A Custom HVAC Installation for a Laval Warehouse: Efficiency, Discretion, and Comfort
At AirGreen, we understand that the heating and cooling needs of industrial buildings differ significantly from those of residential homes. That’s why our team offers custom HVAC solutions, tailored to the layout and unique challenges of each site. Today, we’re showcasing a large-scale project successfully carried out in a warehouse in Laval, where we replaced an outdated heating system with a high-efficiency central ducted heat pump, providing comfort, energy efficiency, and discreet integration in a demanding professional space.
A Major Challenge: Heating a Large Poorly Insulated Warehouse in Laval
This industrial building located in the Chomedey sector of Laval had a common issue: significant heat loss, an outdated electric baseboard heating system that consumed a lot of energy, and no air conditioning at all. Employees complained about freezing temperatures in the winter and stifling heat in the summer. Our client’s objective was clear:
restore the thermal comfort of the space while reducing energy costs and modernizing the HVAC infrastructure without disrupting the business operations.
The Solution: A Central Ducted Heat Pump System Adapted for Industrial Use
After a detailed site assessment, our team at AirGreen recommended the installation of a ducted heat pump system, a solution perfectly suited to the needs of large open spaces such as warehouses. Unlike traditional wall-mounted units, this concealed duct system allows for:
-
Even heat distribution throughout the entire warehouse
-
Minimal visual impact thanks to hidden ducts and discreet ceiling vents
-
Centralized management of heating and cooling, ideal for large areas
-
Better energy efficiency compared to electric baseboard heaters
The model chosen for this installation was a Goodman central heat pump, offering a capacity of 60,000 BTU, enough to effectively heat and cool the entire warehouse. Its high SEER and HSPF ratings make it an excellent choice for businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint while maintaining optimal comfort year-round.
Installation Challenges and Custom Technical Solutions
Installing a ducted HVAC system in an already operational industrial space is never a simple task. At AirGreen, we made sure to:
-
Work outside business hours to avoid disrupting warehouse activities
-
Carefully route the ducts through structural beams without compromising the building’s integrity
-
Design custom air distribution zones to optimize airflow and prevent temperature variations in different sections of the warehouse
Our technicians also installed an advanced programmable thermostat, allowing warehouse managers to control temperature zones based on occupancy or time of day—ideal for managing energy consumption intelligently.
A Real Transformation: From Cold Storage to a Comfortable Work Environment
The results were immediate. Within days of completing the installation, employees reported a marked improvement in thermal comfort, and energy bills started showing a clear reduction thanks to the system’s superior efficiency. The customer also appreciated the quiet operation of the system, which significantly improved the working atmosphere.
This project in Laval once again demonstrated AirGreen’s know-how in HVAC for commercial and industrial spaces. Thanks to our team’s precision, attention to detail, and ability to adapt to any environment, we were able to offer a turnkey solution that greatly improved the building’s performance.
