A Stylish and Energy-Efficient Upgrade for Comfort and Sustainability
At AirGreen, we take pride in transforming living spaces across Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, North Shore, and South Shore with cutting-edge HVAC solutions. Recently, we completed the installation of a 15,000 BTU SHARP ZU1 Wall-Mounted Heat Pump in a beautiful residence located on Nun’s Island (Île-des-Sœurs). This project combined sleek aesthetics, energy efficiency, and state-of-the-art technology to create an inviting and comfortable home environment.
Project Overview: Why Choose the SHARP ZU1?
The SHARP ZU1 series heat pump is one of the most advanced HVAC systems available today. With its ultra-high efficiency rating of 24.0 SEER, it is designed to deliver exceptional performance while keeping energy costs low. The LogisVert grant offered by Hydro-Québec makes this unit even more attractive, with a substantial reimbursement of $2,172—the highest for any 15,000 BTU machine in Québec!
Key Specifications:
- Cooling Capacity: 15,000 BTU
- Heating Capacity: Operates efficiently at temperatures as low as -27°C
- Sound Levels: 23 dB (indoor) for whisper-quiet operation
- Refrigerant Type: R-32 for an eco-friendly footprint
- Warranty: 10 years on parts, labor, and compressor
- Dimensions (Interior): 41.42" x 9.80" x 12.44"
- Dimensions (Exterior): 30.72" x 10.59" x 21.25"
Installation Details: Merging Functionality with Design
Our team worked closely with the homeowner to integrate the SHARP ZU1 seamlessly into their modern kitchen and dining area. The clean lines of the interior unit blend perfectly with the minimalist décor, ensuring that the system not only performs flawlessly but also complements the home’s aesthetic.
The Process:
- Site Evaluation: Before installation, we conducted a thorough assessment of the property to determine the optimal location for the indoor and outdoor units.
- Custom Piping and Wiring: To maintain the sleek appearance of the space, we carefully concealed the piping and wiring, ensuring a neat and professional finish.
- Outdoor Unit Placement: The compact outdoor unit was strategically positioned to maximize efficiency while minimizing noise and visual impact.
- Testing and Calibration: Post-installation, the system was rigorously tested to ensure peak performance in both heating and cooling modes.
Why This Heat Pump Stands Out
Advanced Air Purification with Plasmacluster Technology
The SHARP ZU1 features Plasmacluster Technology, a patented innovation that purifies the air by neutralizing airborne viruses, mold, and allergens. This technology is perfect for improving indoor air quality, especially for families with allergy sufferers or health-conscious homeowners.
Coanda Airflow for Uniform Comfort
With its innovative Coanda effect, the SHARP ZU1 ensures even distribution of air throughout the room. Warm air is directed downward in the winter, while cool air flows upward in the summer, creating a perfectly balanced indoor climate without uncomfortable drafts.
Eco-Friendly Refrigerant
The R-32 refrigerant used in the SHARP ZU1 reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 67% compared to older refrigerants like R-410A. This aligns perfectly with Québec’s push for sustainable energy solutions.
Hydro-Québec Grant: A Smart Investment
Thanks to its exceptional efficiency, the SHARP ZU1 qualifies for the Hydro-Québec LogisVert Grant, which covers up to $2,172 of the cost. This makes it an unbeatable choice for homeowners seeking to upgrade their HVAC systems while taking advantage of government incentives.
Customer Satisfaction: A Testament to Quality
The homeowner was thrilled with the installation process and the immediate improvement in indoor comfort. The SHARP ZU1 not only met their expectations but exceeded them with its quiet operation, superior air quality, and energy savings.
