A high-performance and elegant HVAC solution for lasting comfort in the heart of Montreal
At AirGreen , we recently completed a Tosot Inverter wall-mounted heat pump installation in the Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie neighborhood, a typical urban area of Montreal where buildings combine old-world charm with modern energy efficiency needs. This project perfectly illustrates our expertise in residential HVAC installation , adapted to the architectural features of apartment buildings.
A demanding urban context: efficiency and discretion on the balcony
The client, the owner of a condo located on the upper floor of a Montreal plex, was looking for an economical , quiet and reliable solution to replace an old wall-mounted air conditioner. The main constraints were related to the limited space of the balcony and the need for a four-season system capable of providing optimal comfort in both heating and cooling.
The Tosot Inverter was a natural choice. This model, renowned for its high energy efficiency and variable speed compressor technology , allows precise adaptation to the thermal needs of the home while maintaining low energy consumption.
Choosing the Tosot Inverter wall-mounted heat pump
The Tosot brand, part of the GREE group, is an international benchmark in the field of heating and air conditioning . Its devices are designed to offer reliable performance even in the extreme temperatures of Quebec.
The Inverter model is distinguished by:
-
Quiet operation , ideal for urban environments like Rosemont;
-
Heating capacity down to -25°C , suitable for Montreal winters;
-
Inverter technology that adjusts compressor speed to maximize efficiency and minimize operating costs;
-
A compact and modern design , fitting perfectly into restricted environments, such as condo balconies.
Thanks to these features, the Tosot Inverter is eligible for several provincial grant programs , including those offered as part of Quebec's energy transition for high-efficiency equipment.
A neat installation adapted to the space
Our AirGreen certified technicians carried out an installation on a reinforced wall bracket , securely attached to the balcony structure. This configuration has several advantages:
-
It frees up floor space;
-
It ensures optimal clearance of the air flow around the condenser;
-
It facilitates maintenance and technical access in complete safety.
The outdoor unit was installed with a slight inclination to allow natural drainage of condensate, without the need for a pump. The refrigerant pipes were carefully insulated and protected by discreet, neutral-colored capping , in harmony with the facade.
The power supply has been integrated into a secure sheath that complies with CSA and RBQ standards.
The challenge: combining performance and aesthetics
One of the main challenges of this project was the visual discretion of the installation. The client's balcony overlooks a typical busy Rosemont street, and it was essential to maintain a clean appearance .
For that :
-
The cables and refrigeration lines were routed in a linear and compact manner;
-
The galvanized support was chosen for its resistance to corrosion and its neutral color;
-
The installation was carried out without any visible drilling on the facade side, complying with building standards and the expectations of the co-ownership association.
The result: a clean, silent and almost invisible installation , while guaranteeing optimal ventilation of the Tosot condenser .
Result: immediate comfort and lasting savings
From the moment it was switched on, the customer noted remarkable stability of the indoor temperature , without sudden variations or perceptible operating noise. Thanks to the Inverter compressor , the heat pump automatically adapts its power to actual needs, thus reducing:
-
electricity consumption ;
-
the startup noise ;
-
premature wear of mechanical components .
This system provides economical heating in winter and efficient cooling in summer, with a high seasonal efficiency (SEER) , comparable to the best brands on the market.

Maintenance and longevity: AirGreen advice
To ensure maximum performance from the Tosot Inverter , our experts recommend:
-
Regular cleaning of the internal filter (every two months during periods of intensive use);
-
An annual inspection by an AirGreen technician to check the refrigerant level, condition of connections and drainage;
-
A clearance of 30 to 40 cm around the condenser to ensure optimal air circulation;
-
Protection against snow in winter if the balcony is exposed.
These simple actions extend the life of the heat pump and maintain optimal energy efficiency throughout the year.
