Modern comfort in the heart of Montreal cuisine
At AirGreen , we transform each HVAC installation into a personalized solution, adapted to the architecture and lifestyle of Greater Montreal residents. Recently, our team installed an LG Dual Inverter wall-mounted heat pump in a duplex kitchen located in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie . The goal: to provide stable thermal comfort while respecting the space constraints of a room where every inch counts.
Context of the project in Rosemont
The owner of a typical duplex in the area contacted us to upgrade his HVAC system. The space to be air conditioned and heated was located in the kitchen, an environment where heat and humidity can quickly become uncomfortable.
The old portable air conditioner consumed too much energy and didn't provide effective temperature regulation. Choosing an LG wall-mounted heat pump was therefore an ideal solution: small footprint, high energy efficiency, and quiet operation.
Technical specifications of the LG Dual Inverter
-
Type : Wall-mounted heat pump (mini-split)
-
Brand : LG
-
Model : Dual Inverter (Energy Star certified range)
-
Capacity : 9,000 BTU (enough for a kitchen and adjoining space of 350 to 400 sq. ft.)
-
Performance : High SEER2, HSPF2 optimized for Quebec winters
-
Key technology : Dual Inverter compressor providing quieter operation and reduced energy consumption
Installation process
Main steps
-
Assessment and preparation : We chose a high location, above the kitchen cabinets, to free up wall space and optimize air circulation.
-
Wall drilling : discreet passage of refrigerant connections and electrical wiring to the outside, with white capping to match the walls.
-
Indoor Unit Mounting : LG wall head installation with precise clearance to avoid interference with cabinets.
-
Connection to the external compressor : positioned on a wall bracket at the rear of the duplex to limit noise pollution and ensure good condensate drainage.
-
Calibration and testing : pressure verification, gravity drainage control and complete performance testing.
Constraints encountered and solutions
-
Proximity to cabinets : The unit had to be installed directly above tall cabinets, requiring increased precision to ensure easy access to the front panel and optimal airflow clearance.
-
Condensate management : the limited space required carefully planned gravity drainage to avoid any accumulation of water near kitchen units.
Results for the client
The owner now benefits from:
-
Stable thermal comfort in summer and winter.
-
A quiet appliance, ideal for family cooking.
-
A significant reduction in the electricity bill , thanks to Inverter technology.
-
An aesthetic solution , perfectly integrated into a restricted space.
In addition, the LG Dual Inverter model is eligible for local subsidies (Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, North Shore, South Shore), which further reduces the net cost of the project.
Maintenance and durability
To maximize the life of your LG heat pump:
-
Filters should be cleaned every 2 to 3 months , especially in a kitchen where the air contains more particles.
-
A complete annual maintenance by AirGreen is recommended: checking the outdoor compressor, cleaning the coils, inspecting the refrigerant and calibrating the system.
