As part of a recent residential project in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie , our AirGreen team installed a new-generation Gree wall-mounted heat pump , perfectly suited to the typical urban buildings of this Montreal neighbourhood. This type of project exemplifies our approach: a high-performance, discreet, and durable HVAC solution designed for year-round comfort and the realities of Quebec's climate.
A dense urban area that requires precise installation
Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie is characterized by masonry buildings, narrow rear balconies, shared courtyards, and very real space constraints. The photos clearly show a stone/brick facade, a wooden balcony, and a vertical layout typical of Montreal plexes.
In this context, the choice of location for the outdoor unit was crucial:
-
adequate clearance for air circulation,
-
respecting the required distances,
-
vibration and noise reduction,
-
harmonious visual integration with the existing building.
We therefore opted for an installation on reinforced wall brackets , securely anchored in the structure, in order to free up floor space while protecting the device from the accumulation of snow and water.
Type of system installed: wall-mounted heat pump (mini-split)
The chosen system is a Gree wall-mounted heat pump , a mini-split format particularly popular in Montreal for condos, duplexes, and triplexes. This type of unit allows for:
-
heating in winter (even in cold weather),
-
efficient air conditioning in summer ,
-
reduced energy consumption
-
precise temperature control room by room.
The configuration observed (compact outdoor unit with stacked fans and refrigerant lines discreetly routed inside) corresponds perfectly to a standard residential wall installation , optimized for urban housing.
Brand: Gree (global leader in HVAC)
The Gree brand is recognized worldwide for the reliability of its residential air conditioning and heating systems. With a strong presence in the Canadian market, it distinguishes itself by:
-
robust inverter compressors,
-
excellent energy efficiency
-
technologies adapted to North American winters,
-
Excellent value for money.
At AirGreen, we regularly install Gree systems, particularly for projects where performance, durability and long-term stability are priorities.
Installed model: Gree wall-mounted heat pump – high-efficiency residential range
Although the exact model is not legible in the images, the observed configuration corresponds to a Gree residential high-efficiency wall-mounted heat pump , compatible with current standards (modern refrigerant, quiet operation, high efficiency).
These models are generally available in several power ratings (9,000 to 24,000 BTU), allowing for precise adjustment of the capacity according to:
-
the living area,
-
building insulation,
-
orientation and sunlight,
-
the actual needs of the occupants.
Prominent installation details observed
This installation in Rosemont has several notable technical features:
-
Galvanized steel wall brackets , designed to reduce vibrations
-
Refrigerant lines are protected and neatly integrated into the facade.
-
Optimal clearance around the outdoor unit to maximize efficiency
-
Waterproof electrical box installed nearby, compliant with standards
-
Elevated installation , ideal for narrow backyards and snowy areas
Every detail has been designed to ensure the system's longevity, safety, and quiet operation, even during periods of high demand.
Four-season comfort, summer and winter
A properly installed Gree wall-mounted heat pump allows you to:
-
stable heating throughout autumn, winter and spring,
-
rapid and uniform air conditioning during summer heat waves,
-
a significant reduction in energy costs compared to traditional electrical systems,
-
an improvement in interior comfort without major construction work.
For residents of Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie, it is an ideal solution to modernize a home while respecting the architectural character of the neighbourhood.
