Generic diagram: wall-mounted heat pump, indoor and outdoor units

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

  1. Mounted level on a wall plate, high enough for the air to reach the whole room, with enough space around it to slide the filters out easily.

  2. The refrigerant lines, the communication cable and the drain go through the wall in a single opening, sealed against water, cold air and insects.

  3. Two insulated copper pipes connect the two units. Outside, a line cover can protect them from sun, knocks and weather.

  4. A shut-off switch near the outdoor unit isolates it safely for service. It must stay accessible at all times.

  5. The compressor and the fan. In heating mode it captures heat from the outdoor air, even in winter, and moves it inside.

  6. On the ground or on the wall, it keeps the unit above accumulated snow. The unit stays clear and defrost water can drain away.

  7. The fan needs to blow freely. Storage, a fence or a wall too close, and efficiency drops while noise goes up.

Four-season comfort in a bright South Shore condo

In Brossard, many modern condos feature large windows, providing exceptional brightness but also presenting challenges in terms of thermal comfort. In this project, our AirGreen team installed a Fujitsu wall-mounted heat pump in the living room of a condo to ensure a perfect balance between air conditioning in the summer and supplemental heating in the winter.

Why a Fujitsu wall-mounted heat pump?

The Fujitsu brand has established itself as a preferred choice for residents of Greater Montreal thanks to:

  • Excellent energy performance (high SEER and HSPF).

  • Reliable operation even at very low temperatures (down to -25°C).

  • A compact and elegant design, ideal for modern interiors.

  • Quiet operation that respects occupant comfort.

Background and location of the indoor unit

The unit was installed at a corner, near a large French window. This positioning allows for optimal air diffusion in the main room, while respecting space constraints. The unit is located close to the ceiling, ensuring good circulation and a harmonious aesthetic integration into a simple and bright decor.

Installation procedure and technical details

  • Machine type: Fujitsu wall-mounted heat pump.

  • Capacity: approximately 12,000 BTU, suitable for living room air volumes.

  • Fixing: secure wall bracket on interior wall.

  • Condensate drainage: gravity route to the outside, avoiding the addition of a pump.

  • Refrigeration connection: pipes protected by white capping, discreetly integrated into the wall.

  • Electrical wiring: installation of a dedicated line compliant with Quebec electrical standards.

The technicians used a ladder and specialized tools to ensure a clean, precise job without damaging the wall covering.

Challenges and solutions provided

  1. Proximity to the French window: we chose an installation angle that does not obstruct the light and facilitates the passage of pipes.

  2. Interior aesthetics: the white capping matching the walls ensures discreet integration.

Thanks to these choices, the device blends perfectly into the decor while maximizing its efficiency.

Immediate benefits for the customer

  • Four-season comfort : efficient air conditioning in summer, additional heating in winter.

  • Energy savings : Inverter technology optimizes electricity consumption.

  • Grant eligibility : Fujitsu heat pumps meet the criteria for financial assistance programs such as LogisVert or certain Hydro-Québec credits.

  • Peace of mind and reliability : extended warranty offered by the manufacturer and full support from AirGreen.

A result that lives up to expectations

The client now benefits from a high-performance, energy-efficient and sustainable HVAC system, perfectly suited to their urban lifestyle. The installation was completed in one day, including commissioning and user instructions provided by our technicians.

At AirGreen, each project is an opportunity to demonstrate our expertise and our ability to adapt to the real constraints of housing in the metropolitan area. This project in Brossard perfectly illustrates our approach: combining technical performance , aesthetics and customer satisfaction .

The steps

How it goes, from the first call to the end

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 room, the outside wall, the line route and where the outdoor unit will go. That is where the capacity gets chosen.

  1. The on-site estimateWe look at the room, the outside wall, the line route and where the outdoor unit will go. That is where the capacity gets chosen.
  2. The quoteModel, capacity and price, in writing. We also check whether the model qualifies for assistance programs.
  3. Getting readyFloors and furniture protected, wall plate position marked level, wall opening located.
  4. The wall openingA single opening, with the slope the drain needs to flow outside.
  5. The outdoor unitSet on a stand raised above the snow, with the clearances the manufacturer requires.
  6. Lines, cable and drainConnected, insulated and protected. The opening is then sealed against water, cold air and insects.
  7. The electrical workA dedicated circuit and an accessible disconnect near the outdoor unit.
  8. Tests and start-upLeak test, vacuum, then start-up and a check of heating and cooling.
  9. The walkthroughRemote, modes, filters: we show you the essentials before we leave.
Your numbers

And 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 baseboards, 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.

    • Clean the indoor unit's filters.
    • Clear leaves and debris left on the outdoor unit by winter.
    • Test cooling before the first hot days.

    Frequently asked questions

    What people ask us about this kind of work

    12 questions
    Does a wall-mounted heat pump heat in winter?
    Yes, it heats and cools. Its capacity drops in very cold weather; the operating range depends on the model and is listed on its spec sheet.
    Wall-mounted or multi-zone: how do I choose?
    One wall head and one condenser outside: the direct solution for a room or an open area. For two to five rooms, a multi-zone puts one head in each room on a single condenser.
    Where does the outdoor unit go?
    Where it stays above the snow, clear and accessible, away from walkways. We decide it with you during the estimate.
    Are there grants?
    Depending on the model and your situation, assistance programs may apply, including Hydro-Québec's LogisVert. AirGreen checks the model number before quoting an amount. See the grants.
    Do I need a permit?
    Rules vary from city to city: location, distances, noise. See permits and by-laws, and we check for your address.
    How cold can it heat?
    It depends on the model. According to Hydro-Québec, newer models work down to a temperature between −15 °C and −25 °C, and some cold-climate models are certified lower. The minimum temperature is on each unit's spec sheet.
    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.
    Is it noisy?
    The sound level depends on the model and is listed in decibels on each unit's spec sheet. Location matters too: when possible, we avoid putting the outdoor unit under a bedroom window.
    The outdoor unit is covered in ice: is that normal?
    Some frost is: the unit runs defrost cycles. Never hit the ice. If the unit stays iced up or stops heating, call us.
    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.
