02 · Where it goes

Recessed in the ceiling: for rooms where you want nothing on the walls.

We validate the location with you during the visit.

Ideal for

A living room, a kitchen, a finished basement or a shop: where the walls are taken or must stay clear.

To plan for

Space in the ceiling to recess the unit, and the condensate drainage, planned from the quotation.

Good to know

Only the grille stays visible. We place the cassette so the air spreads across the whole room.

03 · Dimensions

570 mm square, recessed in the ceiling.

05 · Clean air

FrostWash, ViroSense S and leak detector.

Run the cycle: ice traps the dust, the melt carries it away.

  1. FreezeThe room’s humidity freezes on the coil and traps dust and mould.
  2. ThawThe ice melts and carries the contaminants away: the airflow stays good, year after year.

Hitachi freeze-and-thaw process, according to the airHome Multi brochure.

Removed from the coil after a single FrostWash cycle: tests by the Kitasato Research Center of Environmental Science (test no. 2020_0650, model RAS-X22K), cited in Hitachi’s brochures.

ViroSense SThe cassette’s filter

Blocks 100% of mould and inhibits 99% of viruses and bacteria, according to Hitachi.

Smart EcoPresence sensor

Reduced power (Smart Eco) or off (Auto-Off) when the room is empty.

R-32Built-in leak detector

The alarm goes through the receiver kit (optional, included with the wireless remote), according to Hitachi.

06 · The system

A head of the airHome Multi system: one compressor, up to 5 rooms.

The ceiling mini-cassette combines with wall heads, floor consoles or slim ducted units on the same outdoor unit. We validate the combination and its AHRI number on quotation.

07 · Heat, degree by degree

The system behind your ceiling mini-cassette, from 8°C to -20°C.

The heat comes from the RAM-G compressor: here is its maximum capacity certified by NEEP in an all non-ducted combination, and the COP at that output.

09 · Hydro-Québec’s LogisVert

LogisVert is calculated on the system, never on the head.

The amount depends on the compressor and the AHRI number of the installed combination. On our multi-zone product pages: $745 to $1,920.

Multi 24,000 · RAM-G24N3HAA$1,920
Multi 42,000 · RAM-G42N5HAA$1,500
Multi 36,000 · RAM-G36N4HAA$1,250

ENERGY STAR cold climate: $120 per 1,000 BTU/h at -8°CENERGY STAR standard: $50 per 1,000 BTU/h

The LogisVert amount is per system (the compressor and its heads), never per head.

ENERGY STAR required

Since November 26, 2025, only ENERGY STAR certified units qualify for the grant.

Nine months to claim

The claim must be filed within 9 months of installation.

Capped at cost

The grant never exceeds 100% of the purchase and installation cost before taxes.

The AHRI number decides

Hydro-Québec confirms the amount with the AHRI number of the installed combination.
