Four-season comfort in the heart of Rosemont, by AirGreen
In this charming brick building typical of the Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie neighborhood, we recently installed a Gree Livo R32 wall-mounted heat pump , a modern model known for its remarkable energy efficiency and compatibility with Montreal's harsh winters. Located just steps from a lively corner of the neighborhood, this installation perfectly illustrates our expertise in dense urban environments where every technical detail counts.
An installation adapted to Montreal's urban architecture
The outdoor compressor was cleverly positioned on a small flat roof overlooking the street, supported by an anti-vibration base and a metal structure designed to withstand climatic variations and frost. The passage of the refrigerant pipes was carefully protected by vertical beige capping , ensuring an aesthetic and discreet finish on the brick facade.
The main challenge of this project was the narrow configuration of the balcony and the need to minimize the visual impact on the street , while respecting safety and accessibility regulations for maintenance.
The performance of the Gree Livo R32: efficiency and durability
The Gree Livo R32 is an increasingly popular choice among our customers in Montreal. This wall-mounted model, compatible with R-32 refrigerant, offers:
