In an iconic area like the Plateau-Mont-Royal , where brick buildings predominate and every exterior installation must be carefully considered, we recently completed the installation of aSharp wall-mounted heat pump on the rear facade of a residential building. This project perfectly illustrates the balance between performance, discretion, and durability that we at AirGreen strive to achieve for our Montreal clients.
A Sharp wall-mounted heat pump adapted for Plateau plexes
The installed system is a Sharp wall-mounted heat pump , specifically a model from the Sharp ZU1 Eco Inverter range, recognizable by its compact design and advanced technology. This type of heat pump is particularly well-suited to homes in the Plateau-Mont-Royal neighbourhood, which are often spread over several floors, with narrow backyards and older masonry walls.
The wall-mounted heat pump provides both winter heating and summer air conditioning , without the need for ducts, which is a major advantage in this type of building.
Installation details: a neat integration into a brick wall
The photos show an outdoor unit securely mounted on a robust wall bracket , anchored directly into the brick. This method is preferred in the Plateau region for several reasons:
-
Avoid direct contact with the ground and snow accumulation in winter
-
Reduce vibrations and protect the masonry
-
Optimizing space in often limited backyards
The refrigerant lines are neatly covered, providing both weather protection and a clean visual finish. The compact Sharp outdoor unit blends discreetly into the dense urban environment, a key requirement in this neighborhood.
Why the Sharp ZU1 model is an excellent choice
The Sharp ZU1 is recognized for several key features that make it a reliable choice for the Quebec climate:
-
Eco Inverter technology ensures precise power modulation and reduced energy consumption.
-
Plasmacluster system , contributing to better indoor air quality
-
Reliable heating performance , even during periods of intense cold.
-
Quiet operation , a significant advantage in densely populated residential areas.
For residents of Plateau-Mont-Royal, this type of Sharp wall-mounted heat pump represents a modern solution that advantageously replaces more energy-intensive heating systems, while adding essential summer comfort.
Four-season comfort for urban housing
Thanks to this installation, the occupants now benefit from:
-
Of a stable and uniform temperature inside
-
A significant reduction in energy costs
-
A discreet system, both indoors and outdoors
-
A sustainable solution, designed for the realities of Montreal winters
Every parameter, from the positioning of the outdoor unit to the fixing to the brick, has been carefully studied by our team to ensure maximum longevity of the system.
