Successful technical integration in a Montreal brick duplex
In a typical duplex in the Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension neighborhood, our team recently installed a Sharp Eco Inverter wall-mounted heat pump . The goal: to provide occupants with a high-performance HVAC system capable of ensuring comfort and energy savings throughout the year, while respecting the architecture of an old building with red brick walls.
A heat pump adapted to the needs of a Montreal family
The Sharp Eco Inverter is designed to meet Quebec's climate. Thanks to its inverter system, it automatically adjusts its power, reducing temperature fluctuations and peaks in power consumption. This energy efficiency is accompanied by greater comfort in both summer and winter. In addition, its integrated technology allows for better indoor air quality, a sought-after benefit in urban homes.
Technical challenges encountered
Each building in Greater Montreal has its own particularities, and this installation was no exception:
-
High-mounted on wall brackets : the condenser has been securely installed at a raised level to prevent snow accumulation and ensure optimal air circulation.
-
Passage of refrigerant and electrical connections : the conduits were carefully sheathed and protected by discreet white capping, ensuring both safety and aesthetic integration.
-
Dedicated power supply : a box has been added near the outdoor unit, facilitating maintenance and ensuring safe connection.
-
Drainage management : Precise positioning allowed gravity drainage of condensate, eliminating the need for an additional pump.
Immediate and lasting comfort
Since the start of service, the family has noticed several improvements:
-
Fast and even cooling of main rooms during hot days.
-
A reduction in electricity bill compared to using older portable air conditioners.
-
Sound tranquility thanks to the Sharp unit design, which significantly reduces operating noise.
-
Better space management since the outdoor unit does not rest on the ground and thus frees up the backyard.
Grants available for this type of installation
High-efficiency wall-mounted heat pumps like the Sharp Eco Inverter are eligible for provincial and federal grant programs, particularly for their ability to heat efficiently even in sub-zero temperatures. At AirGreen, we assist our clients in preparing and submitting grant applications to reduce initial investment costs.
