A perfectly integrated installation on a balcony in Verdun
At AirGreen , we recently completed a Sharp ZU1 (R-32) wall-mounted heat pump installation in a residential building in Montreal's Verdun sector. This project perfectly illustrates our expertise when it comes to integrating high-performance HVAC systems into tight spaces, typical of Montreal's urban balconies.
The client, living in a southwest-facing condo, was looking for an energy-efficient and quiet solution to maintain a stable temperature year-round. The Sharp ZU1 , with its Plasmacluster Ion technology and Eco Inverter compressor, was the ideal choice for combining performance, comfort and aesthetics.
An installation optimized for a reduced space
The outdoor unit was installed on a reinforced wall bracket , raised off the balcony floor to ensure optimal air circulation and facilitate condensate drainage . This configuration also prevents any accumulation of water or snow during cold seasons.
AirGreen technicians made a hole through the brick wall leading to the interior head, ensuring a direct and aesthetic route for the refrigeration pipes, protected by discreet capping in a matching color .
Despite the space constraint, the installation was carried out without compromising the view or functionality of the balcony, thanks to precise alignment and careful management of the minimum clearance required around the condenser.
Performance and technology at the service of comfort
The Sharp ZU1 is one of the brand's most recent models, operating with R-32 refrigerant , known for its low environmental impact and high energy efficiency .
It offers:
