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.
A Tale of Precision and Comfort: The Gree Extreme Heat Pump Installation
In the heart of Anjou, Montréal, AirGreen, a leading HVAC company renowned for its dedication to quality and customer satisfaction, recently undertook an installation project that stands as a testament to our expertise and commitment to excellence. This project involved the installation of a Gree Extreme Heat Pump, a model celebrated for its remarkable efficiency, innovative features, and robust performance, even in the coldest winters.
Project Overview: Understanding the Challenge
The installation presented a unique set of challenges and requirements, which our team approached with meticulous planning and precision. The client's primary concern was to ensure the optimal placement of the indoor unit. It was crucial for the airflow to reach every corner of the large room seamlessly, maintaining a uniform temperature throughout. This necessitated the unit to be mounted directly above the door – a strategic position that guaranteed widespread distribution of warm air. However, this placement also demanded a careful consideration of space, ensuring enough clearance above the unit to avoid a cramped appearance and maintain the aesthetic appeal of the room.
The Gree Extreme Heat Pump: A Closer Look
The Gree Extreme Heat Pump, with a potent 24,000 BTU size, is not just any heating solution; it's a beacon of energy efficiency and technological advancement. Certified by Energy Star®, this model comes equipped with WiFi capability, allowing users to control their indoor climate with the mere touch of a smartphone. Its AHRI certification (9123256) and an impressive 21.5 SEER rating underscore its superior performance and energy savings potential. The unit's comprehensive 10-10-10 warranty (compressor, parts, labor) further solidifies its reliability and long-term value. Additionally, its quiet operation, with indoor sound levels ranging between 34 to 54 dB(A), ensures a peaceful, comfortable environment.
Innovative Solutions for a Seamless Installation
Our team, equipped with expertise and an eye for detail, addressed the project's unique requirements head-on. The proximity of the indoor and outdoor units on the same wall presented an opportunity to streamline the installation process. This alignment allowed us to conceal the piping behind the indoor unit adeptly, achieving a clean and unobtrusive finish that met the client's expectations for a visually appealing setup.
The winter installation timing offered additional advantages. Not only were we able to schedule the project at a time that minimized disruption for the homeowner, but we also extended a significant discount, enhancing customer satisfaction and reinforcing our commitment to value.
Satisfying Every Requirement with Grace and Efficiency
This project exemplifies AirGreen's holistic approach to HVAC solutions. Beyond the technical prowess displayed in navigating the installation's challenges, our team demonstrated an unwavering focus on the client's needs. From ensuring the strategic placement of the unit for optimal airflow to executing a visually pleasing installation that conceals piping effectively, every step was taken with the client's comfort and satisfaction in mind.
Moreover, the selection of the Gree Extreme Heat Pump for this installation was a decision rooted in our deep understanding of product performance and customer needs. Its energy-efficient operation, backed by top-tier certifications and guarantees, aligns perfectly with our mission to provide environmentally friendly and cost-effective heating solutions.

The big day, step by step
The main steps of this kind of job at AirGreen. Every house has its quirks: the estimate brings them out.
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.
Model, capacity and price, in writing. We also check whether the model qualifies for assistance programs.
Floors and furniture protected, wall plate position marked level, wall opening located.
A single opening, with the slope the drain needs to flow outside.
Set on a stand raised above the snow, with the clearances the manufacturer requires.
Connected, insulated and protected. The opening is then sealed against water, cold air and insects.
A dedicated circuit and an accessible disconnect near the outdoor unit.
Leak test, vacuum, then start-up and a check of heating and cooling.
Remote, modes, filters: we show you the essentials before we leave.

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.
- Clean the indoor unit's filters.
- Clear leaves and debris left on the outdoor unit by winter.
- Test cooling before the first hot days.
- Clean the filters more often when the unit runs a lot.
- Keep plants away from the outdoor unit.
- Check that no water drips from the indoor unit.
- Rake the leaves around the outdoor unit.
- Test heating before the first cold days.
- Book periodic maintenance before winter.
- Keep snow away from the stand and the front of the unit.
- Let the unit defrost: it is normal.
- Never hit the ice on the fins; call us if the unit stays iced up.
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. In heating mode, the outdoor unit can produce water.
During defrost cycles. That water must drain away without forming ice.
2. You pick the capacity with a simple square-footage rule.
Windows, insulation, orientation and how the room is used all count. Capacity is chosen on site.
3. A multi-zone connects several indoor heads to a single condenser.
One head per room, all on the same condenser. Each room keeps its own temperature.
4. The disconnect can sit behind the patio furniture.
It must stay accessible: it is what shuts the unit off for service.
