Efficient Heating and Cooling with Advanced Technology in Montreal's Rosemont Neighborhood
At AirGreen, we pride ourselves on delivering top-tier HVAC services that combine cutting-edge technology with exceptional craftsmanship. This week, we completed the installation of an 18,000 BTU Sharp ZU1 wall-mounted heat pump in the vibrant neighborhood of Rosemont, Montreal. This system is not only one of the most efficient and eco-friendly options available but also comes with the highest possible LogisVert grant of $2,640, making it a highly desirable choice for homeowners seeking both performance and affordability.
The Project: Bringing Comfort to a Rosemont Home
The charming brick-walled interior of this Rosemont home presented the perfect backdrop for the sleek and modern design of the Sharp ZU1 heat pump. Our team meticulously planned the installation to ensure the unit complemented the aesthetic of the space while providing optimal heating and cooling efficiency.
With the unpredictable weather conditions in Quebec, including harsh winters where temperatures can plummet as low as -27°C, the Sharp ZU1 proved to be an ideal choice. Its advanced technology ensures consistent performance, even in extreme climates, giving the homeowner peace of mind year-round.
Why Choose the Sharp ZU1 Heat Pump?
Energy Efficiency at Its Best
The Sharp ZU1 mini split boasts an impressive 24.0 SEER rating, making it one of the most energy-efficient systems on the market. The inclusion of R-32 refrigerant ensures reduced environmental impact while delivering superior performance. Compared to traditional refrigerants, R-32 significantly lowers greenhouse gas emissions, aligning with Quebec's sustainability goals and the upcoming energy efficiency standards of 2025.
Quiet Operation for Ultimate Comfort
With a sound pressure level of just 25 dB(A) indoors, the Sharp ZU1 operates so quietly that it’s virtually unnoticeable. Whether the homeowner is relaxing in their living room or hosting guests, this unit ensures a comfortable environment without disruptive noise.
Cutting-Edge Features
- Plasmacluster Technology: This patented air purification system eliminates airborne viruses, bacteria, and allergens, ensuring clean and healthy indoor air.
- Coanda Airflow Control: By directing airflow along walls and ceilings, this feature prevents uncomfortable drafts and ensures uniform temperature distribution throughout the room.
- Wi-Fi Connectivity: With built-in Wi-Fi, the homeowner can conveniently control the heat pump via their smartphone, optimizing energy use and enhancing convenience.
The Installation Process
Our skilled technicians began by carefully mounting the indoor unit (AY-XP18ZU1) on the brick wall, ensuring precise alignment for optimal airflow. The outdoor unit (AE-X18ZU1) was securely installed in a location that maximized efficiency while minimizing exposure to the elements. Using insulated piping (1/4 - 3/8) and high-quality brackets, we ensured a clean and professional finish.
One of the key challenges of this project was preserving the aesthetic integrity of the exposed brick wall. Our team expertly concealed the wiring and piping, blending functionality with design seamlessly. The result? A visually stunning installation that combines modern technology with timeless architecture.
