In this project, our AirGreen team moved into a cozy ground-floor apartment in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie to modernize the homeowners' comfort. Their goal was clear: reduce reliance on electric baseboard heaters, improve summer air conditioning, and obtain reliable heating for Montreal winters, all without altering the appearance of the main living space.
We suggested they install a Gree wall-mounted heat pump , a high-performance and discreet single-zone system, perfectly suited to open living areas like this one.
A central location for maximum comfort
The indoor unit was installed high up on a central wall separating the entrance and the kitchen . This choice was not insignificant:
-
The blower can sweep through the living room, the entrance hall, and the kitchen all at once .
-
Warm air in winter and cool air in summer are distributed evenly.
-
The device remains discreet, well integrated into the partition already occupied by existing thermostats and controls.
The Gree wall unit, with its sleek, glossy white design, complements the light walls and contemporary finish of the house. Motorized louvers automatically direct airflow towards passageways, preventing direct drafts on the sofa or dining table.
Choosing the Gree wall-mounted heat pump
We recommended a new generation Gree wall-mounted heat pump, approximately 12,000 BTU , sized to comfortably cover the main living area of this Rosemont home.
With this type of device, owners benefit from:
-
efficient and economical heating for a good part of the winter,
-
of silent air conditioning during Montreal's heat waves,
-
with an inverter system that automatically modulates the power to maintain a stable temperature without sudden variations,
-
reduced consumption compared to electric baseboards, thanks to a very good performance ratio (COP).
The wall-mounted remote control and the electronic controls already installed on the partition allow for easy management of the temperature and operating modes (heating, cooling, dehumidification, ventilation). This gives the customer precise control room by room while making the heat pump the primary source of comfort in the living area.
A carefully designed installation, built to last.
Even though we only see the interior unit here, the care taken in the installation extends beyond the wall and to the exterior:
-
The refrigeration lines pass through an optimized drilling behind the unit, minimizing the visual impact inside;
-
The communication and power wiring is neatly integrated, in coordination with the electrical boxes already present on the partition;
-
Outside, the Gree condensing unit is installed on anti-vibration supports and pads , slightly raised off the ground to avoid snow accumulation;
-
Condensate drainage is managed safely to prevent any infiltration or trace of water inside.
As always at AirGreen, we checked:
-
electrical compliance and protection by a dedicated circuit breaker,
-
the complete evacuation of the refrigeration circuit,
-
proper functioning in both heating and air conditioning systems
-
the actual sound level in the room once the installation is complete.
The result: a silent system, no perceptible vibration in the partition, and comfort felt from the moment it is switched on.
Tangible benefits for homeowners
From the very first days of use, customers notice:
-
a more consistent temperature between the kitchen, the entrance and the living room;
-
a reduction in the use of electric baseboard heaters , particularly during the off-season;
-
a more pleasant humidity level in summer, thanks to the air conditioning and dehumidification mode;
-
better control of comfort when coming and going through the back door, a point often considered cold in houses of this type.
The Gree wall-mounted heat pump thus becomes the heart of the home's comfort system, while the existing emitters only take over during periods of extreme cold.
