An energy efficiency project in a modern space
At AirGreen , we support many Montreal clients who want to combine comfort and energy savings with efficient HVAC solutions. This project, carried out in a condo in the Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie district, perfectly illustrates the benefits of a Windair wall-mounted heat pump , carefully installed to provide an optimal indoor climate all year round.
Client context and needs
The owner, who recently moved into this modern condo, was looking for a compact, discreet, and energy-efficient solution. The main criteria were:
-
stable thermal comfort in summer and winter,
-
a quiet device, suitable for an open-plan living space,
-
an aesthetic installation , integrating harmoniously into a minimalist decor.
After a technical and energy assessment, our team recommended a 12,000 BTU Windair wall-mounted heat pump , a model known for its reliability and performance in urban residences.
Installation Steps
Strategic positioning
The indoor unit was installed on a central wall, near a wall-mounted thermostat and well away from openings (doors and windows). This choice ensures even air distribution throughout the condo and maximizes comfort throughout the space.
Preparatory work
Our technicians made a precise drilling of the exterior wall to transport:
-
refrigerant lines,
-
electrical wiring,
-
the condensate drainage pipe.
Discreet white capping has been added to the exterior, providing both protection for the pipes and a neat finish, suited to the modern style of the building.
Drainage management
The installation was designed with gravity drainage , allowing a natural and silent flow of condensation water. This avoids the addition of a pump and reduces the risk of additional maintenance.
Advantages of the Windair wall-mounted heat pump
The Windair range is a solution appreciated by our urban customers for several reasons:
-
High energy efficiency : Energy Star certified, this heat pump allows you to benefit from grant programs offered in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, on the North Shore and the South Shore.
-
All-season performance : effective at cooling the air in summer and heating down to -25°C in winter.
-
Quiet operation : The unit is designed for quiet operation, ideal in compact spaces like condos.
-
Sleek aesthetics : its modern design fits perfectly into contemporary interiors.
Results observed after installation
Upon commissioning, the customer noted:
-
constant freshness in your living space, without annoying drafts,
-
a reduction in ambient humidity , increasing comfort in summer,
-
efficient supplementary heating in autumn and spring, reducing the use of the main heating system.
The project was completed in a single day, demonstrating the efficiency of our teams in an urban context where access and noise constraints are frequent.
Grants and support
Thanks to its energy efficiency and reliable operation in extreme cold, this Windair heat pump is eligible for provincial and federal grant programs . Our experts guided the client through the process of preparing the application, making it easier to obtain the available assistance.
