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.
The refrigerant lines, the communication cable and the drain go through the wall in a single opening, sealed against water, cold air and insects.
Two insulated copper pipes connect the two units. Outside, a line cover can protect them from sun, knocks and weather.
A shut-off switch near the outdoor unit isolates it safely for service. It must stay accessible at all times.
The compressor and the fan. In heating mode it captures heat from the outdoor air, even in winter, and moves it inside.
On the ground or on the wall, it keeps the unit above accumulated snow. The unit stays clear and defrost water can drain away.
The fan needs to blow freely. Storage, a fence or a wall too close, and efficiency drops while noise goes up.

The Installation Process: Crafting Comfort with Precision
Pre-Installation Assessment
Before commencing any installation, our team conducts a thorough assessment of the site. In this project, we inspected the space in the Town of Mount Royal to determine the best location for the unit to ensure optimal performance and aesthetics. The goal was to integrate the Gree Sapphire seamlessly into the home without compromising on functionality or design.
Installation Day: A Blend of Expertise and Efficiency
On the day of the installation, our skilled technicians arrived promptly and began the process with meticulous care. Here’s a breakdown of the steps we followed:
- Mounting the Interior Unit: The interior unit was installed on a strategically chosen wall to ensure even airflow distribution throughout the room. The sleek design of the Gree Sapphire complemented the home’s decor beautifully.
- Installing the Exterior Unit: Positioned outside, the exterior unit was mounted securely to withstand the elements while maintaining a low noise level to avoid disturbing the household.
- Connecting the Pipes and Wiring: Using high-quality materials, we connected the pipes and electrical wiring, ensuring all connections were secure and leak-free.
- System Testing: After installation, the entire system was thoroughly tested to confirm it was operating at peak efficiency. This included checking the cooling and heating functions, WiFi connectivity, and overall system performance.

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