A project for energy efficiency and daily comfort
At AirGreen , each HVAC installation project is an opportunity to offer our clients an indoor environment better suited to their needs, while respecting the specific features of their home. Recently, we completed the installation of a Goodman wall-mounted heat pump in a condo in the Laval-des-Rapides sector, a neighborhood known for its modern and practical buildings, where wall-mounted solutions are particularly sought after.
Project background
The client, the owner of a recently renovated condo, wanted to improve the comfort of his main entrance, which was often exposed to the winter cold and summer heat. His goal: an efficient, quiet, and aesthetic solution that wouldn't encroach on the already limited space. The chosen option was a Goodman wall-mounted heat pump , renowned for its reliability and excellent value for money.
Technical details of the installation
-
Type of equipment : Wall-mounted heat pump (mini-split).
-
Brand : Goodman.
-
Capacity : 12,000 BTU, ideal for open spaces or transitional areas such as a living room or entryway.
-
Integrated digital display : Temperature directly visible on the unit (set to 25°C at the time of testing).
-
Condensate drainage : Discreet gravity installation, allowing minimal maintenance.
-
Refrigeration path : Short distance between the indoor and outdoor unit, reducing efficiency losses.
-
Optimized wall mount : The unit was installed above a coat rack, optimizing space while ensuring good air circulation.
-
Added accessories : Remote control mounted on the wall near the door, easy to access on a daily basis.
Challenges encountered and solutions provided
-
Limited installation height : The chosen wall already had a door and a built-in locker. Our team positioned the unit just above it, ensuring a safe height and optimal air distribution.
-
Blockage Prevention : Hanging coats could have reduced airflow. We installed the heat pump with a slight offset and adjusted the louver angle , ensuring even distribution throughout the room.
-
Aesthetics and discretion : In a condo, visual integration is crucial. Choosing a compact Goodman model and using white capping allowed for a clean and discreet finish.
