A discreet and efficient air conditioning and heating solution for an urban condo
At AirGreen , we recently completed an LG wall-mounted heat pump installation in a condo in Montreal's Saint-Laurent district. The project perfectly illustrates the benefits of a compact, high-performance system in an urban environment where space is limited and aesthetics must be respected.
Choosing the LG heat pump for a condo
The installed LG wall-mounted heat pump offers a capacity adapted to the needs of a condo-type dwelling, providing both heating in winter and air conditioning in summer. The points that guided this choice:
-
Energy efficiency : high efficiency and potential eligibility for certain Energy Star equipment grants.
-
Compact format : discreet outdoor unit, easily installed on a balcony or terrace.
-
Year-round comfort : efficient heating down to low temperatures and quiet air conditioning for hot July days.
The particularities of the installation
The outdoor unit was installed directly on the balcony slab , an ideal solution for a condo where floor space is limited but stable. For aesthetics and durability, the refrigerant pipes were protected by a vertical brown capping perfectly integrated into the red brick facade.
Some notable technical details:
-
Single wall drilling to connect the outdoor unit to the indoor head.
-
Gravity flow of condensates, avoiding the addition of a lifting pump.
-
Aesthetic alignment with brick and architectural elements (lighting, doors, windows).
-
Safe working height on the balcony, without the need for lifting equipment.
Challenges encountered and solutions adopted
In this type of co-ownership building, several constraints apply:
-
Compliance with the co-ownership regulations : choice of quiet and discreet equipment.
-
Managing the reduced balcony space : precise positioning to preserve access to the patio door and avoid clutter.
-
Aesthetic integration : capping color harmonized with architectural elements to minimize visual impact.
Thanks to our experience, these challenges were successfully met and the installation was completed in just one day.
Results for the client
The owner now benefits from:
-
Optimal thermal comfort in all seasons .
-
An energy-efficient system to reduce your electricity bill.
-
A durable and discreet installation , which respects the standards of the co-ownership and improves the value of the condo.
