A compact and efficient installation for a protected urban balcony
At AirGreen , we recently installed a Zephyr wall-mounted heat pump in a condo in Montreal's Saint-Laurent district . The project aimed to provide optimal thermal comfort while respecting the space and structural constraints typical of reinforced concrete balconies and modern facades.
A Zephyr model designed for the Quebec climate
The Zephyr heat pump chosen by the customer is part of our high-efficiency residential range, designed to operate efficiently down to -25°C . Compact, quiet and durable, this unit is distinguished by:
-
Its Inverter compressor , guaranteeing stable performance and reduced energy consumption;
-
Smart defrosting , essential for Montreal's harsh winters;
-
Compatibility with Quebec subsidies , thanks to its high energy efficiency.
Precise and robust wall mounting
In this installation, our technicians opted for a reinforced galvanized wall bracket , securely attached to a concrete block wall. This type of mounting is ideal when floor space is limited—such as on a balcony or elevated deck .
We have added:
-
Blue anti-vibration pads to reduce noise pollution and protect the structure;
-
An optimized drainage slope , allowing gravity flow of condensates;
-
A discreet white capping , ensuring the protection and aesthetics of the refrigeration path.
Technical details and professional finishes
Our teams followed the best HVAC installation practices:
-
Refrigerant line length : about 3.5 meters, carefully insulated;
-
Waterproof perforation with integrated vapor barrier;
-
Electrical wiring protected by rigid conduit conforming to RBQ standards;
-
Complete check of pressures and vacuum draw before starting.
A perfect adaptation to the urban lifestyle
The owner, who wanted a solution that was efficient, discreet, and aesthetically pleasing , particularly appreciated the compact configuration of this wall-mounted heat pump. The unit 's positioning under the metal canopy protects it from the elements—a considerable advantage in an urban environment exposed to snow and rain.
Long-term performance and savings

-
Constant comfort in summer and winter ;
-
From a reduction in electricity costs ;
