Each number is a point we check on site. Switch between summer and winter to watch air and heat move.
In summer, the outdoor unit rejects the house's heat outside.

It captures or rejects heat outside. It sits on a level base, above the snow, with free space all around.
The insulated refrigerant lines enter the house through a sealed opening and run to the indoor coil.
A shut-off switch near the outdoor unit isolates it safely for service.
Sitting on the indoor module, it moves heat between the house air and the refrigerant.
Electric furnace or air handler: its fan pushes air through the ducts. The electric backup takes over in extreme cold.
Supply ducts bring air to the rooms; returns bring it back to the unit. Their condition matters as much as the unit's.
It protects the coil and the fan. A dirty filter cuts airflow, so it gets checked regularly.
It runs the heat pump and the backup heat. It must be compatible with the installed system.
Transforming Home Comfort with Precision and Style
At AirGreen, we understand that the heart of your home's comfort system is not just about cooling or heating—it's about creating a seamless integration of technology and efficiency that works silently in the background, enhancing your living spaces. Our recent installation in Laval is a testament to this philosophy, where we introduced a homeowner to the exceptional capabilities of the Haxxair 3 Ton Central Heat Pump.
Project Overview
Our team, equipped with expertise and a passion for excellence, embarked on this installation in the serene suburbs of Laval. The choice was the Haxxair model, known for its robust performance and sleek design. This model, carrying a 36,000 BTU capacity and a high-efficiency rating of 18.0 SEER, 11.0 HSPF, and 9.55 EER, represents the pinnacle of heat pump technology.
Distinct Features of the Haxxair Heat Pump
- Advanced Climate Control: With a sophisticated Comfort Sync TM technology, the pump automatically adjusts its output based on the ambient temperature, ensuring consistent indoor climate without the typical fluctuations of conventional systems.
- Designed for Harsh Winters: This model thrives in the demanding Quebec winters, operating efficiently down to -30°C. The heating element in the condensation tray prevents ice accumulation, ensuring unobstructed operation even in the coldest months.
- Quiet Operation: A sound pressure level of only 56.0 dB(A) makes the Haxxair one of the quietest in its class, ensuring your home peace remains undisturbed.
- Eco-Friendly Refrigerant: Utilizing R-410A freon, the system is not only powerful but also environmentally responsible, aligning with today’s green standards.
Installation Insights
The installation process was tailored to maximize the efficiency and aesthetic appeal of the setup. We chose a strategic location on the property that blends seamlessly with the home's exterior while providing optimal operational efficiency. The integration of the system with a high-performance blower cabinet and an "A" type cooling coil ensures that every corner of the home experiences balanced temperatures.
Customer-Centric Approach
Our approach is simple yet profound—understand the client’s needs, and exceed them. For this project, the homeowner was particularly concerned about the winter performance and energy efficiency. Our detailed explanation of the Haxxair’s advanced features not only met their requirements but also helped them understand the long-term benefits of their investment, especially with the potential $3000 LogisVert Grant by Hydro-Québec.

What would it look like 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.

Your own project, step by step
What to do, season by season
Three habits per season for this unit. They take a few minutes and prevent many calls.
- Check the indoor module's filter.
- Clear winter debris from the outdoor unit.
- Test cooling before the heat arrives.
- Check the filter more often in peak season.
- Keep registers and returns clear.
- Watch condensate drainage near the coil.
- Change or clean the filter.
- Test heating and backup heat before the cold.
- Book periodic maintenance.
- Clear snow around the outdoor unit.
- Store nothing in front of the indoor module.
- Note any unusual noise or smell and call us.
Is your home ready?
Check what applies at your place. A "no" is not a refusal: it is what we sort out during the estimate.
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.
It connects to the existing ducts to heat and cool everywhere.
2. In extreme cold, electric backup heat can take over.
The indoor module (furnace or air handler) works with the heat pump and takes over in extreme cold.
3. The filter only gets changed when the unit breaks down.
A dirty filter cuts airflow. It gets checked regularly.
4. You can reuse the old unit's size without checking.
The house may have changed: insulation, windows, added rooms. Capacity is confirmed on site.
