A well-appointed installation in a modern residential setting
In Mount Royal , we recently completed a full installation of a Midea wall-mounted heat pump , a compact and efficient model perfectly suited to condominiums and urban dwellings. This project clearly demonstrates our expertise in HVAC installations in confined spaces , where every detail matters: location, mounting, insulation, and finishing.
The client, a condo owner with a balcony, wanted to replace their old, noisy air conditioner with a quieter, more energy-efficient solution that could also provide heating in winter . After evaluation, our AirGreen team recommended the Midea Inverter heat pump , known for its stable performance even at -25°C.
Preliminary diagnosis and device selection
Before any installation, our technicians carried out a thermal assessment of the home to determine the optimal power of the unit. Based on the volume and insulation of the space, a 12,000 BTU/h model was selected, capable of ensuring balanced comfort year-round .
The main criteria considered:
-
Low noise level (less than 42 dB);
-
Inverter technology to modulate power and reduce consumption;
-
High-performance heating mode to cope with Quebec winters;
-
R32 refrigerant gas , more environmentally friendly and efficient;
-
Compact design perfectly suited for balcony installation.
Steps for installing a Midea heat pump
Our team followed the AirGreen installation procedures rigorously and precisely.
1. Positioning and preparation of the support
The client had a ceramic balcony adjoining a concrete facade. To prevent any vibration and ensure efficient condensate drainage, we:
-
Installed a raised and mechanically fixed anodized aluminium structure ;
-
Added anti-vibration pads under the feet of the stand;
-
Drilled a sealed refrigeration line passage to the indoor unit through the partition;
-
A professional insulating sealant was applied to seal the duct and protect against moisture.
2. Refrigeration and electrical connection
The copper lines were carefully bent and insulated , then connected to the outdoor unit with torque-controlled nuts to prevent any leakage.
The electrical wiring was done according to CSA standards, including grounding and connection to a dedicated circuit breaker .
3. Commissioning and calibration
After a nitrogen leak test , the system was vacuum-sealed at -30 psi for 20 minutes, ensuring the absence of internal moisture.
We then released the pre-charged gas from the Midea unit and initiated the commissioning phase :
-
Checking the indoor airflow ;
-
Measurement of the temperature differential between supply and return air;
-
Noise level control;
-
Calibration of the Inverter electronic board .
The result: a perfectly balanced system, ready to offer stable comfort in any season .
A result that met the client's expectations
Once the installation was complete, the customer immediately noticed the disappearance of outside noise and the smoothness of the indoor air diffusion .
The discreet design of the outdoor unit blends harmoniously with the balcony facade, while leaving optimal clearance for future maintenance.
Thanks to this installation, the customer now benefits from:
-
Economical heating even in winter;
-
Efficient and quiet air conditioning in summer;
-
With energy consumption reduced by up to 35% compared to your old appliance.
