  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.

Transforming Comfort with Precision and Style

In the quaint town of Repentigny, a local homeowner recently experienced a significant upgrade to their home’s comfort system with the installation of the Gree Extreme Wall-Mounted Heat Pump, a pinnacle of efficiency and design. AirGreen, a leader in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning services throughout Montreal and its surrounding areas, was at the forefront of this sophisticated installation. Let’s dive into the details of this project that not only enhanced the homeowner's living space but also embodied the epitome of modern heating technology.

Innovative Installation in a Challenging Space

Nestled next to the bustling kitchen area, the installation of the Gree Extreme indoor unit presented a unique challenge. The desired location, not being an exterior wall, required a creative approach to route the connecting pipes. Our skilled technicians devised a smart solution by running the pipes along the near-ceiling wall, ensuring they remained unobtrusive yet functional. Post-installation, a professional plasterer was brought in to encase the pipes in a custom-designed box, finished with gyprock and paint matched precisely to the existing walls, rendering the installation practically invisible.

Top-Tier Technology Meets Aesthetic Appeal

The Gree Extreme model is not just about superior functionality; it’s also a statement of style. With its sleek design and compact dimensions, the unit blends seamlessly into any decor, further enhanced by the discreet pipe installation. The Heat Pump operates at an impressively low sound pressure level, making it one of the quietest on the market. This ensures that comfort comes without the common annoyance of noisy operation, making it a perfect fit for the serene environment of a home.

Unmatched Efficiency and Comfort

The Gree Extreme is renowned for its Energy Star® certification, symbolizing peak efficiency. With a 30.5 SEER rating, it stands out for its energy-saving capabilities. This model is equipped with G10 inverter technology, allowing for faster room temperature adjustments while reducing energy consumption. Additionally, the ability to heat effectively even at temperatures as low as -30°C makes this heat pump a stalwart companion through the harsh Canadian winters.

Smart Features for Enhanced Usability

Equipped with WiFi capabilities and the Gree+ app, the homeowner can effortlessly control the heat pump remotely, ensuring optimal comfort from anywhere. The unit's intelligent defrosting system prevents the buildup of ice without the need for manual intervention, a necessary feature in the frosty Canadian climate.

A Financially Smart Choice

This installation was not only about adding comfort but also about maximizing financial savings. The homeowner took advantage of a substantial $1,704 provincial grant provided by the LogisVert Program, making this high-quality upgrade more accessible. The full 10-year warranty on parts, labor, and compressor, courtesy of Gree Canada, further underscores the value of this investment, promising years of reliable service and peace of mind.

Conclusion: A Testament to Expertise and Quality

This installation showcases AirGreen’s commitment to delivering high-quality HVAC solutions that are both effective and aesthetically pleasing. The seamless integration of the Gree Extreme heat pump into the customer's home in Repentigny not only enhances the comfort and usability of the space but also aligns with sustainable practices, thanks to its energy-efficient design. It’s a prime example of how advanced technology and thoughtful installation can come together to create a harmonious living environment.

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.

    • Clean the indoor unit's filters.
    • Clear leaves and debris left on the outdoor unit by winter.
    • Test cooling before the first hot days.

    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.
