Four-season comfort in the heart of Laval
At AirGreen , we recently installed a Sharp ZU1 wall-mounted heat pump in a condo located in Laval-des-Rapides , a neighborhood known for its modern buildings and unobstructed views of the Rivière des Prairies. This project perfectly illustrates our approach: a combination of technical expertise, respect for the environment, and optimization of energy comfort for our customers.
A thoughtful choice: the Sharp ZU1, a reliable and efficient model
The owner was looking for an efficient, discreet and quiet HVAC solution that could provide heating in the winter and cooling in the summer while controlling energy costs. After analyzing his needs, we recommended the Sharp ZU1 12,000 BTU , an energy-efficient model known for its performance down to −25 °C and its operation with R-32 refrigerant , which is more environmentally friendly.
The strong points of the Sharp ZU1 :
-
Exceptional energy efficiency (SEER greater than 22).
-
Reliable heating at very low temperatures.
-
Indoor noise level less than 22 dB.
-
Minimalist and clean finish, ideal for urban condos and apartments.
-
Eligibility for Quebec's energy-saving grant programs (Hydro-Québec and Transition Énergétique Québec).
A neat and optimized installation
Our team ensured that every step of the installation was perfectly suited to the client's space.
The indoor head was installed above a large window , ensuring even air distribution throughout the main room.
The refrigerant connections were carefully sheathed and capped , ensuring a clean and harmonious finish with the interior decor. The passage to the outside was made through the upper section of the wall, allowing natural gravity drainage without the need for a condensate pump, an asset in terms of reliability and silence.
The piping was precisely insulated to prevent any energy loss, while the wall seals were carried out according to the standards of the Quebec Building Code .
Challenges well mastered
Moving into a high-rise condo always involves certain technical constraints:
-
Limited access to the exterior.
-
Need to respect the rules of co-ownership.
-
Noise and vibration management.
Our technicians coordinated the intervention with the condominium association , planned the discreet wall outlet , and carried out a complete acoustic check to guarantee quiet operation both inside and outside.
Each step was carried out in compliance with RBQ , CCQ and CSA standards, ensuring a durable, safe and compliant installation.
A result that lives up to expectations
Upon switching on, the Sharp ZU1 immediately demonstrated its effectiveness:
-
Stable and uniform temperature throughout the living room.
-
No perceptible vibration.
-
Almost imperceptible noise level.
-
Discreet design that blends perfectly into the interior of the condo.
The customer particularly appreciated the simplicity of the Sharp Airest remote control and the system's rapid response to temperature changes.
