Mounted level on a wall plate, high enough for the air to reach the whole room, with enough space around it to slide the filters out easily.
The refrigerant lines, the communication cable and the drain go through the wall in a single opening, sealed against water, cold air and insects.
Two insulated copper pipes connect the two units. Outside, a line cover can protect them from sun, knocks and weather.
A shut-off switch near the outdoor unit isolates it safely for service. It must stay accessible at all times.
The compressor and the fan. In heating mode it captures heat from the outdoor air, even in winter, and moves it inside.
On the ground or on the wall, it keeps the unit above accumulated snow. The unit stays clear and defrost water can drain away.
The fan needs to blow freely. Storage, a fence or a wall too close, and efficiency drops while noise goes up.

This 18,000 BTU unit offers exceptional performance even in the harshest of conditions, making it the ideal solution for homes in this region.

A Smooth Installation Process by AirGreen Experts
Professional Assessment and Planning
Our installation process began with a comprehensive assessment of the home to determine the best location for both the indoor and outdoor units. This is crucial for maximizing efficiency and ensuring optimal air distribution. After careful consideration, our team decided on the ideal spot that would allow the Gree Sapphire to function at its best.
Precision Installation of the Indoor Unit
The indoor unit, measuring 44.19 x 9.81 x 13 inches, was installed with precision to ensure optimal air circulation. The sleek design of the Gree Sapphire blends seamlessly with any interior décor, adding a touch of modernity while ensuring efficient airflow throughout the room.
Outdoor Unit Installation and Sturdy Support
The outdoor unit, which measures 38.63 x 16.81 x 31.13 inches, was mounted on a sturdy stand to ensure stability and longevity. Proper placement of the outdoor unit is essential to avoid unnecessary wear and tear and to maintain consistent performance, especially during extreme weather conditions.
Eligible for the LogisVert Grant – $1,704 Savings!
One of the most appealing aspects of the Gree Sapphire is its eligibility for the LogisVert Grant by Hydro-Québec, which offers an incredible $1,704 savings. This grant significantly reduces the cost of installation, making the Gree Sapphire an even more attractive option for homeowners looking to upgrade their HVAC systems.
The Benefits Our Customer Will Enjoy
High Efficiency and Cost Savings
- Federal and Provincial Grants: In addition to the LogisVert Grant, our client is eligible for up to $2,500-$5,000 in federal grants, making this installation an investment that pays off in the long run.
- Energy Savings: With its 24.5 SEER efficiency, the Gree Sapphire is designed to operate with minimal energy consumption, ensuring lower electricity bills.
Quiet Operation
- Interior Noise Levels: The interior unit operates at a whisper-quiet 34-51 dB(A), ensuring a peaceful environment.
- Exterior Noise Levels: The exterior unit operates at 59.0 dB(A), which is remarkably quiet for a machine of its power.
Aftercare and Extended Warranty – Ensuring Peace of Mind
Our work doesn't end with the installation. We offer an extended warranty (10-10-10), which includes 10 years on the compressor, 10 years on parts, and 10 years on labor. This comprehensive warranty ensures that our customers enjoy years of worry-free operation. We also provide ongoing maintenance services to keep the Gree Sapphire running efficiently.

And at your place?
Two quick checks with real numbers: what heat costs, and what your current heaters add up to in BTU/h.
Conversion: 1 W = 3.412 BTU/h. An indication, not a load calculation: baseboards and furnaces are often stronger than the real need, and they can stay as backup. AirGreen confirms the capacity on site.
