Bringing Unmatched Comfort and Energy Efficiency to a Home in Deux-Montagnes
At AirGreen, we take pride in delivering top-tier HVAC solutions tailored to our customers’ needs, and this recent project in Deux-Montagnes was no exception. The installation of a SHARP ZHU1 Mini Split Heat Pump was more than just a job; it was an opportunity to transform a home into a haven of comfort, energy efficiency, and modern technology.
The Challenge: Preparing for Québec’s Harsh Weather
The homeowner reached out to us with a specific goal: they wanted an HVAC system capable of keeping their home comfortable year-round, even during Québec’s unforgiving winters and humid summers. With outdoor temperatures often plummeting to -27°C, the heat pump needed to be powerful, reliable, and energy-efficient. The SHARP ZHU1 Mini Split Heat Pump was the perfect solution.
Why the SHARP ZHU1 Stands Out
This 12,000 BTU ductless heat pump is a game-changer for homeowners seeking comfort without compromise. Here’s why it’s an excellent choice:
- Heating Capacity at -27°C: The SHARP ZHU1 delivers consistent heating performance, maintaining a cozy indoor environment even in extreme cold.
- Energy Star® Certified: With a remarkable 25.0 SEER rating, this heat pump minimizes energy consumption, translating into significant savings on utility bills.
- R-32 Refrigerant: This modern refrigerant is environmentally friendly, reducing the system's global warming potential while increasing efficiency by up to 10%.
- Quiet Operation: Operating at just 22 dB(A) indoors, this heat pump ensures peace and quiet while delivering exceptional performance.
- WiFi Connectivity: Equipped with advanced smart controls, the SHARP ZHU1 allows the homeowner to manage their system remotely, monitor energy usage, and even receive maintenance alerts.
Installation Highlights
Our team arrived at the property in Deux-Montagnes on a crisp fall morning, ready to bring this innovative system to life. The installation process included the following key steps:
1. Strategic Placement of the Outdoor Unit
The outdoor unit, with dimensions of 30.72 x 10.59 x 21.25, was mounted securely on an elevated platform to protect it from snow accumulation and debris. Positioned near the home’s exterior wall, it combines optimal functionality with an aesthetically pleasing design.
2. Seamless Indoor Unit Integration
The sleek indoor unit, measuring 41.42 x 9.80 x 12.44, was installed in the living area to ensure even air distribution. With its minimalist design and advanced Plasmacluster technology, it not only heats and cools but also purifies the air by eliminating bacteria, viruses, and allergens.
3. Efficient Piping and Wiring
We used high-quality materials for the piping and electrical connections, ensuring long-term durability and compliance with local building codes. At AirGreen, attention to detail is a cornerstone of every project.
4. System Testing and Optimization
Once the installation was complete, our technicians ran a series of tests to confirm the system's efficiency and performance. We calibrated the settings to the homeowner’s preferences and provided a comprehensive walkthrough of the system’s features, including its Coanda airflow effect and self-cleaning capabilities.
Maximum Value with Hydro-Québec’s LogisVert Grant
One of the most exciting aspects of this project is that the SHARP ZHU1 Mini Split Heat Pump qualifies for Hydro-Québec’s LogisVert grant, providing the homeowner with a substantial rebate of $2,268. This makes it the highest grant available for a 12,000 BTU system in Québec, effectively reducing the overall investment cost while increasing the property’s value.
The Benefits: Comfort Meets Innovation
By choosing the SHARP ZHU1 Mini Split Heat Pump, the homeowner now enjoys:
- Year-Round Comfort: From sweltering summers to frigid winters, this system ensures optimal indoor temperatures no matter the season.
- Lower Energy Bills: Thanks to its superior energy efficiency, the SHARP ZHU1 delivers powerful heating and cooling while keeping electricity costs in check.
- Healthier Indoor Air: The Plasmacluster technology neutralizes airborne pollutants, creating a clean and healthy environment for the entire family.
- Eco-Friendly Living: With its advanced R-32 refrigerant, this heat pump is a step toward a more sustainable future.
