Installation of a Gree wall-mounted heat pump in the Southwest district (Montreal)

For this project, our AirGreen team worked in a modern condo in Montreal's Southwest borough . The owners had just renovated their space: white walls, recessed lighting, polished concrete floors. Only one thing was missing to complete the comfort: a high-performance, discreet, and economical heating and cooling system.

We recommended they install a Gree wall-mounted heat pump , an ideal single-zone solution for this type of partially open-plan urban dwelling.

A strategic positioning at the heart of traffic

The Gree indoor unit is installed high on a circulation wall , between a side window and the opening leading to the rest of the condo. This location was not chosen at random:

• the blower can push air along the corridor and towards adjacent rooms;

• the device remains perfectly clear : no furniture or obstacle in front, which ensures optimal diffusion;

• the height allows for a homogeneous mixing of warm air in winter and cool air in summer ;

• The unit integrates naturally into the minimalist architecture: smooth wall, discreet electrical outlets, recessed spotlights in the ceiling.

A high ventilation grille is also visible nearby, contributing to good overall air circulation within the unit. The result: a central comfort zone that serves as the thermal heart of the condo.

Choosing a Gree wall-mounted heat pump

For this project, we opted for a new generation Gree wall-mounted heat pump , approximately 12,000 BTU, perfectly sized for:

• efficiently heat the main living space;

• cooling the condo during Montreal heat waves;

• limit energy consumption thanks to high-efficiency inverter technology.

With this type of device, owners benefit from:

• of a very economical heating system compared to electric baseboard heaters;

• quiet air conditioning in summer, without the bulk of a window air conditioner;

• of a stable temperature thanks to continuous power modulation;

• four-season comfort, adapted to harsh Quebec winters .

The heat pump quickly becomes the main source of heating and cooling for the condo, with other systems only intervening as needed during extreme cold weather.

A clean, discreet and durable installation

In an urban condo, aesthetics are just as important as performance. Therefore, we paid particular attention to every detail:

• The refrigeration lines and communication cables run behind the unit, so as to keep the wall perfectly clean.

• The outward drilling was positioned to minimize the path of the connections, reduce pressure losses and limit the visual impact on the outside.

• The condensate drain is installed with an adequate slope, to reliably remove water without risk of drips on the wall or floor.

• The Gree external condenser (not visible in the photo) is fixed on a stable support with anti-vibration pads , to reduce noise and vibrations transmitted to the structure.

Before commissioning, we systematically perform the following:

• a complete evacuation of the refrigeration circuit;

• checking the electrical connections and the dedicated circuit breaker;

• comprehensive heating and air conditioning tests;

• adjusting operating parameters according to the needs of the occupants.

This rigorous approach guarantees a reliable, quiet system ready to provide years of service.

Four-season comfort in a Southwest condo

In a neighborhood like Le Sud-Ouest , where condos and semi-open-concept lofts are numerous, a Gree wall-mounted heat pump makes all the difference:

• In winter , the unit provides gentle and consistent heat. Warm air spreads along the corridor and into adjacent rooms, reducing the feeling of cold spots.

• In summer , the air conditioning mode quickly lowers the temperature and reduces humidity, without aggressive drafts.

• In the mid-season, the dehumidification function helps to improve comfort even when the outside temperature is not very high.

Thanks to their unobstructed positioning on the wall, the motorized shutters can optimally direct the airflow. Occupants can thus fine-tune the temperature according to their lifestyle: working from home, evenings at home, visits from friends, etc.

An investment that reduces the energy bill

Beyond comfort, the homeowners also aimed to reduce their energy costs . They achieved this by replacing much of the work done by electric baseboard heaters with a Gree heat pump.

• a significant portion of the annual heating is provided by a much more efficient system;

• air conditioning no longer requires the purchase and seasonal installation of window units;

• The value of the condo is enhanced by the presence of modern and sought-after equipment in the real estate market.

Over several years, the savings made help to amortize the investment, while increasing daily comfort.
