Why Dollard-des-Ormeaux? The Perfect Place for a TripleZone System
Dollard-des-Ormeaux, located in the heart of Montreal’s West Island, is known for its diverse weather patterns. This residence required a system capable of delivering consistent heating and cooling, no matter the external conditions. The TripleZone model was the perfect fit, given its adaptability and high efficiency. Our client, keen on creating a comfortable living environment while keeping energy costs low, opted for this solution after evaluating several options.

- Dimensions: 33.47 x 13 x 27.94 inches
- Sound Pressure Level: 50.0 dB(A)
- Gas: R-32
- Voltage: 220V
The exterior unit was strategically placed to minimize noise while maximizing performance. With its compact design and sound pressure level of only 50 dB(A), it is exceptionally quiet, making it suitable for residential neighborhoods like Dollard-des-Ormeaux. The unit’s design ensures effective cooling and heating distribution throughout the home.

Eco-Friendly Advantages: R-32 Refrigerant
One of the standout features of this installation is the use of R-32 refrigerant, a more sustainable option compared to traditional refrigerants like R-410A. R-32 is not only more efficient but also has a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP), reducing the overall carbon footprint of the home’s HVAC system.
This choice aligns with AirGreen’s commitment to offering eco-conscious solutions, allowing homeowners to reduce their impact on the environment without sacrificing comfort.
Plasmacluster Technology for Superior Indoor Air Quality
Another highlight of the Sharp BU TripleZone model is its Plasmacluster technology, which enhances indoor air quality. This feature emits positive and negative ions, similar to those found in nature, to help neutralize viruses, bacteria, and allergens.
Benefits of Plasmacluster Technology:
- Healthier Air: Reduces airborne pathogens, contributing to better respiratory health.
- Odor Control: Effectively neutralizes odors, ensuring fresh-smelling indoor air.
- Allergy Relief: Helps in reducing allergens, making it an excellent choice for households with allergy sufferers.
Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings
With an impressive 24.0 SEER rating, the Sharp BU TripleZone is designed to be one of the most energy-efficient models on the market. This rating ensures significant savings on electricity bills, especially during peak heating and cooling months. For the homeowner in Dollard-des-Ormeaux, this means a more comfortable home without the stress of high energy costs.
Additionally, this model qualifies for the $3,000 LogisVert grant by Hydro-Québec, further reducing the initial installation costs and making it an economically sound investment.
Winter Performance: Heating Down to -27°C
The Sharp BU TripleZone was selected not only for its cooling capacity but also for its exceptional heating performance. With the ability to operate efficiently in temperatures as low as -27°C, this heat pump is built for Montreal’s severe winters. Its patented Hot Gas Pipe system minimizes heat loss during defrost cycles, ensuring a consistent indoor temperature even in the coldest conditions.
How It Works:
- Defrost Cycle Efficiency: Utilizes residual heat to prevent ice buildup on the exterior unit, maintaining heating efficiency.
- Reduced Heat Loss: The innovative design minimizes energy waste, contributing to overall cost savings and enhanced comfort.
