A Harmonious Blend of Efficiency and Community Savings

When it comes to heating and cooling solutions, precision, efficiency, and community impact matter. At AirGreen, we are thrilled to showcase a recent highlight from our portfolio—a dual installation of the Gree FreeMatch Extreme Double Zone Heat Pumps for neighboring residents in Anjou, Montreal. This project not only exemplifies our commitment to top-tier HVAC solutions but also reflects our dedication to fostering community through thoughtful service offers.

Project Overview: Dual Installation with a Twist

In the picturesque borough of Anjou, two neighbors approached AirGreen with a common goal: to enhance their home comfort systems before the harsh Canadian winter. Our solution? The Gree FreeMatch Extreme Double Zone Heat Pump, known for its robust performance and reliability. Here's what makes these installations stand out:

  • Dual Installation: We installed two separate systems for each home, optimizing their individual heating and cooling needs while maintaining aesthetic consistency across the properties.
  • Community Discount: Leveraging the proximity of the installations, we offered a substantial group discount, reinforcing the value of community and mutual benefit among neighbors.
  • Grant Eligibility: Each system qualifies for a $2,148 LogisVert Grant from Hydro-Québec, providing not only a top-notch heating solution but also a smart financial choice.

Unpacking the Gree FreeMatch Extreme

The Gree FreeMatch Extreme is a powerhouse in the realm of Double Zone Heat Pumps, offering unmatched performance and energy efficiency. Key features include:

  • Cooling and Heating Capacity: With a 24,000 BTU compressor and two 12,000 BTU indoor units, it ensures optimal temperature control.
  • Impressive Durability: Features like a reinforced steel box and fins with anti-corrosion coating guarantee longevity.
  • Smart Technology: Equipped with WiFi capabilities, it allows for easy management of settings via smartphone.
  • Energy Efficiency: Boasting an Energy Star certification and an impressive 23.0 SEER rating, this system is designed for eco-conscious efficiency.
  • Extended Warranty: A 10-year warranty on parts, compressor, and labor underscores our commitment to long-term customer 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 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.

    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 room, the outside wall, the line route and where the outdoor unit will go. That is where the capacity gets chosen.

    1. The on-site estimateWe look at the room, the outside wall, the line route and where the outdoor unit will go. That is where the capacity gets chosen.
    2. The quoteModel, capacity and price, in writing. We also check whether the model qualifies for assistance programs.
    3. Getting readyFloors and furniture protected, wall plate position marked level, wall opening located.
    4. The wall openingA single opening, with the slope the drain needs to flow outside.
    5. The outdoor unitSet on a stand raised above the snow, with the clearances the manufacturer requires.
    6. Lines, cable and drainConnected, insulated and protected. The opening is then sealed against water, cold air and insects.
    7. The electrical workA dedicated circuit and an accessible disconnect near the outdoor unit.
    8. Tests and start-upLeak test, vacuum, then start-up and a check of heating and cooling.

    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: wall-mounted heat pump, indoor and outdoor units

    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. 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.

    What to do, season by season

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

    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. In heating mode, the outdoor unit can produce water.

    2. You pick the capacity with a simple square-footage rule.

    3. A multi-zone connects several indoor heads to a single condenser.

    4. The disconnect can sit behind the patio furniture.

    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.
