  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.

Innovating Comfort with Precision: A Closer Look at the Haxxair T2D Mini Split Installation

When it comes to enhancing home comfort with advanced heating and cooling solutions, AirGreen stands at the forefront, especially in the vibrant community of Côte Saint-Luc, Montreal. Our recent installation of the Haxxair T2D Mini Split system not only underscores our commitment to delivering top-tier HVAC solutions but also highlights the unique aspects of this model, favored by many for its efficiency and innovative features.

A Detailed Overview of the Haxxair T2D Mini Split

The Haxxair T2D is a standout model in the world of mini split systems, boasting an impressive 18,000 BTU capacity that can handle both the sweltering summers and chilly winters of Montreal. One of the key highlights of this system is its remarkable 23.2 SEER efficiency rating, which ensures substantial energy savings throughout its lifecycle. The unit's ability to operate effectively down to -25°C makes it an invaluable asset during Montreal's harsh winter months.

Equipped with 3D inverter technology and an optimized inner air duct, the Haxxair T2D maximizes airflow and minimizes noise, ensuring a quiet environment conducive to relaxation and sleep. Its ultra-quiet mode, leveraging advanced acoustics and airflow principles, significantly reduces noise levels to a mere whisper, making it an ideal choice for families seeking peace and tranquility.

Furthermore, the installation incorporates advanced features such as R-410A gas for eco-friendliness and a sophisticated heating element in the compressor’s condensation tray. This feature is crucial for preventing ice accumulation during winter, thereby enhancing the unit’s durability and performance.

Strategic Installation for Optimal Performance

The installation process at a charming residence in Côte Saint-Luc was meticulously planned and executed by our skilled technicians. The Haxxair T2D was strategically placed to ensure optimal performance and ease of maintenance. Given the unit's sleek design—measuring 33.88 x 12.19 x 25.56 inches for the exterior component—it blends seamlessly with the property's aesthetics without compromising on functionality.

Our team took special care to install the unit with high-quality 1/4 - 1/2 inch pipes and a 220V connection, adhering to the highest standards of safety and efficiency. This setup not only enhances the overall energy efficiency but also ensures a smoother operation with minimal environmental impact.

Enhanced Features for Montreal’s Climate

The Haxxair T2D comes with a special 8°C heating mode, which is particularly beneficial for homeowners in Montreal. This mode prevents the indoor environment from dropping below a certain temperature, thus protecting the premises from the risks associated with freezing temperatures, such as burst pipes or structural damage during extended absences in winter.

Moreover, the LogisVert Grant by Hydro-Québec acknowledges this model’s energy efficiency by offering a substantial rebate, making the Haxxair T2D an even more attractive option for eco-conscious consumers.

Customer Satisfaction and Future Outlook

The homeowners were thoroughly impressed with the swift and professional installation process and the immediate improvement in their home’s climate control. The Haxxair T2D’s ability to maintain consistent temperatures and its user-friendly interface have greatly enhanced their daily comfort and convenience.

AirGreen continues to be a leader in providing cutting-edge HVAC solutions that not only meet but exceed client expectations. This installation exemplifies our commitment to delivering quality, reliability, and innovation in every project we undertake.

For those residing in Montreal and its surrounding areas, including Laval, Longueuil, and the North and South Shores, choosing AirGreen means opting for expertise, efficiency, and exceptional customer service.

Your numbers

And at your place?

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.

    Through the seasons

    What to do, season by season

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

    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.
