An efficient HVAC solution for the comfort of a brick home
At AirGreen , we have just completed a new Gree wall-mounted heat pump installation in the residential sector of Saint-Laurent, Montreal . This intervention perfectly illustrates our expertise in HVAC installation in the residential areas of Greater Montreal, where heating and air conditioning needs combine with space and aesthetic constraints.
Project background
The client, a brick homeowner, wanted a modern, high-performance energy solution to replace an old air conditioning system that had become noisy and energy-intensive. We recommended a Gree Inverter wall-mounted heat pump , renowned for its reliability, efficient heating even at low temperatures, and its eligibility for energy subsidy programs available in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, as well as on the North and South Shores.
Technical details of the installation
The installation took place at the back of the house, under a sliding window, an ideal location to protect the condenser from the elements while facilitating maintenance. Here are the highlights of the installation:
-
Machine type : Gree single-zone wall-mounted heat pump (Inverter).
-
Support : outdoor unit fixed on sturdy wall brackets, allowing optimal clearance from the ground to avoid snow accumulation in winter.
-
Wiring and refrigeration connections : discreet passage under white capping adapted to the brick, guaranteeing aesthetic integration and protection against UV and humidity.
-
Electrical connection : secure installation via a disconnect box, in compliance with Quebec electrical standards.
-
Condensate management : gravity drainage, which simplifies maintenance and reduces the risk of pump breakdowns.
Challenges and solutions
One of the main challenges of this installation was the close proximity to a window. We carefully positioned the outdoor unit to ensure both convenient access for maintenance and optimal air circulation. Another challenge was managing the refrigeration connections along the brick wall: our team used white capping to harmonize the installation, protect the ducts, and extend the overall durability.
Results for the client
The customer now benefits from:
-
Four-season comfort thanks to an efficient heat pump for summer air conditioning and winter heating.
-
A significant reduction in energy consumption, particularly in heating mode compared to the old system.
-
A discreet, secure and aesthetic installation that enhances your property.
-
Access to provincial and federal grant programs , which significantly reduce the initial investment.
