A modern comfort solution in a space with heritage character
In the heart of Plateau-Mont-Royal , a neighborhood known for its century-old buildings and interiors with unique architectural charm, our AirGreen team recently completed the installation of a Midea wall-mounted heat pump . This project perfectly illustrates the ability to integrate a high-performance heating and air conditioning (HVAC) system into a residential environment where every aesthetic and functional detail counts.
Choosing equipment adapted to customer needs
The owner of this apartment wanted to improve year-round comfort without compromising the aesthetics of his home with its period moldings. After analysis, we recommended a Midea 12,000 BTU wall-mounted heat pump , known for:
-
its high energy efficiency (SEER2 and HSPF2 compliant with Quebec and Energy Star standards),
-
its operating capacity down to -25°C , ideal for Montreal winters,
-
its sound discretion , a key element in a compact residential environment.
Constraints and challenges related to old buildings
Installation in a heritage building always presents specific challenges. Here, the interior head had to be installed above a door frame, limiting the available space. Our technicians therefore:
-
carried out a precise drilling for the passage of the refrigeration connections,
-
integrated a discreet white capping that blends in with the existing moldings,
-
installed the wall head at a strategic height to ensure optimal diffusion of air in the main space,
-
installed a gravity drainage system , avoiding the addition of a visible condensate pump.
Benefits for the customer
From the moment it was put into service, the benefits were tangible:
-
Four-season comfort : efficient heating in winter, effective air conditioning in summer.
-
Energy savings thanks to inverter technology that automatically adjusts power as needed.
-
Preserved aesthetics : the modern and compact design of the interior unit respects the heritage character of the apartment.
-
Available subsidies : this type of heat pump is eligible for Quebec programs (LogisVert, Chauffez vert, municipal subsidies) and allows the customer to reduce the initial investment.
An installation carried out with care and expertise
Every installation at AirGreen is meticulously planned. In this project, our team coordinated:
-
Preliminary electrical verification and connection in accordance with current standards.
-
Complete vacuuming of the circuit to ensure sealing.
-
Performance testing and calibration of the remote control so that the device meets the actual needs of the home.
