In summer, the outdoor unit rejects the house's heat outside.

  1. Mounted level on a wall plate, high enough for the air to reach the whole room, with enough space around it to slide the filters out easily.

  2. The refrigerant lines, the communication cable and the drain go through the wall in a single opening, sealed against water, cold air and insects.

  3. Two insulated copper pipes connect the two units. Outside, a line cover can protect them from sun, knocks and weather.

  4. A shut-off switch near the outdoor unit isolates it safely for service. It must stay accessible at all times.

  5. The compressor and the fan. In heating mode it captures heat from the outdoor air, even in winter, and moves it inside.

  6. On the ground or on the wall, it keeps the unit above accumulated snow. The unit stays clear and defrost water can drain away.

  7. The fan needs to blow freely. Storage, a fence or a wall too close, and efficiency drops while noise goes up.

An efficient and quiet solution for your comfort in Notre-Dame-de-Grâce

At AirGreen, we understand the importance of energy efficiency and long-term comfort, especially in neighborhoods like Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, where heating and cooling needs vary throughout the seasons. That’s why we recently installed the Fujitsu AMUG-XLTH heat pump, a model that combines performance, reliability, and energy savings to meet modern demands.

Introduction to the Fujitsu AMUG-XLTH Model

The Fujitsu AMUG-XLTH is a high-end central heat pump, perfect for homes and small businesses looking for a reliable heating and cooling solution. This model is part of the Infinite Comfort series from Fujitsu, which is renowned for its exceptional performance and low noise level.

Performance and Technical Features

Installing this Fujitsu heat pump offers numerous benefits thanks to its innovative design and advanced technology. Here are some of its key features:

  • High energy performance: This system uses Inverter technology, ensuring optimal energy efficiency throughout the year, even at extremely low outdoor temperatures. It can maintain exceptional performance even at -26°C (-15°F), a crucial factor for Montreal's harsh climate.

  • Variable-speed compressor: This allows for precise regulation of indoor temperature while reducing energy consumption and noise levels.

  • Noise reduction: With an indoor unit noise level as low as 23 dBA, this heat pump is ideal for installations in environments where acoustic comfort is a priority.

  • Heating and cooling capacity: The AMUG-XLTH model is available in several configurations, with capacities ranging from 24,000 BTU to 48,000 BTU, suitable for specific space requirements.

Installation Details in Notre-Dame-de-Grâce

This heat pump was installed in an urban setting in Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, where space is often limited, and installation challenges are numerous. Our AirGreen technicians faced several challenges:

Challenges Faced

  • Limited space: The residence being located in a dense neighborhood, we had to maximize the available space to install the outdoor unit. Thanks to the compact outdoor unit, we were able to install it discreetly while meeting energy efficiency standards.

  • Noise management: The residents had a major concern about noise. Fujitsu’s low-noise technology ensured that the system operates silently, offering maximum efficiency, which was particularly appreciated in this residential area.

Solution Provided

Our teams installed the Fujitsu system with carefully arranged ducts, optimizing the unit’s efficiency. By using a liquid-gas connection of 3/8 - 5/8 inches and ensuring the maximum duct length of 164 feet, we guaranteed a smooth and uncompromising installation.

Installation Time

The entire process was completed in one day to minimize disruptions and ensure immediate comfort for the residents. The quick and clean installation allowed the clients to enjoy a comfortable indoor environment the very next day.

Benefits for the Residents of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce

This installation not only provides exceptional comfort but also considerable energy savings. Here are some of the main benefits for the residents of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce:

  1. Energy savings: Thanks to Inverter technology, the heat pump automatically adjusts to the outdoor temperature, thus reducing energy consumption and lowering heating and cooling bills.

  2. Optimal comfort: Whether it’s for the hot summer days or the harsh Montreal winters, the Fujitsu AMUG-XLTH maintains a comfortable indoor temperature throughout the year.

  3. Grants available: As a high-efficiency system, this heat pump is eligible for a grant of up to $5,000, significantly reducing the initial investment.

Your numbers

And at your place?

Two quick checks with real numbers: what heat costs, and what your current heaters add up to in BTU/h.

Size checkYour baseboards, in BTU/h
–BTU/h of installed electric heat

    Conversion: 1 W = 3.412 BTU/h. An indication, not a load calculation: baseboards and furnaces are often stronger than the real need, and they can stay as backup. AirGreen confirms the capacity on site.

    Through the seasons

    What to do, season by season

    Three habits per season for this unit. They take a few minutes and prevent many calls.

    • Clean the indoor unit's filters.
    • Clear leaves and debris left on the outdoor unit by winter.
    • Test cooling before the first hot days.

    Frequently asked questions

    What people ask us about this kind of work

    12 questions
    Does a wall-mounted heat pump heat in winter?
    Yes, it heats and cools. Its capacity drops in very cold weather; the operating range depends on the model and is listed on its spec sheet.
    Wall-mounted or multi-zone: how do I choose?
    One wall head and one condenser outside: the direct solution for a room or an open area. For two to five rooms, a multi-zone puts one head in each room on a single condenser.
    Where does the outdoor unit go?
    Where it stays above the snow, clear and accessible, away from walkways. We decide it with you during the estimate.
    Are there grants?
    Depending on the model and your situation, assistance programs may apply, including Hydro-Québec's LogisVert. AirGreen checks the model number before quoting an amount. See the grants.
    Do I need a permit?
    Rules vary from city to city: location, distances, noise. See permits and by-laws, and we check for your address.
    How cold can it heat?
    It depends on the model. According to Hydro-Québec, newer models work down to a temperature between −15 °C and −25 °C, and some cold-climate models are certified lower. The minimum temperature is on each unit's spec sheet.
    How much can I save?
    Hydro-Québec says a heat pump can be up to three times more efficient than baseboards for heating in the colder months. The result depends on the house, the climate and how it is used.
    How is the LogisVert assistance calculated?
    For ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified heat pumps, Hydro-Québec lists assistance of $120 per 1,000 BTU/h of heating capacity at −8 °C. AirGreen checks the exact model before quoting an amount; only Hydro-Québec confirms the assistance granted. See the grants.
    Is it noisy?
    The sound level depends on the model and is listed in decibels on each unit's spec sheet. Location matters too: when possible, we avoid putting the outdoor unit under a bedroom window.
    The outdoor unit is covered in ice: is that normal?
    Some frost is: the unit runs defrost cycles. Never hit the ice. If the unit stays iced up or stops heating, call us.
    Does AirGreen hold the required licences?
    Yes. AirGreen holds RBQ licence 5645-9605-01, subclasses 15.8 Ventilation, 15.10 Refrigeration and 16 Electricity.
    Is the estimate free?
    Yes. The on-site estimate is free and the quote follows within 24 hours. Book my free estimate.
