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.
A Seamless Blend of Comfort and Innovation
Introduction to Our Latest HVAC Triumph
At AirGreen, we're not just about providing heating and cooling solutions; we're about creating environments where comfort meets convenience. Our latest project in Laval stands as a testament to this philosophy. We had the opportunity to install the Gree Free Match Extreme TripleZone Heat Pump, a top-tier system known for its robust performance and superior energy efficiency.
Project Overview: Tackling the Challenges with Expertise
Our project site was a charming residence in Laval, where the homeowner sought a sophisticated yet unobtrusive HVAC solution. The Gree Free Match Extreme, with its 36,000 BTU compressor and three 12,000 BTU indoor units, was an ideal choice. This system not only promises significant energy savings but also operates with a whisper-quiet sound level, ensuring a serene home environment.
Strategic Installation for Optimal Efficiency
The installation process was categorized as medium difficulty, primarily due to the unique request of situating two indoor units on the same wall as the compressor. This layout simplified the initial stages of the setup. However, the placement of the third unit on the opposite side of the house introduced complexity, requiring strategic planning to maintain the aesthetic integrity of the home.
Innovative Solutions for Aesthetic Integrity
Our team excelled in implementing a solution that involved routing all necessary piping and wiring discreetly inside the walls. This approach not only preserved the home's visual appeal but also exemplified our commitment to detail-oriented, customer-focused service. The collaboration with a professional plasterer post-installation ensured that any signs of work were seamlessly blended into the home's existing decor with matching paint and gyprock finishes.
Features and Benefits of the Gree Free Match Extreme

Customer Satisfaction: Beyond Expectations

This satisfaction underscores our dedication to providing not just HVAC solutions, but enhancements to living spaces.

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.
