An efficient HVAC solution adapted to the realities of Montreal's residential sector
In the Saint-Léonard neighborhood, known for its semi-detached residences and typical brick buildings, our AirGreen team recently installed a Friedrich Inverter wall-mounted heat pump . This intervention perfectly illustrates our approach: combining technical expertise, judicious choice of equipment, and adaptation to the specific constraints of each property in Greater Montreal.
The Friedrich Inverter heat pump is designed to provide consistent comfort for both heating and cooling. Its modulating operation reduces energy consumption, a major advantage for homeowners concerned about their electricity bills and carbon footprint.
Choosing the right equipment: the Friedrich Inverter heat pump
Why Friedrich?
The Friedrich brand is less widespread than some competitors, but it remains recognized for the robustness and reliability of its HVAC equipment. The model installed here, equipped with Inverter technology, continuously adjusts the compressor power according to actual demand. Result:
-
Stable comfort without sudden temperature variations.
-
Optimized energy efficiency , with reduced consumption.
-
Increased durability through reduced on/off cycles.
Adapting to the Montreal climate
This heat pump is capable of operating efficiently even during the colder periods common in winter in Montreal, Laval, and the North Shore. For homeowners, this means less reliance on backup heating, resulting in substantial savings.
Details of the installation carried out in Saint-Léonard
Wall mount and setup
The outdoor compressor was installed on sturdy wall brackets , fixed directly to the brick facade. This configuration offers several advantages:
-
Optimal ground clearance, reducing the risks associated with snow accumulation.
-
Better air circulation around the unit.
-
Ease of future maintenance, without risk of obstruction by vegetation.
Connections and protection
Our technicians carried out:
-
The installation of a refrigeration circuit protected by discreet capping and harmonized with the facade.
-
The installation of a dedicated electrical box , perfectly positioned near the compressor.
-
Gravity-based condensate management, simplifying maintenance and avoiding the risk of backflow.
Challenges and solutions
The brick facade of this property presented a technical challenge: it was necessary to ensure perfect watertightness when drilling for the pipes. Our team used suitable insulating sleeves and weatherstripping to ensure long-lasting insulation, essential to prevent any air or moisture infiltration.
Concrete benefits for the customer
Following this installation, the customer now benefits from:
-
Four-season comfort , with a single system for heating and cooling.
