An HVAC solution tailored to the needs of a residential office
At AirGreen , we are regularly asked to work on projects where comfort and functionality must be combined. In a residential area of Chomedey, Laval , we recently installed a Tosot wall-mounted heat pump , perfectly suited for a home office. The client's goal was clear: to maintain a stable and pleasant temperature in a closed room used daily for teleworking and leisure activities, while reducing their annual energy bill.
Project background
The room in question, with its dark walls and solid wood furniture, lacked natural ventilation and tended to accumulate heat in the summer and cold in the winter. Choosing a 9,000 BTU Tosot wall-mounted heat pump was the best option. This model, known for its quiet operation and low energy consumption, is Energy Star certified and remains efficient even during Laval's harsh winters.
Technical steps and challenges of installation
Inner head positioning
The wall-mounted fan was mounted high up, centered on a side wall, above a desk. This choice allows for optimal air diffusion throughout the room without interfering with furniture. The position also ensures that the airflow is not directly directed toward the work area, thus avoiding discomfort associated with drafts.
Evacuation and connection management
The refrigerant pipes were discreetly routed, with integrated white capping that blends perfectly with the adjacent frame. Condensate drainage was designed using gravity , which reduces long-term maintenance and limits the risk of breakdowns linked to a lifting pump.
Specific constraints
Given the relatively limited space, we took care to minimize the unit's visual footprint while respecting the clearance standards required for proper operation. Particular care was taken with the insulation of the ducts to avoid any loss of efficiency and ensure maximum performance.
