Understanding split-system (multi-zone) heat pumps
Definition of a multi-zone system
A multi-zone split heat pump is a system consisting of an outdoor unit connected to several wall-mounted indoor units , allowing multiple rooms to be heated or cooled independently. This type of installation is ideal for multi-story houses or homes where each occupant wants personalized comfort.

LogisVert subsidy amounts for multi-zone heat pumps
Multi-zone heat pumps are eligible in two distinct categories:
1. Efficient heat pump (standard or high efficiency)
Amount varies depending on the model and power in BTU/h. The amount is specified in the list of eligible products published by Hydro-Québec.
2. High-efficiency heat pump + caulking work
If the multi-zone system is high efficiency and complete weatherstripping is performed, the amount awarded can be as high as $140 per 1,000 BTU/h at -8°C , which is a significant grant (often between $1,400 and $2,300).

Concrete example of a project carried out by AirGreen
In Repentigny , we recently installed a Fujitsu KZAH R-32 multi-zone heat pump in a two-story home. The client wanted to heat three separate zones: the basement, the living room, and the master bedroom. Thanks to our expertise:
-
We sized the equipment at 27,000 BTU .
-
The installation was completed in 2 days , including performance testing.
-
