GREE VITA wall air conditioners. It cools, it does not heat. What GREE Canada actually rates each size at, and why LogisVert pays nothing.

Four VITA cooling-only sizes, from 9,000 to 24,000 BTU/h on the label. For a home already heated another way, by baseboards or hot water, that only wants to stay cool in summer. The number in the name is a size class: for two of the four, the rating GREE Canada publishes is lower.

17,400 BTU/hGREE Canada’s rating for the “18,000”, with a range of 3,753 to 18,425 BTU/h: 600 below its name.
SEER2 19.5The best seasonal rating of the four belongs to the smallest, the 9,000. The 12,000 trails at 17.5.

Label and rating

Four names, four ratings. Only the 12,000 matches.

In a separate table for the cooling-only version, GREE Canada publishes the rated capacity, the range, the power input and two efficiency ratings. Here they are side by side, then against your number.

GREE Canada, VITA brochure, document No. 052024, “VITA (cooling only)” table, read Oct. 26, 2026. Efficiencies in BTU/W·h; in bold, the rated capacities, then the best SEER2 and the best EER2. “Gap from the name”: rated capacity minus the size in the model name.

The number from your estimate

Enter the cooling the room needs, in BTU/h, as calculated at the visit or in a quote. The tool compares it with each size’s rated capacity, not the number in its name.

What the brochure prints

A short table, and what is not in it.

The VITA cooling-only table runs nine rows: the two model numbers, the AHRI number, the power supply, the capacity, the power input, SEER2, EER2 and Energy Star. Sound, dimensions and heating appear in the same brochure, but for the VITA heat pumps only.

AirGreen × GREE

Cool summers, without touching the home’s heating.

GREE builds the VITA and publishes its rating. AirGreen calculates the room’s heat gain, picks the size from the rating and installs the unit.

GREE

What GREE brings

  • A table of its ownGREE Canada publishes the cooling-only version apart from the heat pumps, with its capacity, range and SEER2 and EER2 ratings.
  • A range, not a single speedEach size modulates between a published minimum and maximum: the 12,000, for example, from 2,388 to 13,307 BTU/h.
  • Sold as an air conditionerOn gree.ca, the four outdoor units are “Air Conditioner” variants, next to the heat-pump variants of the same Vita family.

The result: a room cooled by a VITA sized to its heat gain, installed by a GREE Elite dealer.

Before the install: the circuit, the pair, the refrigerant.

The circuit

208-230 V, 60 Hz, single phase, for all four sizes. The brochure prints no MCA or maximum protection for these models: we read them on the outdoor unit’s nameplate before planning the breaker.

GREE Canada 052024

The pairs to respect

Each size pairs one specific indoor unit with one outdoor unit under an AHRI number. On the 24,000, the two numbers differ more than on the other sizes: GWC24ATEXF inside, GWC24QEXF outside. That is indeed the pair GREE Canada publishes.

GREE Canada 052024

The refrigerant

R410A for the whole VITA cooling-only line. At GREE Canada, the R32 Vita exists only as a heat pump.

The 12,000, 18,000 and 24,000 clear this threshold; the 9,000 does not. It changes nothing: the other three conditions already fail.

Under guide v1.10, LogisVert is calculated per 1,000 BTU/h of heating at −8 °C: indicative rates of $50 for an ENERGY STAR heat pump, $120 if it is also certified cold climate. With no heating, there is nothing to multiply. To heat and aim for the grant, see the GREE wall heat pumps: the amount is checked AHRI number by AHRI number on Hydro-Québec’s list dated Oct. 27, 2026.

Questions

LogisVert, rating, heating: what people ask us about the VITA cooling-only unit.

Does the VITA cooling-only unit qualify for LogisVert?
No. The participation guide (version 1.10, Sept. 15, 2026) pays only for ENERGY STAR certified heat pumps that heat and cool. Its four AHRI numbers are also missing from Hydro-Québec’s list of Oct. 27, 2026.
Why is the “18,000” rated 17,400 BTU/h?
“18,000” is the size class in the model name; GREE Canada’s brochure gives its rated capacity, 17,400 BTU/h, with a range of 3,753 to 18,425. The “24,000” is in the same situation, at 22,000.
Which size is the most efficient?
Over the season, the 9,000, with a SEER2 of 19.5. On EER2, the 24,000 leads with 11.6. The 12,000 has the lowest of both: 17.5 and 8.7.
Can it heat a little, in spring or fall?
No. GREE Canada sells it as an “Air Conditioner” variant and its table has no heating row. The VITA units that heat are heat pumps, with other model numbers.
Can I run it from a wall controller?
The VITA brochure names an XE-71 wired controller and a YAP1F remote for the line, without saying which comes with which model. We check it against your unit’s full model number; the controllers are on the GREE thermostats page.
How many BTU/h for my bedroom?
It depends on the room’s heat gain: windows, orientation, floor, insulation. We calculate it at the visit, then take the size whose rated capacity covers it. The tool at the top of the page makes that comparison with your number.
