A discreet and efficient HVAC solution for a Montreal duplex
At AirGreen , we regularly work in typical Montreal buildings where space is limited and every detail counts. In this project in the Rosemont district, we installed a Sharp wall-mounted heat pump , perfectly suited to the constraints of an urban duplex with a narrow entrance and a bright stairwell.
Project background
The client wanted to modernize their heating and air conditioning system to improve the comfort of their home while taking advantage of the subsidies available in Quebec . The main challenge was the limited space near the entrance: the indoor unit had to be integrated high up, without hindering traffic flow or aesthetics.
Choice of equipment: Sharp, a guarantee of reliability
The Sharp wall-mounted heat pump is one of the most popular models for its reliability and performance in cold climates. Capable of operating efficiently down to -25°C, it perfectly meets the needs of Montreal homes. Its inverter technology helps maintain a stable temperature while reducing energy consumption.
Among the advantages:
-
High energy efficiency with excellent SEER2/HSPF2.
-
Quiet operation , ideal for apartments.
-
Compact and modern design , discreet in a narrow corridor.
-
Compatibility with provincial and federal grant programs .
Installation process
Our technicians began by attaching the wall-mounted fan head above the front door. This strategic positioning allows for even air distribution while freeing up floor space. The installation height required the use of a professional stepladder and precision tools to ensure perfect alignment.
-
Discreet drilling of the exterior wall for the passage of refrigeration connections.
-
Wiring and piping routed neatly along the wall with matching white capping.
-
Gravity connection of the condensate drain , thus avoiding the addition of a pump and simplifying future maintenance.
-
Complete commissioning tests : leak-tightness of connections, vacuum, pressure verification and electronic calibration.
Technical constraints and solutions
The main challenge was the very limited space in the entrance. Our installers chose a high-mounted installation to avoid any obstruction of the door and optimize air circulation. In addition, special care was taken to route the pipes so that they remained invisible from the main room.
Result and benefits for the customer
The customer now benefits from:
-
Increased comfort in summer and winter , with a stable temperature in all seasons.
-
Reduced energy bills , thanks to better efficiency compared to its old system.
-
With a successful aesthetic integration , the wall unit blends perfectly into the decor.
-
Peace of mind , with the AirGreen guarantee and Sharp reliability.
