Installation of a SHARP BU Triple Zone Heat Pump in Boisbriand

Why the SHARP BU Triple Zone Heat Pump?

The SHARP BU heat pump is not just another HVAC unit; it’s a top-tier solution engineered to perform efficiently in the extreme Canadian climate. Here’s why this machine has earned its reputation:

  • WiFi Connectivity: The system can be easily controlled via smartphone, offering convenience and flexibility for busy homeowners.
  • Quiet Operation: With an outdoor sound pressure level of only 50 dB(A), the SHARP BU operates whisper-quiet, making it perfect for residential settings.

4. Robust Warranty for Peace of Mind

SHARP stands behind their products with an outstanding 10-10-10 warranty—10 years on the compressor, parts, and labor. Additionally, the extended warranty ensures complete confidence and reliability for years to come.

The Installation Process in Boisbriand

The installation began with the careful placement of the 33.47 x 13 x 27.94 exterior unit. The compact size of the outdoor unit allowed us to position it discreetly without compromising aesthetics or space. Next, our technicians expertly installed the three indoor units—each placed strategically for maximum comfort and efficiency:

  1. Living Room: To maintain an inviting and relaxing space year-round.
  2. Master Bedroom: For uninterrupted, climate-controlled sleep.
  3. Home Office: Ensuring a comfortable working environment regardless of outdoor conditions.

Achieving Energy Savings with Hydro-Québec’s $3,000 LogisVert Grant

One of the highlights of this project is the eligibility of the SHARP BU system for Hydro-Québec’s $3,000 LogisVert Grant. This substantial rebate makes energy-efficient upgrades like this more affordable for homeowners, aligning with our mission to provide cost-effective and sustainable HVAC solutions.

The Results: A Perfect Balance of Comfort and Efficiency

Post-installation, our client immediately noticed the difference. Each zone of their home is now perfectly conditioned, no matter the season. They also appreciated the WiFi functionality, which allowed them to control temperatures from their smartphone, ensuring an optimal environment before they even stepped through the door.

The Plasmacluster technology was another standout feature for the family, particularly those sensitive to allergens. With purified air circulating throughout their home, they experienced not only enhanced comfort but also improved air quality and health benefits.

Your numbers

The job tools

Two quick checks with real numbers: what heat costs, and what your current heaters add up to in BTU/h.

Before / afterThe cost of the same heat

Baseboards and electric furnaces turn 1 kWh of electricity into 1 kWh of heat. A heat pump delivers more: that is its COP. At Hydro-Québec’s rate D (11.142¢/kWh above 40 kWh a day, since 1 April 2026):

Before · baseboards11.142¢/kWh
After · heat pump–

Hydro-Québec: a heat pump can be up to three times more efficient than baseboards for heating in the colder months.

Estimate per kWh of heat, at the chosen temperature, using the certified COP from the product page. Taxes, access charge and backup heat not included.

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.

    The steps

    How the job unfolds

    The main steps of this kind of job at AirGreen. Every house has its quirks: the estimate brings them out.

    Step 1 of 9The on-site estimate

    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.

    The tour

    What we check on a job like this one

    Each number is a point we check on site. Switch between summer and winter to watch air and heat move.

    Generic diagram: wall-mounted heat pump, indoor and outdoor units

    In summer, the outdoor unit rejects the house's heat outside.

    Generic illustration of this type of installation, not a survey of this job site. Tap a number.

    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.

    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.
