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

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

Generic illustration of this type of installation, not a survey of this job site. Tap a number.

  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.

An integration perfectly adapted to restricted spaces

In the Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie neighborhood of Montreal , we recently completed the installation of aSharp wall-mounted heat pump , chosen by a client living in a renovated duplex. This project is a good example of how a professional HVAC installation can transform indoor comfort, even in tight spaces where every inch counts.

Installation context

The client wanted an energy-efficient and quiet solution to provide both heating in the winter and air conditioning in the summer. The layout of their apartment posed a challenge: a narrow hallway and limited headroom, typical of Montreal plexes.

It is in this context that we recommended the Sharp wall-mounted heat pump , renowned for:

  • Its compact design, ideal for confined spaces.

  • Its stable performance even in cold weather.

  • Its reliability and ease of maintenance.

Technical details and implementation

The indoor unit was carefully installed above a partitioned passageway , requiring clean cutting and precise management of the ductwork.

  • Minimal drilling of walls to preserve aesthetics.

  • Insulated refrigeration connections , ensuring optimal performance and increased longevity.

  • Gravity management of condensates , possible thanks to the installation height.

  • Use of concealed wiring for a clean and discreet appearance.

Results for the client

From the moment it was put into operation, the Sharp heat pump demonstrated its ability to provide fresh and constant air throughout the corridor, allowing efficient distribution to adjacent rooms. The client appreciated the unit's quiet sound and the simple control via remote control .

Benefits of a Sharp heat pump in a Montreal home

  • Four-season comfort : efficient heating down to low temperatures and responsive air conditioning in summer.

  • Energy savings : significant cost reduction compared to old traditional electrical systems.

  • Grant Eligibility : Several Sharp wall-mounted models meet the criteria for provincial and federal financial assistance programs.

  • Installation suitable for plexes and condos : ideal for tight spaces without loss of efficiency.

AirGreen expertise serving Montrealers

At AirGreen , we know that every project is unique. Our RBQ-certified installers take into account:

  • Architectural constraints (narrow spaces, reduced passages).

  • The customer's specific needs (silence, savings, performance).

  • The strictest HVAC standards for maximum safety and durability.

Thanks to our support, the Rosemont customer now benefits from a reliable, energy-efficient and discreet system , perfectly integrated into their interior.

Conclusion

This installation perfectly illustrates the importance of combining appropriate technology and professional expertise . The Sharp wall-mounted heat pump is a wise choice for Montreal homes looking to maximize comfort and savings in sometimes constrained environments.

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.
