A Cutting-Edge Heating and Cooling Solution for Montréal-Est Homes
At AirGreen, we take pride in delivering state-of-the-art HVAC solutions tailored to the unique needs of our customers across Montréal, Laval, Longueuil, and the greater regions of Rive Nord and Rive Sud. Today, we’re thrilled to showcase a recent project in Montréal-Est: the installation of the SHARP ZU1 15,000 BTU Wall-Mounted Heat Pump. This advanced unit represents the perfect harmony of energy efficiency, performance, and reliability, making it an exceptional choice for the challenging climate of Quebec.
The SHARP ZU1: A High-Performance Heat Pump Built for Extreme Conditions
When it comes to home comfort, the SHARP ZU1 series stands out as a premium option, offering a wide array of innovative features:
- Energy Efficiency: With a stellar 24.0 SEER rating, the ZU1 is one of the most energy-efficient systems on the market, helping homeowners save on energy bills without compromising on performance.
- Heating Capacity in Extreme Cold: Unlike many heat pumps, this model continues to operate effectively in temperatures as low as -27°C, ensuring your home remains warm even during Quebec’s harshest winters.
- Eco-Friendly Refrigerant: Utilizing the new R-32 refrigerant, this system is not only more efficient but also environmentally responsible, reducing its impact on global warming compared to older refrigerants like R-22.
Why This Installation Was Special
Our team was called to a charming home in Montréal-Est to replace an outdated heating system with a more modern and efficient solution. The homeowner had specific requirements: a unit capable of delivering powerful performance year-round while aligning with Hydro-Québec’s energy efficiency incentives. The SHARP ZU1 15,000 BTU heat pump was the ideal choice, and it’s eligible for the $2,172 LogisVert Grant, the highest grant available for any 15,000 BTU unit in Quebec!
Details of the Installation
The installation process required meticulous planning and execution to ensure optimal performance and aesthetic integration:
Exterior Unit Placement
The outdoor unit (AE-X15ZU1) was mounted securely on the exterior brick wall using heavy-duty brackets, ensuring stability and proper airflow. Its compact dimensions (30.72” x 10.59” x 21.25”) made it an ideal fit, blending seamlessly with the home’s architecture. The unit's low noise level of just 49 dB(A) ensures it won’t disturb the peace of the neighborhood.
Interior Unit Setup
Inside the home, the indoor unit (AY-XP15ZU1) was mounted in the living room, a central location to maximize airflow distribution. With a sleek design and dimensions of 41.42” x 9.80” x 12.44”, the unit added a modern touch to the space. The whisper-quiet operation, ranging from 23 to 46 dB(A), guarantees uninterrupted comfort whether the family is relaxing or entertaining guests.
Optimized Piping and Electrical Work
We installed insulated piping (1/4" - 3/8") and ensured seamless integration with the home’s electrical system (220V). Proper insulation and secure connections are essential for maintaining efficiency and minimizing energy loss.
Wi-Fi Integration
The SHARP ZU1 comes with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing the homeowner to control the system remotely via a smartphone app. This feature not only enhances convenience but also provides real-time monitoring of energy consumption and system performance.
Innovative Features That Enhance Comfort
One of the standout features of the SHARP ZU1 series is its Plasmacluster technology, which purifies indoor air by eliminating airborne bacteria, viruses, and allergens. This advanced air purification system is particularly beneficial for families, creating a healthier and more comfortable living environment.
Additionally, the unit’s Coanda airflow control ensures even temperature distribution throughout the home. By directing airflow along walls and ceilings, it avoids drafts and maintains a consistent temperature in every corner of the room.
Customer Satisfaction: Our Top Priority
The homeowner was delighted with the results, noting the immediate improvement in indoor air quality and overall comfort. The system’s ability to maintain warmth during a particularly chilly week was a testament to its exceptional performance. Moreover, the eligibility for the $2,172 LogisVert Grant made this investment even more rewarding.
