A Smooth Transition to Efficiency and Comfort

Project Overview: Embracing Modern HVAC Solutions

AirGreen recently completed an outstanding HVAC installation in Delson on the South Shore, demonstrating our commitment to providing top-tier comfort and efficiency to our clients. Our latest project involved installing a Gree Flexx Electric Furnace, a model known for its durability and advanced technology. This installation was not just a routine upgrade; it was a strategic move by the homeowner to take advantage of Hydro-Québec’s LogisVert rebate, ensuring substantial savings and enhanced home comfort.

The Client’s Challenge: Replacing the Old with the New

The homeowner had been facing recurring issues with an old furnace requiring frequent repairs. Tired of constant breakdowns and inefficiencies, the decision was made to switch to a more reliable and energy-efficient system. The Gree Flexx emerged as the ideal solution, especially attractive due to its eligibility for significant financial incentives through Hydro-Québec’s rebate program and its impressive 12-year warranty covering parts and the compressor.

Choosing the Gree Flexx: An Easy Decision

The choice of the Gree Flexx was influenced by several compelling features that assured the homeowner of its suitability for their specific needs:

  • Compact and Quiet Operation: Given the limited vertical space in the home, the compact dimensions of the Gree Flexx (21.25 x 48.25 x 21.25 inches) were ideal. Its operation is very quiet, with an outdoor sound pressure level as low as 45 dB(A), ensuring it would not disturb the peaceful home environment.
  • Exceptional Energy Efficiency: With up to 20 SEER and 10.5 HSPF, this electric furnace is designed to maximize energy use, significantly reducing utility bills.
  • Robust Performance in Cold Weather: The heat pump operates efficiently down to -30°C, while the electric furnace provides comfortable heat regardless of outdoor temperatures.
  • Advanced Features for Enhanced Comfort: The unit includes an eco mode, powerful operation settings, an illuminated wireless remote, and automatic features such as automatic switching between heating and cooling, fan speed control, and restart after power outages.

Installation Outlook: Precision and Professionalism

Our installation process was meticulously planned and executed. We utilized the existing infrastructure, including pipes and electrical wiring, to minimize disruption and costs for the homeowner. Every step, from inspecting and cleaning the old pipes to ensure they were free of leaks and debris, to the precise installation of the new system, was carried out with the utmost accuracy. Our professional team’s meticulous attention to detail ensured a flawless and efficient installation, to the great satisfaction of the client.

Customer Satisfaction: A Testament to Our Expertise

The homeowner was particularly impressed by the professional and clean service provided by AirGreen. Our ability to integrate high-quality equipment with existing home configurations without compromising service quality or functionality was highly appreciated. The peace of mind provided by the extended warranty and the financial benefits of the Hydro-Québec rebate only added to the client’s satisfaction.

Your numbers

The job tools

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

Size checkYour electric furnace, 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.

    The steps

    How the job unfolds

    The main steps of this kind of job at AirGreen. Every house has its quirks: the estimate brings them out.

    Step 1 of 9The on-site estimate

    We look at the ducts, the current indoor module, the electrical panel and the planned spot for the outdoor unit.

    1. The on-site estimateWe look at the ducts, the current indoor module, the electrical panel and the planned spot for the outdoor unit.
    2. The quoteThe equipment combination, capacity and price, in writing. We check whether the combination qualifies for assistance programs.
    3. Getting readyAccess protected, old unit disconnected and removed when it is being replaced.
    4. The indoor moduleElectric furnace or air handler, with its coil, connected to the supply and return ducts.
    5. The outdoor unitOn a level base, raised above the snow, with free space all around.
    6. The refrigerant linesInsulated, they enter through a sealed opening and run to the indoor coil.
    7. Electrical and thermostatDedicated circuits, accessible disconnect, a thermostat that works with the heat pump and the backup heat.
    8. Tests and start-upLeak test, vacuum, start-up, airflow check and a test of both modes.

    The tour

    What we check on a job like this one

    Each number is a point we check on site. Switch between summer and winter to watch air and heat move.

    Generic diagram: central heat pump, indoor module and ducts

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

    Generic illustration of this type of installation, not a survey of this job site. Tap a number.

    1. It captures or rejects heat outside. It sits on a level base, above the snow, with free space all around.

    2. The insulated refrigerant lines enter the house through a sealed opening and run to the indoor coil.

    3. A shut-off switch near the outdoor unit isolates it safely for service.

    4. Sitting on the indoor module, it moves heat between the house air and the refrigerant.

    5. Electric furnace or air handler: its fan pushes air through the ducts. The electric backup takes over in extreme cold.

    6. Supply ducts bring air to the rooms; returns bring it back to the unit. Their condition matters as much as the unit's.

    7. It protects the coil and the fan. A dirty filter cuts airflow, so it gets checked regularly.

    8. It runs the heat pump and the backup heat. It must be compatible with the installed system.

    The right pages, at the right time

    True or false

    Four statements: true or false?

    It all comes down to details you have just seen.

    1. A central heat pump uses the house's ducts.

    2. In extreme cold, electric backup heat can take over.

    3. The filter only gets changed when the unit breaks down.

    4. You can reuse the old unit's size without checking.

    Frequently asked questions

    What people ask us about this kind of work

    11 questions
    Can I keep my current ducts?
    Often, yes: the central heat pump connects to the existing ducts. We check their condition and size during the estimate.
    What happens in extreme cold?
    The indoor module (furnace or air handler) works with the central heat pump and takes over in extreme cold.
    Furnace, air handler, ducted: what is the difference?
    The furnace or air handler is the indoor module of the central system. A ducted system hides in the ceiling: all you see are small supply grilles.
    Are there grants?
    Depending on the equipment and your situation, assistance programs may apply. AirGreen checks the exact combination before quoting an amount. See the grants.
    Do I need a permit?
    Rules vary from city to city. See permits and by-laws, and we check for your address.
    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.
    Will my current thermostat work?
    Not always: the thermostat has to run the heat pump and the backup heat. We check compatibility during the estimate.
    Central or wall units: which one?
    If the house has ducts in good shape, a central system heats and cools every room at once. Without ducts, wall units or a multi-zone are often simpler. We compare on site.
    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.
