aesthetics: discreetly integrated connections, respecting the interior layout of the condo.
The alcove required special precision: positioning it too low would have restricted airflow, while an improperly adjusted angle would have resulted in poor air conditioning distribution. Thanks to our expertise, we found the ideal compromise.
The challenges encountered
Every project has its own specificities. In this specific case, two major constraints arose:
-
Limited space: The sloping wall above the unit reduced the room to maneuver. We had to precisely adjust the wall bracket to ensure a secure fit and good airflow.
-
Pipe routing: In a condo, it's essential to limit drilling and respect the building's structure. We used an optimized route, discreetly crossing the wall to reach the outdoor unit located on the rear balcony.
Benefits for the customer
The final result perfectly meets the owners' expectations:
-
Immediate comfort thanks to even air diffusion.
-
Quiet operation , a criterion particularly appreciated in a condo.
-
Energy savings with an Energy Star certified appliance.
-
Discreet installation that blends harmoniously into the interior design.
In addition, this installation is eligible for provincial grant programs (notably Hydro-Québec and LogisVert), allowing the net cost of the project to be significantly reduced.
The importance of a professional installation
A quality wall-mounted air conditioner only performs at its best when properly installed. An incorrect drain slope, an excessively long cooling path, or improper positioning can reduce the unit's efficiency and cause premature breakdowns. At AirGreen, every detail is checked: mounting, tightness of connections, calibration, start-up, and user instructions provided to the customer.
Customer Testimonial
The owner told us at the end of the work:
"We were hesitating between several brands, but AirGreen's support reassured us. The installation was quick, clean, and the comfort was immediate. We highly recommend their services."
