Bringing Year-Round Comfort to Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie
In one of the charming neighborhoods of Montreal, Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie, AirGreen recently completed an impressive installation of a Sharp ZU1 15,000 BTU mini split heat pump. This project not only brought a modern heating and cooling solution to the homeowners but also aligned perfectly with Hydro-Québec’s LogisVert grant for energy-efficient equipment, offering them a $2,172 rebate.
Our team at AirGreen takes pride in every installation, but this one in particular highlights how the right equipment and professional installation can make a real difference in home comfort—even in the harshest conditions.
Why the Sharp ZU1 is a Game-Changer for This Project
The Sharp ZU1 15,000 BTU heat pump is the first of its kind to use the innovative R-32 refrigerant, making it not only environmentally friendly but also future-proof with upcoming regulations. What makes this machine stand out from its competitors is its exceptional heating capacity, performing flawlessly down to an incredible -27°C. Perfect for Montreal’s icy winters, this unit ensures that no matter how cold it gets outside, the home stays cozy and warm inside.
Key Features of the Sharp ZU1 Mini Split Heat Pump:
- Cooling Capacity: 15,000 BTU
- Heating Capacity: Operates down to -27°C
- Energy Efficiency Rating: 24.0 SEER, making it one of the most efficient units on the market
- WiFi Connectivity: Control your unit remotely via your smartphone
- Plasmacluster Technology: Unique to Sharp, this feature purifies the air by eliminating allergens, mold, and viruses
With these standout features, it’s clear that the Sharp ZU1 is built not just for performance but for enhancing indoor air quality and energy savings.
The Story Behind the Installation: Tailoring Comfort to a Modern Home
This particular installation took place in a home that had previously relied on older, less efficient heating solutions. The homeowners were looking for an upgrade that would not only reduce their energy bills but also provide year-round comfort without sacrificing performance in extreme weather conditions.
After careful consultation, we recommended the Sharp ZU1 mini split system, as it offered the perfect balance of efficiency, power, and indoor air quality improvement. Given that the machine qualifies for both provincial and federal grants, the investment was an easy decision for the homeowners.
One of the unique aspects of this installation was the layout of the home. The Coanda airflow control feature of the Sharp ZU1 allowed us to optimize air distribution throughout the house, ensuring every room received uniform heating and cooling. This feature, coupled with the Plasmacluster technology, ensured that the air circulating inside the home was as clean and fresh as it was comfortable.
Installation Details: Precision, Performance, and Perfection
Our team worked meticulously to ensure that every aspect of the installation met our high standards. The indoor unit, with dimensions of 41.42 x 9.80 x 12.44 inches, was installed in the living area, strategically placed for maximum efficiency and airflow. Its sleek design blended seamlessly into the modern décor, offering both form and function.
For the exterior unit, which measured 30.72 x 10.59 x 21.25 inches, we chose a spot that allowed for optimal ventilation while minimizing sound levels. With an exterior noise level of only 49.0 dB(A), the homeowners were pleasantly surprised by how quiet the system was, even when operating at full capacity.
The installation also involved running new pipes—1/4" for liquid and 3/8" for gas—and wiring the system to a 220V power source. We ensured everything was properly insulated and secured, leaving the home with a clean, professional finish. This attention to detail is why AirGreen is a trusted name in HVAC installations across Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, North Shore, and South Shore.
Benefits of the Sharp ZU1 Heat Pump: More Than Just Temperature Control
Installing the Sharp ZU1 offers homeowners much more than simple temperature control. This mini split system is designed to provide:
- Superior Air Quality: With Plasmacluster technology, the air inside the home is purified of allergens, mold, viruses, and odors.
- Energy Savings: The unit’s high 24.0 SEER efficiency rating means lower energy consumption, which translates into reduced utility bills for the homeowners.
- Environmentally Friendly Refrigerant: The R-32 refrigerant used in this unit has a significantly lower global warming potential compared to traditional refrigerants, making it a more sustainable choice.
- Smart Technology: With WiFi connectivity, the homeowners can control the system from anywhere, ensuring their home is always at the perfect temperature.
A Future-Proof Investment with Government Support
In addition to the $2,172 provincial grant, this installation also qualified for a $2,500 federal grant, helping the homeowners significantly offset the initial cost. These grants are part of broader efforts by the government to encourage energy-efficient upgrades, making now the perfect time for homeowners to invest in systems like the Sharp ZU1.
