In a typical Verdun apartment in southwest Montreal, our team installed a Midea wall-mounted heat pump in the central hallway. This placement efficiently distributes heat to the bathroom, bedrooms, and the rest of the apartment, while maintaining a discreet and elegant look.
A strategic corridor to heat and cool the entire dwelling
The apartment is arranged around a narrow corridor leading directly to a fully tiled bathroom , often one of the coldest rooms in winter. Doors on either side lead to the bedrooms and living room.
By placing the Midea wall-mounted head above the door frame leading to the bathroom:
-
The air is blown along the axis of the corridor and distributed to the different rooms;
-
The bathroom quickly benefits from cooler and drier air after showers;
-
The adjoining rooms gain in comfort without the need to multiply the appliances.
This type of installation is particularly suited to the plexes and apartments of Verdun, where every square meter counts and where compact but efficient solutions are sought.
A Midea wall-mounted heat pump for extreme cold weather
For this project, we installed a Midea wall-mounted heat pump, type Midea28 , with a capacity of approximately 12,000 BTU, ideal for a hallway that serves several rooms.
This Midea28 range is distinguished by:
-
A more modern and efficient R-454B refrigerant ;
-
A heating capacity down to −30 °C , perfectly suited to the Quebec climate;
-
Inverter technology that continuously modulates power to maintain a stable temperature;
-
Very quiet operation, essential in a corridor adjoining the bedrooms.
The discreet digital display, here set to 20°C , allows the customer to see the set temperature at a glance, even from the other end of the corridor.
Installation details: cleanliness, safety and performance
Our priority at AirGreen is to deliver an installation that is high-performing, safe, and aesthetically flawless. On this Verdun project, several technical points deserve highlighting:
1. Positioning the Midea wall head
-
The unit is installed high up, above the door frame , respecting the clearances recommended by Midea;
-
This position promotes the natural circulation of warm air towards the rooms and prevents the airflow from directly hitting the occupants;
-
The device's level was precisely adjusted to ensure perfect condensate drainage .
2. Passage of refrigeration lines
-
The refrigeration pipes, communication cable and condensate drain are concealed behind the unit, with no visible cable trays in the corridor;
-
The opening was carefully made towards the rear of the building, typical of Verdun backyards, to reach the external condenser.
3. Installation of the outdoor condenser
-
The Midea28 condenser is mounted on robust supports, with anti-vibration pads to reduce noise and vibration;
-
The clearances required for air circulation, snow removal in winter and maintenance were scrupulously respected;
-
A service switch near the condenser makes maintenance and future interventions quick and safe.
4. Compliant electrical connection
-
The heat pump is powered via a dedicated circuit breaker in the electrical panel, in accordance with the standards;
-
The wire gauge, protection and grounding have been checked;
-
We performed vacuum, leak and refrigerant charging tests before commissioning.
Tangible benefits for the customer
Following the installation and commissioning of the Midea28 wall-mounted heat pump, the Verdun customer is already enjoying several benefits:
-
Four-season comfort : in summer, the room stays cool even during heat waves; in winter, the heat pump provides stable and pleasant heating, reducing the use of electric baseboard heaters.
-
More comfortable bathroom : heat spreads quickly into the tiled bathroom, which is often cold in the morning; in summer, the air conditioning mode also helps to limit humidity after showers.
-
Energy savings : thanks to the very good coefficient of performance of the Midea28, a large part of the heating needs are met at a reduced cost, which translates into lower Hydro-Québec bills .
-
Silence and discretion : the Midea wall head operates at low power most of the time; the unit blends visually into the white walls, not disturbing either the aesthetics or the flow of traffic in the corridor.
