Installation of a Gree wall-mounted heat pump in Brossard

When this Brossard family contacted us, their goal was clear: to improve comfort in their main living room year-round, while preserving the room's aesthetics. They opted for a Gree wall-mounted heat pump , the ideal solution for a single-family home on the South Shore that experiences both the heat waves of July and the biting cold of January.

Our AirGreen team therefore carried out the complete installation of a Gree wall unit in the living room overlooking the backyard, for a result that is efficient, discreet and perfectly adapted to the climatic reality of Greater Montreal.

Context of the residency in Brossard

The residence is typical of Brossard's residential neighborhoods:

• Single-family home with backyard and wooden deck

• Large patio door leading outside

• Main living area with standard ceiling, light and uncluttered walls

These characteristics directly influence the design of a comfort system. The patio door lets in a lot of light… and heat in the summer, but also heat loss in the winter. Therefore, it was necessary to:

• A system capable of rapidly cooling the volume of the room during heat waves;

• An efficient low-temperature heating technology, to reduce dependence on the main heating system;

• A visually discreet installation, without visible pipes or bulky floor-standing appliances.

The Gree wall-mounted heat pump perfectly met these requirements.

Why choose a Gree wall-mounted heat pump?

Gree wall systems are known for:

• Their high energy efficiency , thanks to Inverter technology;

• Their ability to ensure stable heating even in very cold weather is a major issue on the South Shore;

• Their quiet operation makes them ideal for a living room or family area;

• Their simple and compact design blends easily into a light-colored wall, as seen in the photo.

For this project, we opted for a Gree wall-mounted heat pump from the recent residential range , around 12,000 BTU , perfectly sized for a medium-sized open-plan living room, while offering some leeway during temperature extremes.

Strategic positioning of the wall unit

The photo shows the Gree indoor unit installed high up, near the ceiling , centered on the main wall and close to the patio door:

• This position allows the blown air to sweep across the entire room , then descend naturally, ensuring a homogeneous distribution of temperature.

• Placed away from obstacles (high furniture, beams, protrusions), the unit benefits from optimal air circulation .

• The proximity of the patio door also facilitates the management of heat gain in summer: fresh air is directed to where the sun hits the most.

We have also ensured sufficient clearance above the device , which improves performance and simplifies future maintenance (filter cleaning, inspection).

Passage through conduits and meticulous finishing

Behind this clean, minimalist result lies meticulous work:

• The refrigerant lines (insulated copper), condensation drain and wiring were run directly behind the unit , through the exterior wall, to join the Gree condenser installed in the yard.

• The drilling was carried out with a slight controlled slope to allow the natural drainage of condensate , avoiding any risk of water backing up into the house.

• All penetrations have been carefully sealed and insulated to eliminate air and moisture infiltration.

Outside, the conduit route is protected by a cover (gutter) harmonized with the color of the coating, ensuring a clean finish that respects the aesthetics of the rear facade.

Electrical connections and commissioning

A high-performance wall-mounted heat pump requires flawless connections. Our certified technicians have:

• Verified the electrical panel capacity and installed the dedicated circuit breaker required by the Gree heat pump's power.

• Connected the power supply in accordance with the standards in force in Quebec.

• A complete vacuum was performed on the refrigeration circuit before opening the valves, in order to eliminate residual moisture and air in the lines.

• Pressurization process, leak tests and verification of operating parameters (pressure, current, blown temperatures).

The final commissioning was accompanied by a training session with the occupants : basic settings, use of heating, air conditioning, dehumidification modes, programming, and best practices to maximize the lifespan of the heat pump.

Four-season comfort for a Brossard family

Thanks to this installation, the family now enjoys:

• Fast and quiet cooling during hot days on the South Shore, without relying solely on a noisy and energy-intensive window air conditioner.

• It provides very efficient supplementary heating in spring and autumn, and is a valuable support in winter to reduce reliance on the main heating system.

• Improved air quality thanks to the filters in the wall unit and the constant air circulation in the living room.

The unit's unobstructed position on the main wall prevents direct drafts on the sofa or dining table, while ensuring a consistent temperature. The room, previously prone to temperature fluctuations due to the large patio door, is now stable, comfortable, and inviting at all times .
