A smart choice for cooler summers and lower bills
When temperatures rise on the North Shore, many homeowners look for a reliable, energy-efficient, and budget-friendly air conditioning solution. At AirGreen, we’ve noticed a clear trend: more and more customers are choosing economical wall-mounted air conditioners that combine performance, durability, and eligibility for local rebates. These are units that don’t compromise on quality or energy efficiency, while still delivering an excellent return on investment.
Why are North Shore homeowners opting for budget-friendly air conditioners?
Residents of Blainville, Laval, Terrebonne, Boisbriand, and Sainte-Thérèse, to name just a few cities on the North Shore, often share the same priorities: cutting energy costs, getting a reliable unit, and benefiting from government grants. They’re therefore looking for high-efficiency wall-mounted air conditioners with inverter technology, capable of cooling their homes quickly while minimizing energy consumption.
Over the past few years, we’ve installed several of the most efficient and affordable models on the market, including:
-
Gree Lomo and Gree Bora
-
Fujitsu RL2 and KMTB
-
Sharp ZU1 and ZU2
-
Senville LETO
-
Tosot T12 and X5 Series
Real example: Installation of a Gree Lomo air conditioner in Sainte-Thérèse
One of our recent projects involved a 950 sq. ft. apartment in Sainte-Thérèse. The client wanted a unit that was efficient, quiet, and above all eligible for the Hydro-Québec LogisVert program. After a thermal assessment, we recommended a Gree Lomo 12,000 BTU wall-mounted air conditioner, Energy Star certified, with a SEER rating above 20.

The advantages of choosing a budget-friendly wall-mounted air conditioner
Outstanding energy efficiency
Most of the affordable air conditioners installed by AirGreen are equipped with variable-speed compressors (inverter technology). This means the unit automatically adjusts its speed based on real cooling needs, reducing energy spikes and lowering overall consumption.
Eligibility for LogisVert grants
Many of these units, while affordable upfront, are also eligible for grants of up to $1,860, depending on the unit’s capacity and energy efficiency criteria. Our advisors handle all the paperwork to help you easily benefit from these financial incentives.
Easy maintenance and long lifespan
At AirGreen, we focus on brands known for reliability. With regular HVAC maintenance and quality components, these units can run efficiently for 10 to 15 years, even with daily use.
Expert tips: How to choose the right budget-friendly wall-mounted AC?
Assess your real needs
An undersized or oversized unit will result in excessive consumption and thermal discomfort. We provide a complete thermal assessment to recommend the ideal capacity (in BTUs) based on your square footage, insulation, and sun exposure.
Compare SEER and HSPF ratings
A good budget-friendly air conditioner should have a SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) above 18 to ensure efficient cooling with low energy use. These ratings are clearly displayed on all the units we offer.
Check the warranties offered
Some affordable models offer up to 10 years of warranty on the compressor and parts—a significant advantage for peace of mind.
