Comfort and performance in a Laval duplex
At AirGreen , we recently installed a Gree wall-mounted heat pump in a duplex in the Chomedey neighborhood of Laval . The owner was looking for a reliable solution to ensure four-season comfort while reducing his dependence on electric baseboard heaters. The Gree unit chosen combines modern design, an integrated digital display, and performance certified for the Quebec climate.
The advantages of a Gree wall-mounted heat pump
The Gree range is renowned for its durable and efficient equipment. This wall-mounted model with a capacity of 12,000 BTUs is particularly suitable for medium-sized rooms, such as a living room or dining room.
-
High efficiency : Energy Star rated, the machine maintains its performance even in extreme cold.
-
Integrated digital display : The front screen allows instant monitoring of settings and operation.
-
Quiet in operation : ideal in an urban residential context.
-
Grant eligibility : meets the criteria of programs available on the North Shore, South Shore, Laval and Montreal.
Installation Steps
-
Space Assessment
The indoor unit was installed above a large window overlooking the front of the duplex. This position ensures optimal air distribution while respecting the necessary clearances. -
Drilling and passing lines
A discreet hole was made to route the refrigeration and electrical connections to the exterior. The short route helped limit heat loss and ensure a neat installation. -
Condensate management
The drainage was designed to operate by gravity, thus avoiding the use of an additional pump. -
Outdoor installation and connection
The outdoor condenser was installed on an existing concrete slab, with anti-vibration mounts to limit noise transmission to immediate neighbors. -
Commissioning
AirGreen technicians evacuated the lines, checked the system for leaks, and adjusted the refrigerant level. The unit was calibrated to ensure optimal operation from day one.
Constraints and solutions provided
-
Visibility of the indoor unit : In a room with many windows, aesthetics are essential. The Gree unit, with its sleek design and discreet display, blends naturally into the space.
-
Water drainage management : the slope of the drainage pipe has been optimized to avoid any risk of moisture accumulation or return.
Results observed
Upon startup, the owner noted:
-
immediate freshness in air conditioning mode,
-
a noticeable reduction in noise compared to their old portable air conditioner,
-
and the certainty that their electricity bills will decrease next winter thanks to the superior efficiency of the heat pump.
