Successful Emergency Installation: How AirGreen Replaced a Faulty Multi-Zone Heat Pump in the Middle of Winter in Longueuil
Context
Responding Quickly to Installation Needs in the Winter Season
Winter in Longueuil can be particularly harsh, and nothing is more important than a functioning multi-zone heat pump to maintain optimal comfort indoors. However, when a heating system breaks down in the middle of winter, the situation becomes urgent. This was the case for one of our clients in Longueuil, where we had to carry out an emergency installation to replace a faulty multi-zone heat pump. Learn how AirGreen managed this complex situation to provide a fast and effective solution.
1. The Challenge of a Winter Breakdown: Urgency and Speed
In the middle of winter, a multi-zone heat pump breakdown can quickly transform a comfortable living space into a freezing environment, jeopardizing the safety and well-being of the occupants. Our client in Longueuil found themselves with a malfunctioning unit that was no longer responding, leaving several areas of the home without heating. The first step in our intervention was to assess the urgency of the situation and define a quick solution.
AirGreen Solution: We immediately contacted the client to understand the nature of the problem and proposed a fast replacement of the faulty multi-zone heat pump with a high-performing model more suited to their needs. The goal was to minimize discomfort and ensure an installation within the shortest possible time.
2. Choosing the Replacement Model: Performance and Efficiency
Choosing the right model is crucial, especially when replacing a unit in the middle of winter. In this case, we opted for a Fujitsu brand multi-zone heat pump, known for its reliability and energy efficiency. The model selected was a Fujitsu AOU18RLXFZ multi-zone heat pump, with a capacity of 18,000 BTU, perfect for a medium-sized home, offering optimal performance even in extreme weather conditions.

-
Model: AOU18RLXFZ
-

We selected this model considering the size of the home and the need for an efficient, long-lasting heating solution while meeting performance requirements during winter.
3. The Emergency Installation Process: Speed and Precision
The installation had to be carried out urgently, which required meticulous planning and quick resource management. Upon arrival in Longueuil, our installation team performed a full assessment of the existing system, removing the old unit and installing the new multi-zone heat pump within 24 hours. Coordination with the client was key to ensuring the process went smoothly.
AirGreen Solution: Our team worked closely together to ensure a fast and accurate installation process. We carefully checked the ductwork, installed both the indoor and outdoor units optimally, and conducted a full system startup before handing it back over to the client. In total, the installation was completed in a very short time, allowing the client to enjoy a comfortable home in record time.
4. Results and Benefits of the Installation
Once the installation was completed, we ran performance tests to ensure that the heat pump was working correctly and that all areas of the home were being heated evenly. The client quickly noticed improved thermal comfort and greater energy efficiency from their new system. Thanks to the use of R-32 refrigerant and the advanced technology in the Fujitsu model, energy consumption was optimized, resulting in long-term cost savings.
