Seasonal allergies? How a well-maintained wall-mounted heat pump can help you breathe easier in spring

Breathing freely in spring: a challenge for many households in Montréal, Laval, Longueuil, the North Shore and the South Shore. Every year, seasonal allergies disrupt the comfort of thousands of residents. At AirGreen, we know that choosing and maintaining a wall-mounted heat pump can make a real difference in indoor air quality — and therefore in your respiratory well-being.

A little-known truth: your allergy symptoms often come from indoors

We often associate spring allergies with pollen carried through the outdoor air. But in reality, it’s indoor pollutants – dust mites, mold, dust, and infiltrated pollen – that accumulate inside and worsen symptoms.

This is where the wall-mounted heat pump comes in — a heating and air conditioning unit that plays a crucial role in filtration and indoor air quality.

Why a well-maintained wall-mounted heat pump makes all the difference

A modern wall-mounted heat pump, when professionally installed and maintained, helps to:

  • Effectively filter allergens, thanks to high-density or electrostatic filters.

  • Reduce indoor humidity, limiting the growth of mold and dust mites.

  • Ensure steady, gentle air circulation, ideal for sensitive airways.

  • Maintain a stable indoor temperature without the excessive dryness caused by traditional systems.

HVAC maintenance: an essential habit in spring

Spring is the ideal time to schedule maintenance for your wall-mounted heat pump. Why? Because this is precisely when trees release their pollen, and your unit needs to perform at its best.

At AirGreen, we offer a complete HVAC maintenance service, including:

  • Cleaning filters and evaporators,

  • Inspecting the refrigerant circuit,

  • Disinfecting the wall units to eliminate bacteria and mold,

  • And verifying energy performance.

Each service visit is designed to optimize your system’s efficiency while enhancing the quality of the air you breathe.

Real-world example of installation and maintenance: Gree wall-mounted heat pump in Longueuil

Recently, our team worked in Longueuil for a client suffering from chronic allergic rhinitis. We installed a Gree Lomo 18,000 BTU wall-mounted heat pump, known for:

  • Its built-in activated carbon filter,

  • Its "air purification" mode,

  • Its ability to maintain a stable temperature day and night.

Three months later, after a spring maintenance follow-up, the client told us they noticed a clear improvement in breathing and a significant reduction in allergy symptoms.

Mistakes to avoid for people with allergies

Many households install HVAC systems without considering their impact on respiratory health. Here are some common mistakes to avoid:

  • Neglecting to clean filters: a clogged filter no longer traps allergens.

  • DIY installation of a wall-mounted unit without understanding filtration standards.

  • Choosing an undersized unit, which must overwork and fails to circulate air properly.

  • Delaying spring maintenance, even though it’s critical during peak pollen season.

Recommended brands and models for allergy sufferers

At AirGreen, we recommend brands such as:

  • Fujitsu (KZAH R-32 models): excellent filtration, advanced dehumidification, very quiet.

  • Gree (Lomo, Extreme, Sapphire): great value for filtration and efficiency.

  • Sharp ZU1: built-in air purification system and Plasmacluster technology.

  • Bosch (BIVA R-454B): high-end performance in fine particle filtration.

These units are carefully installed by our team and run at their best thanks to our annual maintenance program.
