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.

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.
Elevating Comfort with Cutting-Edge Technology
In the picturesque neighborhood of Candiac on Montreal's South Shore, a family recently experienced a significant upgrade in home comfort and energy efficiency with the installation of a Haxxair T2D Mini Split system. This advanced 18,000 BTU model not only promises a serene indoor environment but also aligns with sustainable energy practices, making it an exemplary choice for modern households.
Optimal Efficiency Meets Sleek Design
The Haxxair T2D is renowned for its superior efficiency, boasting an impressive 23.2 SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio). This metric signifies its ability to utilize energy effectively, translating into substantial savings on the Hydro-Québec bills for homeowners. The model also qualifies for the $580 LogisVert Grant by Hydro-Québec, further enhancing its appeal to eco-conscious consumers.
Technical Specifications and Features:
- AHRI Certified: With an AHRI certification number of 204628476, this model guarantees performance as per industry standards.
- Warranty: Offering a robust 10-year warranty on both the compressor and parts, the Haxxair T2D ensures long-term reliability and peace of mind.
- Sound Pressure Levels: Its operation is whisper-quiet, ranging from 34 to 45 dB(A), thanks to the meticulously designed indoor air duct structure that minimizes noise, ensuring uninterrupted sleep or work from home sessions.
- Climate Control Capabilities: Equipped to handle the harsh Canadian winters, it features a heating capacity effective up to -25°C and includes a heating element in the condensation tray to prevent ice accumulation on the outdoor unit.
Installation Story: A Seamless Integration
The installation process in Candiac was seamless, thanks to AirGreen's skilled technicians. The chosen location for both the indoor and outdoor units was strategic, ensuring optimal performance and minimal aesthetic impact on the home’s interior and exterior. The outdoor unit was installed with precision, with its dimensions (33.88 x 12.19 x 25.56 inches) allowing it to blend easily with the surroundings, while the indoor unit (43.31 x 9.63 x 12.75 inches) was mounted to ensure efficient airflow throughout the living spaces.
Special Features for Enhanced Comfort
- Ultra-Quiet Mode: The Haxxair T2D’s ultra-quiet mode is a testament to its advanced design, prioritizing comfort by reducing noise levels to nearly imperceptible at night.
- Energy Savings Mode: Utilizing 3D inverter technology, the unit adjusts its output to suit the ambient temperature, which not only ensures efficient operation but also reduces electricity consumption by up to 30% annually.
- Special Heating 8°C Mode: For times when the temperature drops drastically, this model offers a special heating mode that prevents the interiors from freezing, ideal for maintaining a warm atmosphere in homes or chalets during extended absences in winter.

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.
