Quebec winters spare no one, and businesses located on the South Shore of Montréal know this better than anyone. With freezing temperatures and short days, keeping a comfortable and energy-efficient work environment is essential. At AirGreen, we understand the challenges that merchants, property managers, and industrial operators face when it comes to choosing a reliable, durable, and cost-effective commercial heating system. That’s why we support each client with top-tier expertise, personalized advice, and installations done to the highest standards.
Why optimize your commercial heating system on the South Shore?
South Shore businesses—whether in Longueuil, Brossard, Saint-Hubert, Châteauguay, or Saint-Lambert—face significant heating costs every winter. This includes not only energy expenses, but also ongoing maintenance, frequent repairs, and efficiency losses.
Investing in a high-performance commercial heating solution allows you to:
-
Significantly reduce electricity and gas bills.
-
Offer optimal thermal comfort to employees and customers.
-
Extend the lifespan of your equipment.
-
Comply with new environmental standards through energy-efficient equipment.
-
Qualify for generous grants offered by Hydro-Québec, Énergir, and other government programs.
Case study: replacing an outdated central system in Brossard
We were recently contacted by the owner of a commercial building in Brossard, managing a 3-storey office building heated by an old, inefficient oil-based system that was extremely costly in the winter. After a detailed assessment of the building’s energy needs and structural limitations, our team recommended installing a 60,000 BTU Bosch BOVA central heat pump with Inverter technology, paired with a Bosch BVA air handler.
Installation steps:
-
Complete thermal analysis of the building to determine heat loss.
-
Safe disconnection and removal of the old oil system.
-
Installation of the new central heat pump, with optimized ductwork for even heat distribution across all three levels.
-
Electrical connections and setup of a smart thermostat for remote and real-time control.
-
Performance testing and client training for daily operation of the system.
Result: nearly a 42% reduction in annual heating costs, improved office comfort, and eligibility for a $5,800 grant through Hydro-Québec’s LogisVert program.

Practical tips for businesses looking to improve their heating
-
Have your current system evaluated: a thermal analysis can reveal major heat losses.
-
Choose energy-efficient equipment: central heat pumps with Inverter compressors can offer up to 50% savings.
-
Don’t wait for winter to start your project: scheduling your installation in fall or spring avoids peak-season delays.

Take advantage of grants while they’re still available: they change frequently, and funding envelopes are often limited.
