Its manufacturer, Fujitsu General Limited, has gone by \u003cstrong\u003eGENERAL Inc.\u003c\/strong\u003e since January 1, 2026. Same factory, same manufacturer's brochure, same warranty: the nameplate changes, the machine stays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case in mind: the small boutique or neighbourhood salon, a single room, a suspended ceiling, a shop window that heats up in summer and a door that lets the cold in all winter. One \u003cstrong\u003ecompact cassette\u003c\/strong\u003e goes into the ceiling grid, and that is it for now. The outdoor unit, for its part, can feed up to 5 indoor units. The day the back room, the staff room or a treatment cabin needs its own temperature, a new unit is connected without changing the outdoor unit, as long as the total capacity stays within what the AOUK024SSAN7 can serve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is how a careful merchant thinks: pay for today's space without closing any doors. It still has to be planned at the very first visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFujitsu General was bought in August 2025 by Paloma Rheem Holdings, the owner of Rheem since 1988. The name change followed on January 1, 2026. The head office and the R\u0026amp;D centre stayed in Kawasaki, Japan; the factories, the AIRSTAGE products, the model numbers and the warranty program did not move. For Canada, sales moved to Rheem Canada in February 2026; AirGreen still buys from Groupe Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fujitsu brand is being phased out, and during the transition the same machine is sold under two names. Both show up in quotes, so we post both product pages, and the table lines up two identical columns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"tp-compare\"

One outdoor unit circulates refrigerant to one or several indoor units, and each one can get its own control. Indoor units are picked room by room from four families (wall-mounted, compact cassette, slim ducted, multi-position air handler), and they only work with J-7S outdoor units, just like their accessories. The product page does not lock in the type or the capacity of the indoor unit: both are chosen at your place, during the visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a store with a suspended ceiling, the cassette is often the obvious pick, for practical reasons:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eit takes the place of one tile in a \u003cstrong\u003estandard suspended ceiling\u003c\/strong\u003e, with no unit hanging on the wall behind the counter;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eits \u003cstrong\u003ebuilt-in condensate pump\u003c\/strong\u003e lifts the condensate, which leaves more freedom for routing the drain;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eits 6 fan speeds let it stay discreet when the store is quiet and move more air when it is full;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe family covers 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h, depending on the model selected.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat last point deserves a straight answer. A cassette from this range tops out at 18,000 BTU\/h, while the outdoor unit is 24,000 BTU. If the space needs more than one cassette can deliver, we will tell you at the visit, and the conversation will turn to a multi-position air handler on ducts or a second indoor unit. Better to hear it before the work than in the middle of a heat wave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn efficiency, this system shows a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 22.2\u003c\/strong\u003e, an HSPF2 of 11.3 and an EER2 of 15.7. Those three values reach the maximums the brochure gives for the J-7S series, where COP2 goes up to 4.64. In deep cold, the COP measured at −15 °C is 2.44. The table also gives heating capacities at −8 °C and at −15 °C; they are two different test points, to be read as they are. For the dimensioned drawings, see the manufacturer's spec sheet attached to the product, available in French and English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn winter, a store loses heat every time the door opens. The brochure cover announces heating down to \u003cstrong\u003e−26 °C\u003c\/strong\u003e, with no low-temperature lockout, and specifies that 2-ton units keep up to 89% of their capacity at −18 °C. The outdoor unit's base pan is heated, which helps defrost water drain away instead of freezing in place. In summer, cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors, a welcome margin in a back lane that traps heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe refrigerant is \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, a low global warming potential refrigerant. The series uses 12% less of it than the previous generation, and the system charge does not exceed 6 kg (13.2 lb). In a space open to the public, three options are worth discussing: the leak detection sensor kit offered for the cassette, the gas sensor kit with audible and visual alarm, and the refrigerant shut-off valve kit with backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA good part of the installation is decided at the first visit, especially if units are to be added later:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe location of the \u003cstrong\u003eoutdoor unit\u003c\/strong\u003e: at 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high it fits below a window, and the current generation is 15% lighter with a 16% smaller footprint than the previous one; behind a store, on the lane side, it sits on a base or a bracket;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe route of the \u003cstrong\u003erefrigerant piping\u003c\/strong\u003e, the cable and the drain to the cassette, keeping in mind the rooms that could be added, since the series allows up to 120 m (393 ft) of total piping;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe power supply, which calls for 208\/230 V with an MCA of 19 A and a maximum overcurrent protection of 20 A.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the cassette is in, a refrigeration technician does the commissioning. For control, a \u003cstrong\u003ewired remote controller\u003c\/strong\u003e near the counter is often enough in a store; the wired touch controller and the wireless remote are also available, and Wi-Fi is optional. If other units are added, the range's central controllers let you manage everything from one spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA cassette is serviced from below: remove the grille, clean the filter, put the grille back. In a salon where dust, hair and aerosol products float around, that filter deserves regular attention. For the rest of the system, AirGreen offers maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certified (ID 3813049), and its outdoor unit appears on the Hydro-Québec list under AHRI number 216372779. The LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 shows a grant of $2,088 for it. The program's conditions, including the type of building that qualifies, should be checked before counting on that amount for a commercial space. On warranty, count on 12 years on the compressor, 12 years on parts and 6 years on labour, the 12-12-6 formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis configuration suits the merchant who wants one discreet unit today and an outdoor unit able to serve up to five tomorrow: boutique, hair or beauty salon, small service counter. A space that already knows it will have three or four zones is better off starting with a multi-unit configuration from day one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYour store on Promenade Masson: free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn Promenade Masson, elsewhere in Rosemont or in any other Montreal neighbourhood, we come to look at the ceiling, the lane and the electrical panel before proposing anything.

Four families make up the range (wall-mounted, compact cassette, slim ducted, multi-position air handler), and none of them connects to anything but a J-7S outdoor unit. In this condo, two of them share the work:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003eASUA***KSA1 wall-mounted unit\u003c\/strong\u003e in the living room, offered from 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, with auto swing louvers, 6 fan speeds and a level as quiet as 22 dB(A) in quiet mode;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eupstairs, the \u003cstrong\u003eARUL***KSA1 slim ducted unit\u003c\/strong\u003e: just 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) tall, available from 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h, with 0.36 in. WC of static pressure to push air through short ducts, 6 fan speeds and a built-in leak detection sensor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo wall units would also do the job. The ducted unit has one advantage upstairs, though: a single hidden unit spreads the air between the bedrooms through ceiling grilles, instead of one unit above each bed. The trade-off is clear: the bedrooms then share the same setpoint. If each one needs its own temperature, it takes one unit per bedroom, and that is no longer the same configuration. The bulkhead height, the duct layout and the number of grilles are set at the visit, as is the capacity of each unit, whose total must respect the outdoor unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn paper, this system delivers a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 22.2\u003c\/strong\u003e, an HSPF2 of 11.3 and an EER2 of 15.7, which are the maximums the brochure gives for the series. At −15 °C, the table shows a heating capacity of 26,200 BTU and a COP of 2.44, both measured at that specific test point. It is \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certified under ID 3813049.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA balcony exposed to wind off the canal or the river puts the outdoor unit to the test. The J-7S heats down to −26 °C with no low-temperature lockout, according to the brochure cover, and a 2-ton unit like the AOUK024SSAN7 keeps up to 89% of its capacity at −18 °C. Its heated base pan is built in, and its electronics are refrigerant-cooled. In July, when the balcony bakes in the sun, cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe balcony is exactly where this outdoor unit makes the difference:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eit stands 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, low enough to stay below the railing and below a window;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe current generation weighs 15% less than the previous one and takes 16% less floor space;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eits minimum clearances have been reduced, for example to 100 mm (3-15\/16 in.) on several sides, which helps on a narrow balcony;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eits sound level is 54 dB(A), a figure to keep in mind when the neighbour has a balcony too.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a condominium, work on a balcony or a façade usually goes through the syndicate. Reread your declaration of co-ownership before the visit: we will adapt the location and the refrigerant line route to what it allows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn safety, \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e is a low global warming potential refrigerant, and the series holds 12% less of it than the previous generation, for a maximum charge of 6 kg (13.2 lb) per system. The upstairs ducted unit detects leaks on its own with its built-in sensor; for the living-room wall unit, a sensor kit is available as an option. If you want an alarm, it comes through the optional gas sensor kit, audible and visual; if you want to be able to shut off the refrigerant, that is the shut-off valve kit with backup power, also optional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt installation, we run the refrigerant line, the cable and the drain from the balcony to the wall unit, then up to the upstairs bulkhead. The main piping is 3\/8 and 5\/8 in., and the series allows up to 120 m (393 ft) of total piping. The bulkhead gets an \u003cstrong\u003eaccess panel\u003c\/strong\u003e for maintenance and for the ducted unit's filter. On the electrical side, count on 208\/230 V, an MCA of 19 A and a maximum overcurrent protection of 20 A. Before handing over the controls, a refrigeration technician starts up the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach zone can have its own control: a wired remote controller or a wired touch controller in the upstairs hallway, a wireless remote for the living-room wall unit. Wi-Fi can be added as an option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance stays simple: the wall unit's filter slides out from the front, the ducted unit's comes out through the access panel. On the balcony, keep the outdoor unit clear of snow and stored items. We can also take care of full maintenance, balcony unit included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the money side, the outdoor unit is on the Hydro-Québec list under AHRI number 216372779, and the LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 shows a grant of $2,088 for this system. Add the 12-12-6 warranty, which covers the compressor, parts and labour, in years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is for the owner of a two-level condo, a narrow townhouse or a loft with a mezzanine who wants a well-served living area, comfortable bedrooms and a balcony that stays a balcony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondo in Pointe-Saint-Charles: your free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom Pointe-Saint-Charles to the rest of Montreal, we come to measure the balcony, look at the hallway ceiling and go over the condo rules with you before proposing a configuration.

The AOUK024SSAN7 accepts up to 5; this office uses 3, which leaves a little room if a meeting room is added one day, provided the total capacity allows it. The range's indoor units and accessories only connect to J-7S outdoor units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe type of unit is chosen room by room, at the visit.

We promise no combination before we have seen the rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn control, the office logic is simple: each occupant sets their own room. A wired remote controller on the wall of each office, a \u003cstrong\u003ewired touch remote controller\u003c\/strong\u003e at reception if you prefer it, a wireless remote as a backup. For whoever locks up at night, the optional central controllers (system controller, touch panel controller, central remote controller) let you manage all three units from one point. Wi-Fi is among the options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow, the refrigerant. \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e has a low global warming potential, the series holds 12% less of it than the previous generation, and the charge of one system does not exceed 6 kg (13.2 lb).

At the −8 °C test point, the heating capacity shown is 17,400 BTU, and the COP at −15 °C is 2.44. The manufacturer's spec sheet, in French and English, comes with the product for anyone who wants to dig deeper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn deep cold on the North Shore, the J-7S heats down to −26 °C with no low-temperature lockout, according to the brochure cover, and 2-ton units deliver up to 89% of their capacity at −18 °C. When the heat sets in, cooling remains reliable up to 50 °C outside. On certification, it carries the ENERGY STAR cold climate designation, ID 3813049.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation starts with the outdoor unit's location. At 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, it fits below a window; it goes on a ground base or a bracket, with minimum clearances reduced compared to the previous generation. In a heritage area like Vieux-Terrebonne, a visible outdoor unit location may need checking with the City: we bring it up at the visit. Then comes the route of the \u003cstrong\u003erefrigerant piping\u003c\/strong\u003e, the cable and the drains to the three rooms, within the series limit of 120 m (393 ft) of total piping, and the 208\/230 V power supply, with an MCA of 19 A and a maximum overcurrent protection of 20 A. A refrigeration technician then commissions all three units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor maintenance, the wall units' filters come out from the front; a hidden ducted unit needs an access panel for maintenance and the filter. AirGreen can handle maintenance of the system and schedule it around your office hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHydro-Québec lists the outdoor unit under AHRI number 216372779; on its LogisVert list of October 27, 2026, this system is tied to an amount of $2,088. For an office, check the program's conditions, including the type of building that qualifies, before counting on that amount. The system is covered by the manufacturer's 12-12-6 warranty, expressed in years for the compressor, parts and labour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis configuration is for professionals set up in a converted house or apartment: three zones, closed rooms, occupants who do not want to negotiate over the thermostat, and an owner who wants clear answers on safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOffices in Vieux-Terrebonne: your free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Vieux-Terrebonne as elsewhere on the North Shore, we visit the premises, look at each room and propose a configuration with the safety options that apply.

The range offers four types of indoor units, wall-mounted, compact cassette, slim ducted and multi-position air handler, all reserved for J-7S outdoor units. In a bungalow with no ducts and no suspended ceiling, the wall unit is the near-automatic choice:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eit is as quiet as \u003cstrong\u003e22 dB(A) in quiet mode\u003c\/strong\u003e, low enough to sleep next to;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eits 6 fan speeds and auto swing louvers spread the air through the whole room;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe ASUA***KSA1 family runs from 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, which lets each unit match the size of its bedroom;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ea leak detection sensor kit is available as an option.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA child's room and a master bedroom do not have the same needs. The capacity of each wall unit is therefore chosen at the visit, bedroom by bedroom, and the total of the four must respect what the 2-ton outdoor unit can serve. We set no combination before we have seen the house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a house that is heated a good part of the year, the most telling figure is the \u003cstrong\u003eHSPF2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11.3 for this system, the maximum announced for the J-7S series. The SEER2 is 22.2 and the EER2 15.7, also at the top of the series, whose COP2 can reach 4.64. The table shows a COP of 2.44 at −15 °C, as well as two heating capacities at separate test points, −8 °C and −15 °C, to be read as they are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep cold is the 2-ton unit's strong suit. According to the brochure, 2-ton J-7S units keep \u003cstrong\u003eup to 89% of their capacity at −18 °C\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the series heats down to −26 °C with no low-temperature lockout. The built-in heated base pan helps keep ice from building up under the unit. ENERGY STAR has certified it as cold climate, under ID 3813049. And for heat waves, cooling is rated reliable up to 50 °C outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLet us be frank about the limit: four wall units heat four rooms. The bathroom, the hallway and the basement stay on their current heating. The existing baseboards can stay in place as backup, too; at the visit, we assess with you how much of the heating the system will take on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bungalow installation comes down to the route.

The circuit holds \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, a low global warming potential refrigerant; the series needs 12% less of it than the previous generation, and the total charge caps at 6 kg (13.2 lb). For rooms where people sleep, the gas sensor kit with audible and visual alarm is worth a discussion, as is the refrigerant shut-off valve kit with backup power; both are optional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach bedroom has its own control: a wireless remote on the nightstand, or a wired remote controller on the wall for those who prefer a button that never gets lost. Wi-Fi is optional, and a central remote controller can group the four units in the kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWall unit maintenance is within anyone's reach: the filter slides out from the front and gets cleaned. For a complete check of the system, outdoor unit included, AirGreen can take care of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe outdoor unit is on the Hydro-Québec list under AHRI number 216372779. The LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 shows a grant of $2,088 for this system, subject to the program's conditions. As for the warranty, it is 12-12-6, in years, for the compressor, parts and labour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis configuration is made for the family bungalow without ducts, or for the couple who want bedrooms cool in summer and warm in winter without hearing the machine.

On this model, the ceiling is five. Units and accessories are specific to the J-7S: they work with no other outdoor unit. In a townhouse, the floor-by-floor split often looks like this:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eupstairs, ASUA***KSA1 wall units in the bedrooms, offered from 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, as quiet as 22 dB(A) in quiet mode, with 6 fan speeds and auto swing louvers;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eon the ground floor, a wall unit for the living room and kitchen, or a cassette if a suspended ceiling is already there;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ein the finished basement, an AUUA***KSA1 compact cassette in the \u003cstrong\u003estandard suspended ceiling\u003c\/strong\u003e, offered from 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h, whose built-in condensate pump lifts the water, a real advantage below ground level;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eif a room lends itself better to a bulkhead, the ARUL***KSA1 slim ducted unit, 198 mm high, remains an option.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizing is the heart of this configuration. The brochure's compatibility table provides indoor units of 4,000, 7,000, 9,000, 12,000, 14,000 and 18,000 BTU\/h for wall units, cassettes and slim ducted units, depending on the family. With five units connected to a 24,000 BTU outdoor unit, the small capacities come into their own. We measure each room, take orientation and floor into account, then choose each unit; no combination is promised in advance. If the calculation shows the house needs more, the same series offers the 3-ton AOUK036SSAN7, which accepts up to 9 indoor units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis system's values are in the table: \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 22.2\u003c\/strong\u003e, HSPF2 of 11.3 and EER2 of 15.7, the last one being the most telling on heat-wave days. All three match the maximums announced for the series. At −15 °C, the listed COP is 2.44. The product comes with the manufacturer's spec sheet, written in French and English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA three-level house does not heat like a bungalow: heat rises, the basement stays cool. Having one unit per room makes it possible to set each floor separately. On the winter side, the AOUK024SSAN7 benefits from what the brochure announces for 2-ton units: up to 89% of their capacity at −18 °C, and heating with no low-temperature lockout down to −26 °C. And when summer hits hard, cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outside, again according to the brochure. The system holds \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certification (ID 3813049).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA three-storey installation calls for a well-thought-out route. The main refrigerant piping is 3\/8 and 5\/8 in., and the series allows up to 120 m (393 ft) of total piping; we put forward no other length before seeing the walls, the closets and the possible passages between floors. The outdoor unit, 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, goes on a base in the yard; its reduced minimum clearances help in a narrow yard, and, with a 54 dB(A) sound level, it is placed with the neighbours' windows in mind. At the panel, plan for 208\/230 V, an MCA of 19 A and a maximum overcurrent protection of 20 A. Commissioning the five units is a job for a refrigeration technician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith five units on the same \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e circuit, the refrigerant question comes up often. This refrigerant has a low global warming potential, the series uses 12% less of it than the previous generation, and the maximum charge of one system is 6 kg (13.2 lb). The wall units and the cassette accept an optional leak detection sensor kit; the slim ducted unit has its sensor built in. Optionally, a gas sensor tied to an audible and visual alarm can be added, along with a refrigerant shut-off valve equipped with backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive rooms, five possible controls: wireless remotes in the bedrooms, a wired remote controller or wired touch controller in the living room and the basement. A touch panel controller near the entrance can also group the whole house, and Wi-Fi is optional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive units also mean five filters. The wall units' filters come out from the front, the cassette's through the ceiling grille. AirGreen can handle maintenance of the whole system, outdoor unit included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor Hydro-Québec, the outdoor unit carries AHRI number 216372779; the LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 pairs this system with a grant of $2,088, subject to the program's conditions. The warranty is 12-12-6, meaning compressor, parts and labour in years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis configuration suits the townhouse or two-storey home that wants five well-separated zones with a single unit outside, and an owner who accepts tight sizing rather than eyeballing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTownhouse in Vieux-Saint-Eustache: free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Vieux-Saint-Eustache and everywhere on the North Shore, we go up and down all three floors with you, room by room, before pricing anything.

If an office corner or the area near the garage door needs its own setting, a second unit has to be planned. The duct layout, the number of grilles and the return air location are decided at the visit, after checking any existing ducts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis system's values, listed in the table, are a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 21.7\u003c\/strong\u003e, an HSPF2 of 10.8 and an EER2 of 13.6. For context, the brochure gives these series-wide J-7S maximums: SEER2 up to 22.2, HSPF2 up to 11.3, EER2 up to 15.7 and COP2 up to 4.64. On heating, the table gives 26,200 BTU at the −8 °C test point and 36,400 BTU at the −15 °C test point, two measurements taken under different conditions, with a COP of 2.14 at −15 °C. The dimensioned drawings are in the manufacturer's spec sheet, in French and English, which comes with the product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor winter on the South Shore, the J-7S heats down to −26 °C with no low-temperature lockout, according to the brochure cover. The system is \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certified (ID 3813050), and the outdoor unit has a built-in heated base pan. In summer, when the workshop's machines add their own heat, cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors. A garage door left open for a long time, on the other hand, is something no system fully makes up for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the installation side, here is what we plan:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe location of the air handler, with an \u003cstrong\u003eaccess panel\u003c\/strong\u003e for maintenance and the filter, and the short duct network to the grilles;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe outdoor unit, 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, 15% lighter with a 16% smaller footprint than the previous generation, set on a base or a bracket; the brochure gives it 0.12 in.

On the refrigerant side, the air handler and the outdoor unit run on \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, a low global warming potential refrigerant of which the series uses 12% less than the previous generation; the system's maximum charge is 6 kg (13.2 lb). Two options can be added to the air handler's built-in sensor: the gas sensor kit, with its audible and visual alarm, and the refrigerant shut-off valve kit, with its backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor control, a wired remote controller or a wired touch controller in the workshop office is enough; the wireless remote is also available, and Wi-Fi is optional. The day other units are added, a system controller, a touch panel controller or a central remote controller lets you run everything from one place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a workshop, the air handler's filter gets dirty faster than elsewhere. Plan to check it often, through the access panel. AirGreen can take over complete maintenance, air handler and outdoor unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAHRI number 216372781 is the one under which Hydro-Québec lists the outdoor unit.

The manufacturer, Fujitsu General Limited, has been called \u003cstrong\u003eGENERAL Inc.\u003c\/strong\u003e since January 1, 2026; the manufacturer's brochure and the warranty have stayed the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case in point is the duplex whose owner lives on the ground floor and rents out the upper floor, or lends it to a relative.

In August 2025, Paloma Rheem Holdings, which has owned Rheem since 1988, acquired Fujitsu General; on January 1, 2026, the company became GENERAL Inc. The head office and R\u0026amp;D are still based in Kawasaki, Japan; the factories run as before, and each AIRSTAGE product keeps its model number and warranty program. Founded in 1936, the company also marks the 90th anniversary of its founding in 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fujitsu brand will be withdrawn gradually. In the meantime, the same machine sells under two names, and AirGreen, an AIRSTAGE Elite Plus installer, shows both product pages to avoid any confusion. On the distribution side, Rheem Canada took over Canadian sales in February 2026, and our supply still comes through Groupe Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"tp-compare\"

The capacity of each unit is set at the visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this specific system, the table gives a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 21.7\u003c\/strong\u003e, an HSPF2 of 10.8 and an EER2 of 13.6; the brochure puts the J-7S series maximums at 22.2 for SEER2 and 11.3 for HSPF2. The table also shows 36,400 BTU of heating capacity at the −15 °C test point, with a COP of 2.14 at that temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn winter, the J-7S heats down to −26 °C with no low-temperature lockout, according to the brochure cover, and the system is \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certified under ID 3813050. In summer, the upper flat, under the roof, is often the hottest in the house; cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a Petite-Patrie backyard, space is counted in feet. The outdoor unit stands 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, the current generation is 15% lighter with a 16% smaller footprint than the previous one, and its minimum clearances have been reduced, for example to 100 mm (3-15\/16 in.) on several sides. The table lists a sound level of 57 dB(A), a figure we take into account to keep it away from windows, yours and the neighbours'. It sits on a base, with its built-in heated base pan and its refrigerant-cooled electronics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore signing, here are the owner's questions to settle:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eelectricity\u003c\/strong\u003e: the outdoor unit is connected to a single panel, at 208\/230 V, with an MCA of 29 A and a maximum overcurrent protection of 30 A; the compressor's consumption, which serves both floors, therefore goes through a single meter, and the arrangement with the tenant has to account for it;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003econtrols\u003c\/strong\u003e: each dwelling has its own, wired remote controller, wired touch controller or wireless remote, and Wi-Fi is optional;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eaccess: maintenance of the upper unit goes through the rented dwelling, and is planned in line with the lease;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ewhat comes next: an enlarged dwelling or an added bedroom can get its own unit, depending on the remaining capacity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe route of the \u003cstrong\u003erefrigerant piping\u003c\/strong\u003e, the cable and the drains to both floors is set at the visit, often up the back wall or inside a closet. The main piping diameters are 3\/8 and 5\/8 in.; in total, the series accepts up to 120 m (393 ft) of piping. Start-up and commissioning checks are done by a refrigeration technician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo dwellings on the same \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e circuit deserve a few words on safety. This low global warming potential refrigerant is used in a quantity 12% lower than in the previous generation, and a system never holds more than 6 kg (13.2 lb). Ducted units have a built-in leak sensor, wall units accept an optional sensor kit, and two other kits are offered: a gas sensor with audible and visual alarm, and a refrigerant shut-off valve with backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFilters are cleaned dwelling by dwelling, and AirGreen can handle maintenance of the whole system, outdoor unit included, coordinating access to the upper floor with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the grant, the outdoor unit's AHRI number 216372781 is the one Hydro-Québec lists, and its LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 gives $3,144 for this system, subject to the program's conditions. Finally, the 12-12-6 warranty applies: compressor, parts and labour, counted in years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis configuration is designed for the owner-occupant of a duplex who wants to heat and cool both floors without cluttering the façade, with one machine to manage instead of two and two well-separated zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDuplex in Petite-Patrie: free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Petite-Patrie as everywhere in Montreal, we visit both dwellings and the yard, then propose units, a route and a location for the outdoor unit.

The manufacturer has not changed, only its name: Fujitsu General Limited became GENERAL Inc. on January 1, 2026. The manufacturer's brochure is identical, and so is the warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe built this page for clinics and professional offices: physiotherapy, dentistry, chiropractic, small healthcare practices. In those spaces, a single temperature satisfies nobody. A patient lying on a treatment table, often partly undressed, gets cold long before the therapist working on their feet. Reception takes the draft from the door every time a patient walks in. The dental operatory, with its lights and equipment, warms up while the waiting room stays cool. Three indoor units, three zones, three settings that stay out of each other's way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a commercial space with a suspended ceiling, the cleanest answer is often the \u003cstrong\u003ecompact cassette\u003c\/strong\u003e. It fits the grid of a standard suspended ceiling, and its \u003cstrong\u003ebuilt-in condensate drain pump\u003c\/strong\u003e lifts the water to the drain, which gives some latitude when there is no natural slope above the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe story is short: Paloma Rheem Holdings, owner of Rheem since 1988, buys Fujitsu General Limited in August 2025, and the company adopts the name GENERAL Inc. on January 1, 2026. The head office and the research and development centre stayed in Kawasaki, Japan, the factories are the same, and the AIRSTAGE model numbers have not changed by a single character. The Fujitsu brand is gradually leaving the nameplates; in the meantime, one machine circulates under two names.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat is why we publish both pages with the same values, so you can see it for yourself before you sign. Rheem Canada has handled Canadian sales since February 2026 and Groupe Master remains our distributor: for AirGreen, an AIRSTAGE Elite Plus installer, supply and the warranty program stay the ones we

On this 3-ton unit, the J-7S accepts up to nine indoor units; your office uses three. Those indoor units, like the range's accessories, only work with a J-7S outdoor unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach room gets the unit that suits it, chosen at the visit from four families:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompact cassette\u003c\/strong\u003e AUUA***KSA1 for the treatment rooms: it lines up with the grid of a standard suspended ceiling, clears its condensate with its built-in pump and offers 6 fan speeds, from 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWall-mounted\u003c\/strong\u003e ASUA***KSA1 for the closed office with a drywall ceiling: 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, 6 fan speeds, louvers that sweep the air on their own and a quiet mode that drops to 22 dB(A) during a consultation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSlim ducted\u003c\/strong\u003e ARUL***KSA1 for the waiting room: hidden above the ceiling in its 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) of height, it pushes air to the grilles at 0.36 in. WC, over 6 fan speeds, from 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-position air handler\u003c\/strong\u003e ARUX***KSA1, in S, M or L chassis, 12,000 to 60,000 BTU\/h, with 0.8 in. WC and 3 fan speeds: it serves large volumes fed by a duct network, rarely a three-room office.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe total capacity of the three units must respect the outdoor unit. We set it at the visit, room by room, based on windows, equipment and patient traffic. No combination is promised before the visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe three rooms share a system whose \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 reaches 21.7\u003c\/strong\u003e, with an HSPF2 of 10.8 and an EER2 of 13.6: those are this unit's values. The higher figures in the brochure (SEER2 up to 22.2, HSPF2 up to 11.3, EER2 up to 15.7, COP2 up to 4.64) are the maximums of the J-7S series. In heating, the spec sheet lists 26,200 BTU at −8 °C, 36,400 BTU at −15 °C and a COP of 2.14 at −15 °C; these are separate test points, reproduced as published.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA clinic that opens early in January can't wait for the building to warm up. The manufacturer rates heating down to −26 °C, with no lockout at low temperature, and the outdoor unit has a built-in base pan heater against ice buildup. This system also holds \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certification. In summer, cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors, a welcome margin for a flat roof or an asphalt yard in full sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a healthcare setting, refrigerant deserves a clear answer. The J-7S circuit holds \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, a low global warming potential refrigerant: 12% less refrigerant than in the previous generation, and never more than 6 kg (13.2 lb) for the whole system, cassettes included. Ducted units have a built-in leak detection sensor; for cassettes and wall units, a sensor kit is optional. For a closed treatment room, two options deserve your attention: the gas sensor kit, which triggers an audible and visual alarm, and the refrigerant shut-off valve kit, fitted with backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor controls, each room can have its own wired controller, wired touch controller or wireless remote, all optional. Reception can keep a central remote controller, a system controller or a touch panel controller to switch everything off at the end of the day without walking through every room. An optional Wi-Fi connection can help whoever opens the clinic in the morning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is done by our refrigeration technicians. The outdoor unit, 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, fits below a window or on a balcony under the railing height; it produces 57 dB(A) outdoors. The refrigerant piping (3\/8 and 5\/8 in. for the main piping) and the cable reach the cassettes above the suspended ceiling; condensate is routed to a building drain. The routing and the position of each unit are set at the visit. Your electrician will plan a 208\/230 V circuit set up for an MCA of 29 A and an MOP of 30 A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance is scheduled outside appointment hours: filter cleaning, a check of the condensate pump and drain, inspection of the outdoor unit. The warranty covers the compressor and parts for 12 years and labour for 6 years, whether the nameplate says GENERAL or Fujitsu. For the grant file, keep three references: AHRI certificate 216372781 on the Hydro-Québec list, ENERGY STAR ID 3813050 and the $3,144 that the LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 assigns to this outdoor unit. Hydro-Québec applies its own eligibility rules: for a commercial space, check them before putting that amount in your budget.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is meant for the three-room physiotherapy clinic, the dental office with two chairs and a reception desk, the optometry or psychology office in a commercial building. If you have more rooms, the same outdoor unit comes in pages with four to nine indoor units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA clinic in downtown Longueuil: let's talk about your rooms\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe visit the space, measure each room, look at the ceiling and where the outdoor unit could go, then hand you a free quote that names the indoor units selected.

Only the manufacturer's name has moved. Since January 1, 2026, Fujitsu General Limited has been called GENERAL Inc.; the technical brochure and the warranty that come with the unit have stayed the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis page starts from a very common building in Laval: the two-storey house built in the 1960s, heated with electric baseboards or hot water, without a single air duct. In summer, the upstairs bedrooms turn into an oven while the basement keeps its cool. Adding a duct network to a finished house means opening walls and giving up closets. A mini-VRF takes a different route: it does not move air through ducts, it moves refrigerant through small-diameter piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat is where piping length matters. The J-7S allows up to \u003cstrong\u003e120 m (393 ft) of total piping\u003c\/strong\u003e, 50% more than the previous generation. That margin lets us take the right path rather than the shortest one: through a closet that runs from one floor to the next, through the attic to come down to the bedrooms, through an interior wall rather than across the facade. The four indoor units, so four zones, are split between the two floors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the new name, there is a transaction. In August 2025, Paloma Rheem Holdings, which has owned Rheem since 1988, bought Fujitsu General Limited; the company took the name GENERAL Inc. at the start of 2026. The Kawasaki head office and research centre stayed in place, as did the factories, the AIRSTAGE products, the model numbers and the warranty program. GENERAL is a brand the company has used since 1946; it is gradually replacing the Fujitsu name on the units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring this transition, the same heat pump carries two names depending on the box it arrives in. AirGreen, an AIRSTAGE Elite Plus installer, keeps both pages online so the comparison can be made on the evidence, with the same figures on both sides. Sales in Canada have gone through Rheem Canada since February 2026, and we still buy from Groupe Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable class=\"tp-compare\"

The AOUK036SSAN7 accepts up to nine; this configuration has four, enough to handle the two floors separately along with the rooms that heat up the most. The indoor units are chosen room by room, and only those from the J-7S range connect to this outdoor unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a house without ducts, the \u003cstrong\u003ewall-mounted\u003c\/strong\u003e ASUA***KSA1 does most of the work. It covers 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, runs at 6 fan speeds, spreads air with its auto swing louvers and drops to 22 dB(A) in quiet mode, which matters in a bedroom. Two other families can slip into the plan:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003eslim ducted\u003c\/strong\u003e ARUL***KSA1, only 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high, 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h, when a bulkhead already exists or can be built, for example above a hallway;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003ecompact cassette\u003c\/strong\u003e AUUA***KSA1, 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h, with a built-in condensate drain pump, if the basement has a suspended ceiling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unit's efficiency: \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 21.7\u003c\/strong\u003e in cooling, HSPF2 of 10.8 in heating, EER2 of 13.6. The maximums advertised for the J-7S series, namely SEER2 up to 22.2, HSPF2 up to 11.3, EER2 up to 15.7 and COP2 up to 4.64, apply to the range as a whole, not to your system. In cold weather, the spec sheet shows 36,400 BTU and a COP of 2.14 at −15 °C, as well as 26,200 BTU at −8 °C, two test points we quote without comparing them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a house that has gone through decades of winters on baseboards, deep cold is the first worry. The manufacturer's answer: heating down to −26 °C, with no lockout at low temperature, and \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certification for this system. The base pan heater built into the outdoor unit helps clear ice. We still advise keeping the existing baseboards: they stay in place as backup and ask for nothing. In summer, the J-7S cools reliably up to 50 °C outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe piping route deserves a closer look, because it is what separates a discreet installation from a facade covered in line-set covers. At the visit, we look for existing paths: the ground-floor closet sitting under the one upstairs, the attic reached through the hallway hatch. Each wall unit's refrigerant line and cable follow that route; in the attic, the piping is insulated and protected, then the attic insulation is put back in place. The drain, for its part, must stay protected from frost: we run it outside or to the plumbing, depending on the room. The main piping to the outdoor unit is 3\/8 and 5\/8 in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe outdoor unit finds its place in the yard, on a pad or bracket that keeps it above the snow. At 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, it fits under a kitchen window, and it is 15% lighter with a 16% smaller footprint than the previous generation. Its outdoor sound level is 57 dB(A); we avoid placing it under the neighbour's bedroom window. On the electrical side, it calls for 208\/230 V, MCA of 29 A and MOP of 30 A: in a house of that era, the original panel deserves a check by your electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn safety, the J-7S runs on \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, a low global warming potential refrigerant; the total system charge does not exceed 6 kg (13.2 lb), with 12% less refrigerant than the older generation. On leak detection, a ducted unit has its sensor built in, while a wall unit or cassette gets one as an optional kit. For a child's or an aging parent's bedroom, you can add a gas sensor kit with audible and visual alarm as well as a refrigerant shut-off valve kit with backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach room is controlled its own way: a wireless remote in the bedrooms, a wired controller or wired touch controller in the living room, all optional, and optional Wi-Fi to adjust the house from your phone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance stays simple: the wall units' filters are cleaned regularly, the outdoor unit must be kept clear of snow and leaves, and a visit from a refrigeration technician checks the connections, the drains and the operation of each zone. The 12-12-6 in the table reads like this: the manufacturer warrants the compressor and parts for 12 years, labour for 6 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat leaves the grant. The outdoor unit carries AHRI certificate 216372781, listed with Hydro-Québec, and ENERGY STAR ID 3813050. The LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 assigns it $3,144, granted under the rules of Hydro-Québec's program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is for owners of two-storey houses without ducts who want to cool the upstairs bedrooms and heat the ground floor efficiently without taking on ductwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA 1960s house in Laval-Ouest: the visit starts in the attic\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe go up into the attic and open the closets first, because that is where the piping route gets decided; only then do we choose the four indoor units with you.

The manufacturer that built it under the name Fujitsu General Limited has been called GENERAL Inc. since January 1, 2026. You get the same manufacturer's brochure and the same warranty, whatever the label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe case on this page: a triplex owner who wants to heat and cool all three apartments with a single outdoor unit, instead of lining up three heat pumps in the yard or on the back balconies. The idea holds up, as long as you treat it for what it is: shared equipment for the building, just like the electrical service or the roof. Five indoor units, five zones, three households: there are choices to make about the split, about who controls what and about how the refrigeration technician gets into tenants' homes for maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo names for one machine, and the explanation fits in a few dates. The Paloma Rheem Holdings group, Rheem's owner since 1988, took over Fujitsu General Limited in August 2025; on January 1, 2026, the name GENERAL Inc. replaced the old one. Nothing else moved: head office and R\u0026amp;D centre in Kawasaki, Japan, same factories, same AIRSTAGE products, same model numbers, same warranty program. The Fujitsu name is fading out gradually and, until then, both labels coexist on identical units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor an owner comparing quotes, this period sows confusion; we clear it up by showing both pages.

The 3-ton AOUK036SSAN7 accepts up to nine. With five, each apartment gets at least one unit and the larger ones get two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe split is decided at the visit, based on the size and orientation of each apartment. Purely as an illustration, a building where two apartments are clearly larger than the third could get two units in each of them and one in the smallest. The total capacity must always respect the outdoor unit, and we set no combination before we have measured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a plex, the \u003cstrong\u003ewall-mounted\u003c\/strong\u003e unit is often the simplest choice: 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, auto swing louvers, 6 fan speeds and 22 dB(A) in quiet mode for bedrooms. The other families have their place depending on the apartment:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003eslim ducted\u003c\/strong\u003e unit, 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high, 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h and 0.36 in.

The indoor units are in the tenants' homes: their maintenance, like any repair, goes through the notice the law requires of the owner. The outdoor unit, for its part, must be reachable without going through an apartment: back yard, flat roof with safe access or shared balcony. At 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, it fits under a window or on a balcony below the railing height, and it weighs 15% less than the previous generation, which does not remove the need to check the balcony structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls per apartment\u003c\/strong\u003e come next. Each indoor unit can have its own local control, wired, wired touch or wireless, all optional, so each household sets its own comfort. Optional Wi-Fi lets a tenant adjust their apartment from a phone. An owner who wants an overall view can add a central remote controller, a system controller or a touch panel controller, at home or in a common area. Better to set the ground rules with your tenants before commissioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectricity and energy\u003c\/strong\u003e are the question people forget. A single outdoor unit connects to a single panel, at 208\/230 V, with an MCA of 29 A and an MOP of 30 A. If it is wired to the owner's meter, the owner pays most of the heating and cooling energy for all three apartments, which changes how the leases are written. Settle it with your electrician and whoever advises you on your leases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the owner who pays for the energy, the system's figures matter: \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 21.7\u003c\/strong\u003e, HSPF2 of 10.8, EER2 of 13.6. Don't let the brochure confuse you: its highest values, namely SEER2 up to 22.2, HSPF2 up to 11.3, EER2 up to 15.7 and COP2 up to 4.64, are J-7S series maximums, not this unit's results. The spec sheet also gives 26,200 BTU at −8 °C and, at −15 °C, 36,400 BTU with a COP of 2.14; these test points are not meant to be compared with each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor all three apartments at once, the manufacturer states the system heats down to −26 °C with no lockout at low temperature; it is \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certified under ID 3813050. In summer, on a flat roof in full sun, the margin matters: according to the brochure, cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe circuit shared by the three apartments holds \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, a low global warming potential refrigerant; the brochure sets the system's maximum charge at 6 kg (13.2 lb) and states 12% less refrigerant than in the previous generation. Since the piping crosses several apartments, let's be frank about it: ducted units have a built-in leak detection sensor, wall units and cassettes can take an optional sensor kit, and you can add a gas sensor kit with audible and visual alarm as well as a refrigerant shut-off valve kit with backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor piping, the J-7S allows up to 120 m (393 ft) in total, enough to rise from one apartment to the next through a service shaft, stacked closets or the back wall. The main piping diameters, 3\/8 and 5\/8 in., stay modest in a shared shaft. The routing, the location of the units and the firestopping of the passages between apartments are set at the visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance of a shared system gets planned: filters cleaned in each apartment, drains checked, outdoor unit kept clear of snow, a visit from a refrigeration technician. The compressor and parts are warranted for 12 years, labour for 6 years, a point worth noting in the building's file.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHydro-Québec's LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 assigns $3,144 to this outdoor unit, listed under AHRI certificate 216372781. Whether a three-unit building qualifies is up to Hydro-Québec's rules: we tell you the listed amount, Hydro-Québec confirms the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system suits the owner-occupant who lives in one of the apartments or the owner renovating all three at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA triplex in Saint-Pierre, Lachine: let's plan all three apartments together\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the visit, we go through each apartment, look at the electrical service and where the outdoor unit could go, then hand you a free quote with the proposed split of the five indoor units.

The Fujitsu brand is gradually giving way; until the change is complete, you will find the same unit under both names.

This 3-ton unit accepts up to nine indoor units, all chosen from the J-7S range, the only one compatible with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDeep cold, first.\u003c\/strong\u003e According to the manufacturer, the J-7S keeps heating down to −26 °C, without stopping at low temperature, and this system has earned ENERGY STAR cold climate certification. At −15 °C, the spec sheet gives 36,400 BTU and a COP of 2.14; at −8 °C, it lists 26,200 BTU. These are two different test points, to be read separately. The built-in base pan heater keeps ice from building up under the outdoor unit on January mornings. In a childcare setting, we still recommend keeping a backup heat source, for example the baseboards already in place: a building that cares for toddlers shouldn't depend on a single appliance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRefrigerant safety, next.\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a fair question from parents, and the answer fits in a few points:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe J-7S runs on \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, a low global warming potential refrigerant, with 12% less refrigerant than the previous generation;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe maximum charge for the whole system is 6 kg (13.2 lb);\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe ducted units, slim ducted and multi-position air handler, have a \u003cstrong\u003ebuilt-in leak detection sensor\u003c\/strong\u003e;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ewall units and cassettes accept an optional leak sensor kit;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eas an option, a gas sensor kit triggers an \u003cstrong\u003eaudible and visual alarm\u003c\/strong\u003e, and a refrigerant shut-off valve kit, with its own backup power, can be added to it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese kits are not included by default. We recommend them in the rooms where children sleep, and the final decision is yours, based on the requirements that govern your childcare service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnits out of reach, finally.\u003c\/strong\u003e The \u003cstrong\u003ewall-mounted\u003c\/strong\u003e unit goes high on the wall, above the furniture and the craft displays; its auto swing louvers direct the air without a child ever touching them, and in quiet mode it drops to 22 dB(A), which won't wake a nap room. It covers 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h. In a multipurpose room with a suspended ceiling, the compact cassette, 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h with a built-in condensate drain pump, is out of reach by definition. The slim ducted unit, 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high, disappears into a bulkhead and only shows grilles. The multi-position air handler, 12,000 to 60,000 BTU\/h, is more for buildings that already have ducts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe room-by-room choice is made at the visit. The total capacity of the six units must respect the outdoor unit; we promise you no combination before we have seen the infant room, the kitchen and which way the windows face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor controls, a wireless remote stays with the educator, and a wired or wired touch controller is mounted at adult height, away from small hands. The director can centralize everything with a system controller, a touch panel controller or a central remote controller placed in the office. These controls, like Wi-Fi, are chosen as options to fit how your team is organized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn a CPE's electricity bill, efficiency counts: \u003cstrong\u003e21.7 SEER2\u003c\/strong\u003e, with 10.8 HSPF2 and 13.6 EER2 for this system. The higher figures you will read in the brochure, up to 22.2 SEER2; 11.3 HSPF2; 15.7 EER2; 4.64 COP2, are the best of the J-7S series, not this unit's. In summer, cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors, a comfort during heat waves when the children stay inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe outdoor unit must never sit in the playground. We place it in a fenced area, on a roof open to staff only or against a wall away from where children move around, on a pad or bracket that keeps it above the snow. At 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, compact, with reduced minimum clearances, it adapts to a tight corner; its outdoor sound level is 57 dB(A). The refrigerant piping, whose total length can reach 120 m (393 ft), and the cable reach the six units along a route set at the visit. The hookup is 208\/230 V; your electrician plans for an MCA of 29 A and an MOP of 30 A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance is planned outside opening hours: filter cleaning, a check of the drains and the cassettes' condensate pump, inspection of the outdoor unit. The compressor and parts carry a 12-year warranty; labour, a 6-year one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYour board or your accountant will want the references: AHRI certificate 216372781, on the Hydro-Québec list, ENERGY STAR ID 3813050, and $3,144 assigned to this outdoor unit in the LogisVert list of October 27, 2026. A home daycare operating in a residence and a CPE in a commercial space are not in the same position with respect to the program: Hydro-Québec decides, under its own rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is for CPEs, private daycares and home childcare services that want to heat and cool each room separately, with units out of reach and a refrigerant whose safety is documented.

The solution sits in the ceiling: \u003cstrong\u003eslim ducted units\u003c\/strong\u003e hidden in bulkheads or the suspended ceiling, blowing through grilles. Upstairs, where bedrooms have free walls and simpler needs, \u003cstrong\u003ewall-mounted units\u003c\/strong\u003e do the job. Seven indoor units, so seven zones, each with its own setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe name changed because the owner changed. Paloma Rheem Holdings, which has held Rheem since 1988, bought Fujitsu General Limited in August 2025, and the company has been called GENERAL Inc. since the start of 2026. Kawasaki remains the head office and research centre, the factories have not changed, and neither have the AIRSTAGE products, their model numbers or the warranty program. The Fujitsu name will disappear from the units as the transition goes on; in the meantime, two labels designate a single machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRather than leave any doubt hanging, AirGreen publishes both pages and lets you compare. We are an AIRSTAGE Elite Plus installer, we still buy from Groupe Master, and Rheem Canada has been selling the range in Canada since February 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable class=\"tp-compare\"

The AOUK036SSAN7 can feed up to nine. All of them must belong to the J-7S range: its indoor units and accessories only pair with its own outdoor units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the basement, the ARUL***KSA1 slim ducted unit has the right qualities:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eonly 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high, which lets it fit in a bulkhead without crushing the ceiling;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h, enough to handle a small guest room as well as a home theatre;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ea static pressure of 0.36 in. WC to push air through short ducts to one or more grilles;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 fan speeds and a built-in refrigerant leak detection sensor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach ducted unit needs an access hatch for maintenance and the filter, and a drain for condensate; depending on the height of the floor drain, a pump may be added. We plan these details before the ceilings are closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUpstairs, the ASUA***KSA1 wall unit covers 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, with 6 fan speeds and auto swing louvers. In quiet mode, it drops to 22 dB(A), the kind of discretion you appreciate in a primary bedroom. The ground floor, for its part, is decided at the visit: a wall unit, a ducted unit in a bulkhead, or a compact cassette if there is a suspended ceiling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA point of honesty: 36,000 BTU is 3 tons to share among seven rooms. For a very large house, we calculate the needs before recommending anything, and if the result exceeds what the 3-ton unit can deliver, we will talk to you about the 48,000 BTU VRF version, which accepts up to twelve indoor units. The total capacity is set at the visit; no combination is promised on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat the outdoor unit delivers: a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 21.7\u003c\/strong\u003e, an HSPF2 of 10.8 and an EER2 of 13.6, listed for this system. The brochure also quotes the series' best results, a SEER2 up to 22.2 and an HSPF2 up to 11.3, with an EER2 up to 15.7 and a COP2 up to 4.64: those are peaks of the range, not values from this page. The heating figures, for their part, line up two separate test points: 26,200 BTU at −8 °C, then 36,400 BTU and a COP of 2.14 at −15 °C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNorth Shore winters call for heating that holds. The manufacturer sets the J-7S heating limit at −26 °C, with no lockout at low temperature, and this system is among those certified \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e. The built-in base pan heater keeps ice from forming under the unit. In summer, cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors: the exercise room and the bedrooms under the roof benefit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe refrigerant is \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, with low global warming potential, a maximum charge of 6 kg (13.2 lb) for the system and 12% less refrigerant than the previous generation. The basement ducted units have their leak sensor built in; the wall units can take an optional sensor kit. If the basement guest room concerns you, add a gas sensor kit, which warns with an audible and visual alarm; the refrigerant shut-off valve kit, with backup power, completes the setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn a large Rosemère lot, the land leaves a choice of location for the outdoor unit. We keep it away from the deck and the bedroom windows, on a pad or bracket above the snow; its outdoor sound level is 57 dB(A). With seven units spread over three levels, the piping works hard: the J-7S allows up to 120 m (393 ft) of total piping, and the main piping is 3\/8 and 5\/8 in. The route runs through the basement ceilings and the interior walls, and is set at the visit. At the panel, plan for 208\/230 V, an MCA of 29 A and an MOP of 30 A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor controls, each room can have a wired controller, a wired touch controller or a wireless remote; a touch panel controller in the kitchen can group all seven zones. These controls are bought as options, and so is Wi-Fi, for adjusting the house remotely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance includes cleaning the filters of the wall and ducted units through their hatches, checking the drains and inspecting the outdoor unit.

An open area, two meeting rooms, a few closed offices, a kitchenette, one or two phone booths. Eight rooms, eight zones, and above all schedules that look nothing alike: the meeting room fills up for an hour and then empties, the corner office stays closed on Fridays, the open area empties in the evening.

It isn't one. The buyer, Paloma Rheem Holdings, has owned Rheem since 1988; it acquired Fujitsu General Limited in August 2025, and the new name, GENERAL Inc., arrived on January 1, 2026. Nothing changes in what a manager keeps an eye on: head office and R\u0026amp;D centre in Kawasaki, Japan, factories, AIRSTAGE products, model numbers, warranty program. The Fujitsu name is fading out gradually; meanwhile, the same machine is sold under both names.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAirGreen, an AIRSTAGE Elite Plus installer, keeps both pages side by side so your comparison of quotes rests on identical data.

Schedule programming and the distribution of controls are set with you at commissioning, based on how the floor is actually used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the floor's operating budget, keep in mind a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 21.7\u003c\/strong\u003e, an HSPF2 of 10.8 and an EER2 of 13.6. The brochure presents higher series maximums, as follows: SEER2 up to 22.2; HSPF2 up to 11.3; EER2 up to 15.7; COP2 up to 4.64. They describe the best of the J-7S range, not this configuration. The spec sheet also shows 26,200 BTU at −8 °C, and 36,400 BTU with a COP of 2.14 at −15 °C, test points we do not compare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn a February Monday morning, when the floor has cooled down all weekend, the J-7S heats down to −26 °C according to the manufacturer, with no lockout at low temperature; the system is \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certified. On a downtown roof in July, the heat reflected by the gravel and the neighbouring walls makes itself felt: cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors, and the electronics are refrigerant-cooled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn an older Quartier latin building, the outdoor unit can sit on the roof or on a rear balcony. At 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) high, 15% lighter with a 16% smaller footprint than the previous generation, it stays under the height of a railing. Its outdoor sound level is 57 dB(A), a figure to weigh when apartments look onto the same lane. The refrigerant piping can total 120 m (393 ft), enough to climb from a lower floor to the roof and serve all eight rooms; the main piping is 3\/8 and 5\/8 in. As a tenant, you will need the landlord's approval for the roof and the penetrations: we provide the technical information required. On the electrical side, the building's master electrician will plan for 208\/230 V, an MCA of 29 A and an MOP of 30 A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRunning through your floor's ceilings is \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, a low global warming potential refrigerant, with a maximum charge of 6 kg (13.2 lb) for the whole system and 12% less refrigerant than the older generation. Cassettes and wall units can take an optional leak sensor kit, and you can add a gas sensor kit with audible and visual alarm and a shut-off valve kit with backup power, useful in small closed rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance is done outside office hours: filters, drains and condensate pumps, outdoor unit. Compressor and parts are warranted for 12 years and labour for 6, exactly as on the Fujitsu twin. The outdoor unit is on the Hydro-Québec list under AHRI certificate 216372781, with ENERGY STAR ID 3813050, and the LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 assigns it $3,144; for offices, eligibility for the program should be checked with Hydro-Québec before counting on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is for coworking operators, small firms and commercial building owners who want room-by-room comfort and centralized management. Your architect or property manager will find the dimensioned drawings in the manufacturer's spec sheet, in French and English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOffices in the Quartier latin: let's walk your floor\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe visit the floor outside your peak hours, look at the ceilings, the roof and the possible piping route, then hand you a free quote.

The head office and the research and development centre in Kawasaki, Japan, the factories, the AIRSTAGE range, the model numbers and the warranty program are the same as before. The company, founded in 1936, marks the 90th anniversary of its founding this year, and it is gradually replacing the Fujitsu brand with GENERAL; until the transition ends, the same machine is sold under both names.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe publish both pages so the comparison is made on identical values.

The indoor units connect only to J-7S outdoor units, and the AOUK036SSAN7 accepts nine at most. This page therefore uses all of the connection capacity: there will be no tenth room on this system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart of the file is the \u003cstrong\u003ecapacity budget\u003c\/strong\u003e. Adding up nine units without watching the total quickly goes beyond what the outdoor unit accepts. The compatibility table in the brochure provides indoor units of 4,000, 7,000, 9,000, 12,000, 14,000 and 18,000 BTU\/h, then 24,000 to 48,000 BTU\/h for the largest; the smallest capacities exist precisely for modest-sized bedrooms and offices. A well-insulated senior's room doesn't need the same unit as the common room facing due west. We do this calculation at the visit, room by room, and the quote specifies the capacity selected for each. No combination is set or promised on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe indoor unit families suit both kinds of building:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWall-mounted\u003c\/strong\u003e ASUA***KSA1 for the bedrooms: 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, it fades into the background at 22 dB(A) in quiet mode and spreads air with its auto swing louvers, over 6 fan speeds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompact cassette\u003c\/strong\u003e AUUA***KSA1 for the common room or an office: its size follows the standard suspended ceiling format, its condensate drain pump is built in, and its capacity runs from 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSlim ducted\u003c\/strong\u003e ARUL***KSA1, 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h: 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high, built-in leak detection sensor.

At the staff station, a touch panel controller, a system controller or a central remote controller gives a view of all nine zones. Each of these controls is optional, and so is Wi-Fi. In an office building, the same logic applies: each tenant sets their own space, the owner keeps the overall view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe efficiency listed for this system: \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 21.7\u003c\/strong\u003e, HSPF2 of 10.8, EER2 of 13.6. Don't confuse it with the J-7S series maximums the brochure quotes, a SEER2 that can reach 22.2, an HSPF2 of 11.3, an EER2 of 15.7 and a COP2 of 4.64. In heating, the spec sheet gives, at −15 °C, 36,400 BTU and a COP of 2.14, and, at −8 °C, 26,200 BTU: different test points, presented as published.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSeniors should not be cold in January. The manufacturer rates heating down to −26 °C with no lockout at low temperature, and the system is \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certified; the built-in base pan heater protects the outdoor unit from ice. We still recommend keeping a backup heat source in a building that houses vulnerable people. Frail residents cope poorly with heat too: the manufacturer states reliable cooling up to 50 °C outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith nine bedrooms or offices that are often small and closed, the refrigerant deserves particular attention. The refrigerant in all nine units is \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, with low global warming potential; the whole system's charge does not exceed 6 kg (13.2 lb), and the current generation needs 12% less of it than the previous one. On detection, ducted units leave the factory with their leak sensor, wall units and cassettes get one through an optional kit, and two more kits can complete the setup: gas sensor with audible and visual alarm, refrigerant shut-off valve with backup power. We review each room at the design stage, according to the requirements that apply to your building.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe piping calls for the same discipline as the capacities. The 120 m (393 ft) of total length allowed is shared among the nine units: an efficient route, through a central hallway or a service space, beats nine detours. The nine units then connect off the main piping, 3\/8 and 5\/8 in. In Auteuil, a residential neighbourhood, we place the outdoor unit away from bedroom windows; its outdoor sound level is 57 dB(A), and its 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) height lets it fit under a window or on a balcony below the railing. For the outdoor unit, allow 208\/230 V, an MCA of 29 A and an MOP of 30 A on the building's electrical panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance of nine units is planned with the residents or tenants: filters, drains, the cassettes' condensate pumps, the outdoor unit. The complete system is covered for 12 years on the compressor and parts, 6 years on labour. The outdoor unit appears on the Hydro-Québec list under AHRI certificate 216372781, ENERGY STAR ID 3813050, and the LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 assigns it $3,144; for a residence or offices, Hydro-Québec determines eligibility under its own rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf your building has more than nine rooms to serve, or if the calculation exceeds what 3 tons can deliver, the 48,000 BTU VRF version accepts up to twelve indoor units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA residence or offices in Auteuil: let's calculate your nine rooms\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe visit each room, work out the capacity budget and hand you a free quote that names the indoor unit planned for each one.

It is the same system, bolt for bolt, as its twin Fujitsu AIRSTAGE page with 1 indoor unit. The manufacturer has not changed, it was simply renamed GENERAL Inc. on January 1, 2026; the manufacturer's brochure is identical, and the warranty (12 years for the compressor, as many for parts, 6 years for labour) does not change from one label to the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe building in mind is a specific one: the big open hall. A community hall in a church basement, a dance studio above a storefront, the multipurpose room of a recreation centre. These rooms go from empty to full all at once, and a group that is dancing gives off heat. You need equipment that heats hard in January and cools a packed room in June.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor this kind of space, we propose a \u003cstrong\u003emulti-position air handler\u003c\/strong\u003e connected to a duct network, rather than a row of units hung on the walls. Air comes out of several grilles spread across the hall, the equipment stays hidden in a mechanical room, and the walls stay free for mirrors or exits. If we pick a J-7S outdoor unit over an ordinary central heat pump, it is because it leaves the door open for what comes next.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Kawasaki, Japan, nothing has moved: same head office, same research and development centre, same factories. What changed is the name on the door. The new owner, Paloma Rheem Holdings, has held Rheem since 1988; it acquired Fujitsu General in August 2025, and the company took the name GENERAL Inc. on January 1, 2026. AIRSTAGE references were not renumbered, and the warranty program follows the machine. On the Canadian side, Rheem Canada has been selling the range since February 2026; we keep buying through Groupe Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fujitsu logo is gradually leaving the packaging, so the same outdoor unit is sold today under one name or the other. As an \u003cstrong\u003eAIRSTAGE Elite Plus\u003c\/strong\u003e installer, we keep both pages online: you compare, you choose the logo you prefer, and the machine stays

Those units are chosen room by room: multi-position air handler ARUX***KSA1, slim ducted ARUL***KSA1, compact cassette AUUA***KSA1 or wall-mounted ASUA***KSA1. None of them, and none of their accessories, connects to anything but a J-7S outdoor unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a big hall, the multi-position air handler is the natural pick for concrete reasons:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethree chassis (S, M and L) and a range of 12,000 to 60,000 BTU\/h, so the equipment fits the hall rather than the other way around;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ea static pressure of 0.8 in. WC, the highest of the four families, and three fan speeds to push air all the way to the grilles at the far end;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ea built-in \u003cstrong\u003eleak detection sensor\u003c\/strong\u003e from the factory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe exact capacity of the air handler is set at the visit, once the hall is measured and its use understood: we promise no combination on paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLet's be frank about expandability. The AOUK048SSAN7 accepts up to 12 indoor units, but the sum of their capacities has to stay within what the outdoor unit can deliver. If the hall takes the full capacity today, connecting a changing room tomorrow will mean revisiting the split. If an expansion is already in your plans, tell us at the visit: we will choose the air handler accordingly. With 120 m (393 ft) of total piping allowed, 50% more than the previous generation, reaching a distant room in the same building remains possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn efficiency, keep three ratings in mind: \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2\u003c\/strong\u003e at 20.2, \u003cstrong\u003eHSPF2\u003c\/strong\u003e at 10.2 and EER2 at 11.4. In heating, capacity is 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, the point where the COP stands at 2.1. The J-7S series reaches at best an EER2 of 15.7, an HSPF2 of 11.3, a COP2 of 4.64 and a SEER2 of 22.2: those are series maximums, not the values of this configuration. The outdoor unit is ENERGY STAR cold climate certified (ID 3813053) and its AHRI number 216372783 appears on the Hydro-Québec list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA community hall has to stay usable in the middle of February. The manufacturer puts the heating limit at −26 °C, with no low-temperature lockout. Under the outdoor unit, a \u003cstrong\u003ebase pan heater\u003c\/strong\u003e is factory-built; the electronics, for their part, are cooled by the refrigerant. Come summer, cooling stays reliable, according to the brochure, up to 50 °C outdoors, against 46 °C for the previous generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe outdoor unit measures 37 × 12.63 × 39.31 in. (W × D × H), or 998 mm high; its weight is down 15% and its footprint down 16% compared with the previous generation. It sits on a pad or a stand along the building, away from the entrances, and its outdoor sound level is 60.0 dB(A). Electrical: a 208\/230 V circuit, sized from an MCA of 36 A and an MOP of 40 A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the refrigerant side, the circuit contains \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, with its low global warming potential, in a quantity 12% lower than in the previous generation, and never more than 6 kg (13.2 lb). The air handler already includes its leak sensor; for a hall open to the public, two options are worth discussing: the audible and visual alarm provided by the gas sensor kit, and the refrigerant shut-off valve kit, with backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe air handler goes in the mechanical room, in the basement or in a service space, and connects to a new or existing duct network, supply and return, checked at the visit. The refrigerant line, cable and drain run to the outdoor unit, an access panel is provided for the filter, and a refrigeration technician handles the commissioning. The duct layout and the number of grilles are decided on site, with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor control, a \u003cstrong\u003ewired controller\u003c\/strong\u003e on the hall wall suits an organization well: whoever is in charge sets the temperature without hunting for a remote. A wired touch controller and a wireless remote are available, Wi-Fi is optional, and if more units are added, the central controls (system controller, touch panel controller, central remote controller) bring the settings together in one place. Our HVAC team handles system maintenance on request.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Hydro-Québec's LogisVert list dated October 27, 2026, the AOUK048SSAN7 outdoor unit is listed for a grant of $4,296. For a community or commercial building, eligibility depends on the program rules: we check it with you before that amount goes into your budget.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1-indoor-unit system is meant for:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecommunity and parish halls that want a single machine;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edance, yoga or martial arts studios that care about clear walls;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eorganizations that plan to add zones later, room by room, on the same outdoor unit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYour big hall in Varennes or elsewhere on the South Shore: free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhether the hall is in Varennes or elsewhere on the South Shore, it all starts with a visit: measurements, existing ducts, outdoor unit location, expansion plans.

Up front, the \u003cstrong\u003esales floor\u003c\/strong\u003e: a display window in full sun, a door that opens with every customer, display lighting that gives off heat. Out back, the \u003cstrong\u003eback room\u003c\/strong\u003e: storage, the receiving counter, sometimes a small workshop, and a delivery door that lets winter in. A single outdoor unit and two indoor units, each on its own duct network, answer that reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a store, we generally recommend two \u003cstrong\u003emulti-position air handlers\u003c\/strong\u003e, one per space, hidden above the ceiling or in a mechanical room. Customers only see grilles, shelving takes the walls, and each section keeps its own temperature. The final choice of the two units is still made on site, after the visit: depending on ceiling height and available space, a slim ducted unit may suit one of the two rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe dates fit on two lines. August 2025: Paloma Rheem Holdings, to which Rheem has belonged since 1988, buys Fujitsu General. January 1, 2026: Fujitsu General Limited adopts the name GENERAL Inc. Nothing moves: head office and R\u0026amp;D in Kawasaki, Japan, the same production lines, and an AIRSTAGE range that keeps its model numbers as well as its warranty program. Since February 2026, Rheem Canada has handled Canadian sales, while Groupe Master remains AirGreen's distributor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fujitsu name is fading from the boxes little by little; until the transition is over, your system may therefore arrive under either label.

The range has four families: the multi-position air handler ARUX***KSA1 and the slim ducted ARUL***KSA1, which work on ducts, then the compact cassette AUUA***KSA1 and the wall-mounted ASUA***KSA1. These indoor units, like their accessories, work with no outdoor unit other than the J-7S. In a commercial space, the two ducted families are the most useful:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003emulti-position air handler\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12,000 to 60,000 BTU\/h, S, M or L chassis, static pressure of 0.8 in.

That calculation is done at the visit, never before. The sum of the two indoor units simply has to stay within what the outdoor unit accepts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the outdoor unit, two locations come up:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003eflat roof\u003c\/strong\u003e, common in neighbourhood strip malls: the unit, 15% lighter and with a 16% smaller footprint than the previous generation, sits on a suitable stand once the roof has been examined;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003eground\u003c\/strong\u003e, behind the building, on a pad, away from the delivery area and from the snow pushed by plows.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEither way, we are talking about a 37 × 12.63 × 39.31 in. (W × D × H) unit, 998 mm high, with an outdoor sound level of 60.0 dB(A). It offers a static pressure of 0.12 in. WC, a 20% improvement according to the brochure, as well as reduced minimum clearances. Refrigerant piping can reach 120 m (393 ft) in total, 50% more than the previous generation, which leaves leeway between the roof and the two air handlers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor this specific system: HSPF2 of 10.2, SEER2 of 20.2 and EER2 of 11.4, with a heating capacity of 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, for a COP of 2.1 at that same −15 °C. Keep them separate from the maximums published for the whole J-7S series: COP2 up to 4.64, EER2 up to 15.7, HSPF2 up to 11.3 and SEER2 up to 22.2. AHRI number 216372783 is Hydro-Québec's reference for this outdoor unit; on the ENERGY STAR side, it is certified cold climate under ID 3813053.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWinter on the South Shore does not close a shop. The manufacturer states heating down to −26 °C with no low-temperature lockout, with a built-in \u003cstrong\u003ebase pan heater\u003c\/strong\u003e and electronics cooled by the refrigerant. And when the display window bakes in the July sun, the brochure states reliable cooling up to 50 °C outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe J-7S runs on \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, whose global warming potential is low; the brochure states 12% less refrigerant than the older generation and caps the system charge at 6 kg (13.2 lb). Multi-position air handlers and slim ducted units each include their own leak sensor. Two optional kits can round it out: one adds a gas sensor that drives an audible and visual alarm, the other a refrigerant shut-off valve with its own backup power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt installation, each air handler is connected to its own duct network, supply and return, new or existing after inspection. Refrigerant line, wiring and drain then run up to the outdoor unit, each air handler gets its access panel for the filter, and commissioning is entrusted to a refrigeration technician. Electrically, the outdoor unit needs 208\/230 V, an MCA of 36 A and an MOP of 40 A; as for the duct layout and the number of grilles, they are decided at the visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor controls, one \u003cstrong\u003ewired controller\u003c\/strong\u003e per section is enough for most stores: the sales-floor team sets theirs, the back-room team does the same. A wired touch controller or a wireless remote can replace it, Wi-Fi is available as an option, and the manager who wants to see everything from one station can add a central controller. Our HVAC service then takes care of system maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the grant: Hydro-Québec's LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 assigns an amount of $4,296 to the AOUK048SSAN7. A commercial space is not necessarily eligible for the program; we check your situation before putting that amount in a quote. This system is mainly for shops with a stockroom, showrooms with a workshop, single-level retail stores and spaces that plan to add zones, since the outdoor unit accepts up to 12 indoor units within the limit of its capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBrossard and South Shore businesses: visit and free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhether your store faces Taschereau Boulevard, sits in Quartier DIX30 or in a neighbourhood strip mall in Brossard, we come to look at the roof, the ceiling and the back room before proposing anything.

Three machines of different ages, three maintenance visits, several compressors in the yard, and floors that never quite heat the same way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe proposal is simple: a single 4-ton \u003cstrong\u003eoutdoor unit\u003c\/strong\u003e, then, on each floor, an indoor unit run by its own control.

Paloma Rheem Holdings, parent of Rheem since 1988, bought Fujitsu General in August 2025; as of January 1, 2026, Fujitsu General Limited took the name GENERAL Inc. Kawasaki, Japan, is still home to the head office and R\u0026amp;D; the factories run as before, the AIRSTAGE model numbers have not moved and neither has the warranty program.

Four families of indoor units exist, and none works outside a J-7S outdoor unit: the wall-mounted ASUA***KSA1, the slim ducted ARUL***KSA1, the multi-position air handler ARUX***KSA1 and the compact cassette AUUA***KSA1. For a house on three levels, here is how we usually approach each floor, subject to what the visit reveals:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eground floor\u003c\/strong\u003e: a multi-position air handler, from 12,000 to 60,000 BTU\/h and a static pressure of 0.8 in.

The 48,000 BTU of the outdoor unit are shared among the three indoor units, and the sum of their capacities has to stay within what the AOUK048SSAN7 accepts. Whether 4 tons is enough is not worked out from a square-foot rule: it depends on what we measure in your home, windows, insulation, orientation. The 4-ton unit is the largest of the three J-7S outdoor units; if your house needs more, we will tell you clearly at the visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe table gives this system's ratings: an EER2 of 11.4, a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2\u003c\/strong\u003e of 20.2 and an \u003cstrong\u003eHSPF2\u003c\/strong\u003e of 10.2. When the temperature drops, the system produces 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, with a COP of 2.1 at the second of those two points. The brochure cites higher peaks for the series as a whole, namely an HSPF2 of 11.3, a SEER2 of 22.2, a COP2 of 4.64 and an EER2 of 15.7; they describe the series, not this configuration. On the certification side, the outdoor unit holds ENERGY STAR cold climate certification (ID 3813053) and appears on Hydro-Québec's list under AHRI number 216372783.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEven in January, the machine keeps heating: the manufacturer states operation down to −26 °C, with no lockout when the cold sets in. It is equipped with a \u003cstrong\u003ebase pan heater\u003c\/strong\u003e, and its electronics are cooled by means of the refrigerant. For summer, the brochure sets the limit of reliable cooling at 50 °C outdoors; the previous generation stopped at 46 °C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the yard, the change shows. A single unit of 37 × 12.63 × 39.31 in. (W × D × H) replaces the old compressors, with an outdoor sound level of 60.0 dB(A), reduced minimum clearances and a footprint 16% smaller than the previous generation's. It is installed on a pad or a stand, along a side wall or behind the hedge, at the spot where, based on the visit, the refrigerant line will be most direct. Piping can reach 120 m (393 ft) in total to serve all three floors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn safety, the \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e circulating in the J-7S has a low global warming potential; 12% less of it is needed than with the previous generation, and 6 kg (13.2 lb) is the system's charge ceiling. The multi-position air handler and the slim ducted unit have a built-in leak detection sensor; for the wall-mounted unit and the cassette, the leak sensor is added as an optional kit. To go further, there is an optional gas sensor kit, with audible and visual alarm, as well as a refrigerant shut-off valve kit fitted with backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt installation, each air handler is connected to the ducts, supply and return, after inspection of the ones already in place. From each unit run a refrigerant line, a cable and a drain to the outdoor unit; we plan the access panels for the filters, and commissioning falls to a refrigeration technician. At the panel, plan for 208\/230 V for the outdoor unit, with an MCA of 36 A and an MOP of 40 A. What happens to the old equipment is spelled out in the quote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003ewired controller\u003c\/strong\u003e per floor, or a wired touch controller, keeps each level at its own temperature; the wireless remote suits wall-mounted units, and Wi-Fi is optional. Those who want to see the whole house at a glance can add a touch panel controller. On maintenance, you go from three machines to a single outdoor unit, with three indoor filters to clean, and our HVAC team takes care of the system's periodic maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHydro-Québec includes the AOUK048SSAN7 on its LogisVert list of October 27, 2026, with a grant of $4,296.

Since the four units share the same outdoor unit, we also look with you, at the visit, at how the system will behave in the shoulder seasons, when the kitchen will want cool air while the dining room is still asking for heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the sum of the four indoor units has to stay within what the outdoor unit accepts, we offer no ready-made combination. The calculation takes into account seating, equipment and windows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSummer is a restaurant's real test. The manufacturer states reliable cooling up to an outdoor temperature of 50 °C, versus 46 °C for the previous generation. That is a welcome margin when the outdoor unit sits on a gravel roof or in a lane between two brick walls, where the air is often hotter than the forecast says. We also avoid placing it in the discharge of the hood exhaust fan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system's figures: \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2\u003c\/strong\u003e of 20.2, EER2 of 11.4, HSPF2 of 10.2. In heating, 35,800 BTU at −8 °C, 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, COP of 2.1 at −15 °C, and heating stated down to −26 °C with no low-temperature lockout, backed by a built-in \u003cstrong\u003ebase pan heater\u003c\/strong\u003e. For the J-7S series, the brochure gives higher maximums: HSPF2 up to 11.3, EER2 up to 15.7, SEER2 up to 22.2 and COP2 up to 4.64, which are not the values of this configuration. ENERGY STAR cold climate certification, ID 3813053; AHRI number 216372783 on the Hydro-Québec list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSize-wise, the outdoor unit is 37 × 12.63 × 39.31 in. (W × D × H) for 998 mm in height, with weight reduced by 15% compared with the previous generation and reduced minimum clearances; its electronics are cooled by the refrigerant. Its outdoor sound level of 60.0 dB(A) matters when a terrace or neighbours are close by. Refrigerant piping can total 120 m (393 ft), enough to reach the back office from the roof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn safety, the refrigerant is \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e: low global warming potential, 12% less charge than the previous generation and no more than 6 kg (13.2 lb) in the whole system. The slim ducted unit has its built-in leak detection sensor, and the cassettes accept an optional leak sensor kit. For a room open to the public, we recommend also looking at two options: the gas sensor with audible and visual alarm, and the refrigerant shut-off valve with backup power, each offered as a kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn site, each unit is tied to the outdoor unit by a refrigerant line, a cable and a drain, then the slim ducted unit is connected to its supply and return ducts. Access panels, the route through the ceiling and commissioning by a refrigeration technician are planned with you, taking your opening hours into account. As for power, the outdoor unit connects at 208\/230 V; its spec sheet shows an MCA of 36 A and an MOP of 40 A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach zone can have its own \u003cstrong\u003ewired controller\u003c\/strong\u003e or wired touch controller; you can also choose the wireless remote, and add Wi-Fi as an option. The manager who wants to shut off the dining room, bar and kitchen in one move at closing time can add a central remote controller or a touch panel controller. The cassette filters are reached from the dining room, and our HVAC team handles system maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, the grant: $4,296 for the AOUK048SSAN7, according to Hydro-Québec's LogisVert list of October 27, 2026. A restaurant's eligibility depends on the program rules; we check it before counting on it. This system suits neighbourhood restaurants, bistros with a bar, cafés with a closed kitchen and caterers with a small dining room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRestaurants in Mercier-Ouest and Montreal: free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYour restaurant faces Hochelaga Street, Sherbrooke Street East or another main street in Mercier-Ouest: we come to see the dining room, the ceiling, the kitchen and where the outdoor unit can go, then we hand you a free quote, zone by zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAirGreen installs this system throughout Montreal, in Laval, in Longueuil, on the North Shore and on the South Shore.

Only the manufacturer's label differs: it has carried the GENERAL Inc. name since January 1, 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis configuration suits a single-storey professional space well. Take a veterinary clinic: a waiting room where dogs and cats cross paths, exam rooms, a surgery room, a hospitalization room where animals sometimes spend the night. Or a professional office, with its reception, its closed offices and its meeting room. In both cases, five rooms with different needs, and nobody wanting to fight over a shared thermostat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a place like this, one question comes up quickly: refrigerant safety.

Kawasaki, Japan, keeps the head office and the R\u0026amp;D centre, manufacturing stays in the same factories, and AIRSTAGE products have lost neither their model numbers nor their warranty program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUntil the Fujitsu logo has completely left the packaging, the same machine is sold under both names.

In a hospitalization room where animals stay alone after closing, we always bring them up; in an ordinary office, the choice is yours once the options are explained. Let us also be clear that the J-7S heats and cools, but it does not replace ventilation: odour exhaust and fresh-air supply in a clinic belong to other equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe system is rated 20.2 for \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2\u003c\/strong\u003e and 10.2 for HSPF2, plus 11.4 for EER2; in heating, it delivers 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, a temperature at which its COP is 2.1. In the J-7S series, the best published ratings reach 22.2 for SEER2 and 11.3 for HSPF2, then 15.7 for EER2 and 4.64 for COP2; those maximums do not describe this particular configuration. On Hydro-Québec's list, the outdoor unit carries AHRI number 216372783; it also carries ENERGY STAR cold climate certification, ID 3813053.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the dead of winter, the hospitalization room has to stay warm. According to the manufacturer, heating holds down to −26 °C with no low-temperature lockout, and the outdoor unit is fitted with a factory \u003cstrong\u003ebase pan heater\u003c\/strong\u003e as well as electronics that the refrigerant keeps cool. As for cooling, the brochure calls it reliable up to 50 °C outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs for the 37 × 12.63 × 39.31 in. (W × D × H) unit, 998 mm high, it sits on a pad or a stand behind the building or on the roof, depending on what the visit allows. It weighs 15% less than the previous generation and takes up 16% less space; its outdoor sound level is 60.0 dB(A). Total piping can reach 120 m (393 ft), enough to reach the five rooms of a spread-out floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt installation, each indoor unit gets its refrigerant line, cable and drain; the ducted units connect to their supply and return ducts, and access panels are provided for the filters. A refrigeration technician finishes with the commissioning. For power, count on 208\/230 V at the outdoor unit, whose MCA is 36 A and MOP 40 A; the piping layout, for its part, is set at the visit, based on the partitions and the ceiling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn each room, a \u003cstrong\u003ewired controller\u003c\/strong\u003e, its touch version or a wireless remote; Wi-Fi is available on top, as an option. At reception, a system controller or a touch panel controller lets you see and adjust all five units from one station.

The indoor units, reserved for J-7S outdoor units, are chosen one by one from the slim ducted ARUL***KSA1, the wall-mounted ASUA***KSA1, the compact cassette AUUA***KSA1 and the multi-position air handler ARUX***KSA1. In an apartment, two options dominate:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003ewall-mounted\u003c\/strong\u003e unit, simple to install in the open living and kitchen area: auto swing louvers, 6 fan speeds, 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, and a quiet mode that goes down to 22 dB(A);\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003eslim ducted\u003c\/strong\u003e unit, hidden in a hallway bulkhead: 198 mm high, it covers 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h and distributes air through a few grilles to the bedrooms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLet us be clear: a wall-mounted unit in the living room does not reach closed bedrooms as well as a slim ducted unit connected to grilles in each room. The choice is made apartment by apartment, at the visit, based on the floor plan and the space available in the ceiling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFirst frank point, capacity. Six apartments share 48,000 BTU: the sum of the six indoor units therefore has to stay within what the AOUK048SSAN7 accepts. A top-floor apartment, under the roof, does not need the same thing as a ground-floor one; we size each unit at the visit, with no ready-made split. Nothing requires removing the electric baseboards: they can serve as backup, and we talk it over with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSecond point, consumption. The outdoor unit, which does most of the work, connects to a single panel, and therefore a single meter: heating and cooling for all six apartments become a building expense, to be considered with your leases. Its connection is at 208\/230 V (MCA of 36 A, MOP of 40 A). And since the system is shared, we also explain at the visit how it behaves in the shoulder seasons, when one apartment would like heat and its neighbour cool air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThird point, maintenance. Each indoor unit has its filter, inside the apartment; maintenance therefore means entering it, which is planned with your tenants. Outside, there is only one unit to maintain, and our HVAC team takes care of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePhysically, the outdoor unit is compact: 37 × 12.63 × 39.31 in. (W × D × H), 998 mm high, with weight cut by 15% and floor footprint cut by 16% compared with the previous generation. The brochure presents it as low enough to install below a window or on a balcony, below railing height, with reduced minimum clearances. Its outdoor sound level is 60.0 dB(A), a figure we keep in mind to place the unit away from tenants' bedrooms. The piping, up to 120 m (393 ft) in total, climbs to every floor of a sixplex along a route set at the visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a rental building, ratings matter: an \u003cstrong\u003eHSPF2\u003c\/strong\u003e of 10.2, an EER2 of 11.4 and a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2\u003c\/strong\u003e of 20.2, with 35,800 BTU of heating at −8 °C, then 41,500 BTU and a COP of 2.1 at −15 °C. The J-7S series maximums go higher (EER2 up to 15.7, COP2 up to 4.64, SEER2 up to 22.2, HSPF2 up to 11.3), but they apply to the series, not to this sixplex. ENERGY STAR cold climate certified (ID 3813053), the outdoor unit appears on Hydro-Québec's list with AHRI number 216372783.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the winter side, the brochure speaks of heating down to −26 °C with no low-temperature lockout, and the outdoor unit comes with its \u003cstrong\u003ebase pan heater\u003c\/strong\u003e and electronics that the refrigerant cools. And in summer, cooling holds up to 50 °C outdoors, whereas the older generation's limit was 46 °C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSix apartments on one circuit means a single charge of \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, a low global warming potential refrigerant, capped at 6 kg (13.2 lb) and reduced by 12% compared with the previous generation. Each slim ducted unit has its factory leak detection sensor; on the wall-mounted side, that sensor comes as an optional kit. The owner can also opt for a gas sensor kit with audible and visual alarm, or even for the refrigerant shut-off valve kit with backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor controls, each apartment gets its own, wired, wired touch or wireless as you prefer: the wall-mounted \u003cstrong\u003ewired controller\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps remotes from going missing from one tenant to the next, and Wi-Fi is optional. In a common room, the owner can also install a central remote controller or a touch panel controller. During the work, the six units are connected one by one to the outdoor unit (refrigerant line, cable, drain), the ducted units to their ducts, then a refrigeration technician handles the commissioning. As for LogisVert, the AOUK048SSAN7 appears on Hydro-Québec's list of October 27, 2026 with $4,296; for a six-unit building, we check with you what the program rules provide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is meant for sixplex owners who want a single outdoor unit for the whole building while letting each occupant set their own zone, and for buildings whose yard lacks room for six units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSixplexes in Duvernay and Laval: free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Duvernay as elsewhere in Laval, we visit the building apartment by apartment, then the yard, the roof and the balconies, before handing you a free quote that specifies the unit chosen for each of the six apartments and the piping route.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe also carry out these conversions in Montreal and Longueuil, as well as on the North Shore and the South Shore.

The GENERAL AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF 48,000 BTU with 7 indoor units is, identically, the machine you may know under the Fujitsu AIRSTAGE name: same \u003cstrong\u003eAOUK048SSAN7 outdoor unit\u003c\/strong\u003e, same number of indoor units, same manufacturer. That manufacturer has been called GENERAL Inc. since January 1, 2026.

On January 1, 2026, the corporate name Fujitsu General Limited gave way to GENERAL Inc., with no move and no change of factory: head office and R\u0026amp;D still in Kawasaki, Japan, AIRSTAGE model numbers unchanged, warranty program kept as is. On the Canadian side, sales have been Rheem Canada's job since February 2026, while our supply still comes through Groupe Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fujitsu logo is gradually disappearing from the boxes. During the transition, the same AOUK048SSAN7 can therefore carry either brand on delivery, and a tender or a competing quote can name either one.

Each room thus becomes one of its zones, with its own setpoint. The seven indoor units are chosen one by one at the visit, from four families reserved for J-7S outdoor units; the page sets no combination in advance, because a lab and a music room don't have the same needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHere is how we reason through the choice for teaching spaces:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompact cassette\u003c\/strong\u003e: the AUUA***KSA1 fits in place of a standard grid ceiling tile, with a range of 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h, and its built-in condensate pump saves you from hunting for a slope to the drain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSlim ducted\u003c\/strong\u003e: at 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high, the ARUL***KSA1 hides above a corridor, offers 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h, blows through grilles and comes with a built-in leak detection sensor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-position air handler\u003c\/strong\u003e: for the multipurpose room connected to ductwork, the ARUX***KSA1 ranges from 12,000 to 60,000 BTU\/h, with 0.8 in. WC of static pressure and, here too, a built-in leak sensor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWall mounted\u003c\/strong\u003e: the ASUA***KSA1, from 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, is the simple answer for an office or a tutoring room, mounted high, out of reach of curious hands, and as quiet as 22 dB(A) in quiet mode.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn refrigerant safety, we go through the J-7S brochure room by room with the administration. Cassettes and wall units can take a leak sensor supplied as an optional kit. Two accessories can round things out: a \u003cstrong\u003egas sensor kit\u003c\/strong\u003e with audible and visual alarm, which warns the occupants, and a refrigerant shut-off valve kit with backup power, which isolates the circuit. Whether to add these kits depends on each room; we put it in black and white in the quote instead of improvising on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn efficiency, this 4-ton system delivers a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 20.2\u003c\/strong\u003e, an \u003cstrong\u003eHSPF2 of 10.2\u003c\/strong\u003e and an EER2 of 11.4. The J-7S series goes higher on paper: SEER2 and HSPF2 climb to 22.2 and 11.3, EER2 to 15.7 and COP2 to 4.64, but those are the maxima of the range, not of this configuration. Hydro-Québec lists the outdoor unit under AHRI number 216372783, and the system carries the ENERGY STAR cold climate designation (ID 3813053).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWinter in the West Island doesn't faze this machine. The brochure reports heating down to −26 °C, with no low-temperature lockout. The system's spec sheet shows 35,800 BTU of heating at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, with a COP of 2.1 at −15 °C; these are two separate test points, to be read as they are. In summer, cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors according to the manufacturer, versus 46 °C for the previous generation, enough to stay on course through summer classes and day camps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the visit, our refrigeration technician walks through the seven rooms. The technician maps out where the \u003cstrong\u003erefrigerant piping\u003c\/strong\u003e will run (120 m of total length at most, 50% more than the previous generation), then the location of the drains, the electrical panel and the outdoor unit's base. At 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) tall, with reduced minimum clearances, the outdoor unit tucks along a wall without crowding an exit. It runs on 208\/230 V and lists an MCA of 36 A for an MOP of 40 A. That is when the type and capacity of each indoor unit are settled, so that their total respects the 48,000 BTU outdoor unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor control, each room gets its choice of a wireless remote controller, a wired touch remote controller or a plain wired remote controller. In a classroom, the wired controller has one big advantage: it stays on the wall instead of vanishing into a desk. At the front office, a \u003cstrong\u003etouch panel controller\u003c\/strong\u003e, a central remote controller or a system controller, all optional, bring the seven units together in one place. Wi-Fi can be added as an option too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance follows the school calendar, not the other way around: we schedule the cleaning of filters, coils and drains during breaks, when the rooms are empty, and check the installed sensors and kits on the same visit. On the funding side, this system appears on Hydro-Québec's LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 with a \u003cstrong\u003e$4,296 grant\u003c\/strong\u003e; your building's eligibility is confirmed under the program's rules before you count on that amount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is meant for the neighbourhood private school, the vocational training centre or the language school that would rather have one machine to maintain and one warranty to track. It even leaves room to grow: the AOUK048SSAN7 accepts up to 12 indoor units, if total capacity allows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA quote for your facility in Sainte-Geneviève (Montreal)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe travel to Sainte-Geneviève as we do everywhere in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, the North Shore and the South Shore.

The GENERAL AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF 48,000 BTU with 8 indoor units meets that brief with a machine that is already well known, since it is, part for part, the twin Fujitsu AIRSTAGE system, built around the same \u003cstrong\u003eAOUK048SSAN7\u003c\/strong\u003e outdoor unit and the same 8 indoor units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer changed owners and names, not products. Since January 1, 2026, Fujitsu General Limited has answered to the name GENERAL Inc., and both versions share the same manufacturer's brochure as well as the same warranty, which runs 12 years on the compressor and parts and 6 on labour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a boutique hotel or an urban B\u0026amp;B, the appeal of this system comes down to two words, silence and control. The rooms get \u003cstrong\u003ewall-mounted units\u003c\/strong\u003e that go as low as 22 dB(A) in quiet mode, and the front desk keeps a hand on the whole system through the optional central controllers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis new name is the result of an acquisition: in August 2025, Fujitsu General was bought by Paloma Rheem Holdings, which has controlled Rheem since 1988, and the company then adopted the GENERAL Inc. name at the turn of 2026. Kawasaki keeps the head office and research centre, and nothing shifts either when it comes to the factories, the AIRSTAGE range, the model numbers or the warranty program. GENERAL has served as a brand name since 1946; as for the company, founded in 1936, it celebrates the 90th anniversary of its founding in 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the Fujitsu brand is gradually phased out, the same machine is sold under both names. A hotel owner comparing quotes may therefore see two names for an identical unit; we publish both pages so they can see it for themselves. Canadian sales have gone through Rheem Canada since February 2026, and AirGreen, an HVAC contractor and AIRSTAGE Elite Plus installer, still sources from Groupe Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable

In hospitality, that is exactly the right logic. The room of a guest who runs cold, the one that stays empty until the last check-in of the evening and the one that was just vacated all become independent zones, each at its own setpoint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the bedrooms, we favour the \u003cstrong\u003eASUA***KSA1 wall unit\u003c\/strong\u003e. Its range of 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h matches rooms of ordinary size, and the exact capacity of each one is set at the visit. In quiet mode it drops to 22 dB(A), a level that fades into the background at night. Its auto swing louvers spread the air through the room, and its 6 fan speeds give the guest a real choice of setting instead of a simple \"high\" or \"off\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wall unit is not mandatory, though. A suite with a grid ceiling can take a compact cassette (4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h) that has its own built-in condensate pump. If a room's corridor has a dropped ceiling, it can hide a slim ducted unit barely 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high, which blows through a grille and carries a built-in leak sensor. The choice is made room by room; the page imposes no combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the front desk, three central controls are available as options:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003esystem controller\u003c\/strong\u003e, which brings the eight units together under a single device at the counter;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003etouch panel controller\u003c\/strong\u003e, for the evening shift as well as the morning one, when staff prefer to work with a fingertip;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe central remote controller, when the front desk mainly wants to bring a vacated room back to a standby setpoint without going upstairs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe exact functions of each controller are listed in the manufacturer's spec sheet, and we help you choose based on how your team works. In the room, the guest keeps a wireless remote controller, or a wall-mounted wired controller if you would rather it not leave in a suitcase. Wi-Fi remains an option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDowntown, the outdoor unit has neighbours too. Its published sound level is 60 dB(A). More compact than the previous generation, with 15% less weight and a 16% smaller footprint, it measures 37 × 12-5\/8 × 39-5\/16 in. Its 998 mm height lets it sit on a flat roof, in an inner courtyard or on a balcony, lower than the railing, and its reduced minimum clearances help in a narrow lane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system's figures are a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 20.2\u003c\/strong\u003e, an HSPF2 of 10.2 and an EER2 of 11.4. The J-7S series maxima, namely 15.7 EER2, 4.64 COP2, 22.2 SEER2 and 11.3 HSPF2 at best, belong to other configurations. In winter, two test points appear on the spec sheet, 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, with a COP of 2.1 at the −15 °C point; they are read separately. In deep cold, the machine keeps heating down to \u003cstrong\u003e−26 °C with no lockout\u003c\/strong\u003e at low temperature according to the manufacturer, which matters when a guest comes back from a January evening on Sainte-Catherine Street. In July, cooling holds up to 50 °C outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the refrigerant side, it is low-GWP R-32, and the manufacturer has cut the quantity by 12% compared with the previous generation. An optional leak sensor kit can be added to wall units and cassettes, and two other optional kits round out the package as needed, one with a gas sensor and audible and visual alarm, the other with a refrigerant shut-off valve and its backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn certifications, Hydro-Québec's list carries the outdoor unit under AHRI number 216372783, and ENERGY STAR lists the system in its cold climate category under ID 3813053. It is listed under LogisVert, with a \u003cstrong\u003e$4,296 grant\u003c\/strong\u003e according to the list of October 27, 2026; for a lodging business, eligibility is checked against the program's rules before signing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is planned at the visit. Our refrigeration technician lays out the route of the refrigerant piping through corridors and ceilings, up to 120 m in total (50% better than the previous generation), then the drain for each wall unit. The technician also checks the electrical panel, since the outdoor unit demands 208\/230 V, 36 A of MCA and 40 A of MOP. Phasing the work, room by room or floor by floor, is discussed based on your occupancy rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor maintenance, we come between two bookings: cleaning the wall unit filters, checking the drains, inspecting the outdoor unit. This system is aimed at the boutique hotel, the urban B\u0026amp;B or the furnished apartment building: eight rooms to handle separately, one machine outside.

The GENERAL AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF 48,000 BTU with 9 indoor units answers with nine units to spread between the bedrooms and the common areas, all connected to a single outdoor unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is the twin Fujitsu AIRSTAGE, with no technical difference at all: the same \u003cstrong\u003eAOUK048SSAN7\u003c\/strong\u003e outdoor unit, the same number of indoor units, the same manufacturer, which has been called GENERAL Inc. since January 1, 2026.

Nine indoor units mean nine refrigerant lines to run through an occupied house, between the joists, through the closets, under the attic. That route is not improvised: it is drawn at the visit, with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA transaction explains the change: Paloma Rheem Holdings, the holder of Rheem since 1988, completed the acquisition of Fujitsu General in August 2025. A few months later, on January 1, 2026, the corporate name went from Fujitsu General Limited to GENERAL Inc. The Kawasaki head office, the R\u0026amp;D centre, the factories, the AIRSTAGE products and their model numbers all stayed the same, as did the warranty program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fujitsu name is gradually disappearing from the units, so during the transition the same machine circulates under both labels. Showing both pages side by side avoids any confusion for the owner who received a quote under the Fujitsu name. Rheem Canada has handled sales across the country since February 2026, while Groupe Master keeps supplying us, and AirGreen, an HVAC contractor, remains an AIRSTAGE Elite Plus

The nine units are chosen room by room from the four J-7S families, which are only compatible with outdoor units from this series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a shared house, these are the options we put on the table:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003ewall unit\u003c\/strong\u003e (4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h) for most bedrooms: mounted high and as quiet as 22 dB(A) in quiet mode, it fades away at bedtime;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003eslim ducted unit\u003c\/strong\u003e (4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h), whose casing is only 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high, for the bedroom where nobody wants to see anything on the wall: it hides in a bulkhead or above a closet and blows through a grille;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003emulti-position air handler\u003c\/strong\u003e (S, M or L chassis, 12,000 to 60,000 BTU\/h) for the common areas, if a duct network already exists in the basement and checking it at the visit allows it;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe \u003cstrong\u003ecompact cassette\u003c\/strong\u003e (4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h) for a finished basement with a standard grid ceiling, with its built-in condensate pump.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe refrigerant piping route is planned at the visit, in this order:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe location of the outdoor unit, on a pad or a bracket; its 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) height and reduced minimum clearances let it sit below a window;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe main run, in 3\/8 - 5\/8 in., toward the heart of the house, through the basement, a utility wall or the attic;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe connections to each bedroom and each common area, along with the drain for each indoor unit;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe total of the lengths, which must stay under the manufacturer's limit of 120 m (393 ft) of piping, a limit 50% more generous than the previous generation's.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAn occupied house sets its own rules. You avoid opening a freshly painted ceiling, you go through a closet rather than the living room, you group the openings together. We show the proposed route to the occupants concerned before drilling the first hole, and the choice of each indoor unit follows that route, so that the whole stays within the outdoor unit's 48,000 BTU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor this system, the manufacturer publishes a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 20.2\u003c\/strong\u003e, an \u003cstrong\u003eHSPF2 of 10.2\u003c\/strong\u003e and an EER2 of 11.4. You will see higher figures elsewhere for the J-7S series, namely 4.64 COP2, 15.7 EER2, 11.3 HSPF2 and 22.2 SEER2: those are series maxima, reached by other combinations. In cold weather, the spec sheet shows a COP of 2.1 at −15 °C and two capacities, 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, different test points that are each read on their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to the brochure cover, heating continues down to −26 °C, with no low-temperature lockout. In a house where seniors live, that is often the deciding argument. The outdoor unit is fitted with a built-in base pan heater and refrigerant-cooled electronics, and the manufacturer rates cooling as reliable up to 50 °C outdoors, where the previous generation was rated to 46 °C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach occupant keeps control of their own room: wireless remote controller, wired remote controller or wired touch remote controller, as preferred. In a rooming house, the wired controller has the advantage of staying in the room when the tenant changes. To follow the whole house at a glance, the owner can install an optional touch panel controller or central remote controller in the entrance or the office. Wi-Fi is also available as an option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen people sleep in every room, refrigerant safety belongs in the discussion. We are talking about \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e here, a low global warming potential refrigerant whose quantity has dropped by 12% since the previous generation; the maximum system charge is 6 kg (13.2 lb). Slim ducted units and multi-position air handlers have a built-in leak detection sensor; wall units and cassettes accept one as an optional kit, and the installation can be rounded out with a gas sensor kit and its audible and visual alarm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the electrical side, the outdoor unit requires 208\/230 V; its MCA is 36 A and its MOP 40 A, and we check the panel's capacity at the visit. Certified \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e under ID 3813053, the system has its outdoor unit on Hydro-Québec's list under AHRI number 216372783, and the LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 grants it a $4,296 subsidy. What remains is to confirm, with you, that your house meets the program's rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance is done room by room, with notice to the occupants: filters, drains and coils first, the outdoor unit next. This system is for families living three generations under one roof, owners of rooming houses and any large house where nine rooms each need their own setting. The AOUK048SSAN7 can take up to 12 indoor units, provided total capacity keeps up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePréville (Saint-Lambert, South Shore): have your house's route planned\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Préville as everywhere on the South Shore, in Longueuil, Laval, Montreal and on the North Shore, AirGreen comes to see the house, draws the piping route and proposes the nine indoor units in a free quote.

Ten indoor units for a single floor, one \u003cstrong\u003eAOUK048SSAN7\u003c\/strong\u003e outdoor unit to supply them: that is the configuration of this GENERAL AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF 48,000 BTU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTechnically, there is nothing to choose between it and the Fujitsu AIRSTAGE version: same outdoor unit, same 10 indoor units, same factories. The manufacturer, known until the end of 2025 as Fujitsu General Limited, has been GENERAL Inc. since January 1, 2026; it publishes a single brochure for both brands and keeps the same warranty, 12 years for the compressor, as many for parts, and 6 years for labour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a building manager or a commercial tenant, the comfort of each office is not enough. You also need to manage the floor from one place and hand the maintenance to one company. The package proposed here meets those three needs: multi-position air handlers and cassettes inside, a \u003cstrong\u003ecentral controller\u003c\/strong\u003e at reception, and AirGreen for the maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePaloma Rheem Holdings, which has overseen Rheem since 1988, became the owner of Fujitsu General in August 2025. From January 1, 2026, the company changed its corporate name to GENERAL Inc. without leaving Kawasaki, Japan, where its head office and R\u0026amp;D centre remain, and without touching the factories. AIRSTAGE products, their model numbers and the warranty program came through the change intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince February 2026, Rheem Canada has been the one selling these units in Canada, and Groupe Master still supplies AirGreen. The Fujitsu brand is being withdrawn in stages, so the same unit can carry either name for a while. For the buyer who has to justify the choice to management, the two pages side by side show clearly that it is the same equipment, and our team, which holds AIRSTAGE Elite Plus installer status, installs one as readily as the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable class=\"tp-compare\" style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth

The J-7S outdoor unit distributes refrigerant to ten indoor units that each work according to the demand of their area: the office in full afternoon sun, the meeting room that fills up all at once, the open area that empties at the end of the day. Each area becomes one of the system's zones, with its own setpoint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo families of indoor units do most of the work on an office floor:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eARUX***KSA1 multi-position air handler\u003c\/strong\u003e: a range of 12,000 to 60,000 BTU\/h, three chassis sizes (S, M or L), 3 fan speeds and 0.8 in. WC of static pressure. Installed in a mechanical space or above the grid ceiling, it connects to ductwork and serves the open area through several grilles. Its leak detection sensor is built in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAUUA***KSA1 compact cassette\u003c\/strong\u003e: from 4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h, made to fit standard grid ceilings, with 6 fan speeds and a built-in condensate pump. It is the unit for closed offices and meeting rooms, since it takes the place of a ceiling tile and needs no ductwork.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWall units (4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h) and 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) slim ducted units remain available for a room with no grid ceiling or a narrow corridor. The split between these families is decided at the visit, based on the partitions, the windows and the ceiling; we do not set it in advance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith ten units, central control really comes into its own. The manufacturer offers a system controller, a \u003cstrong\u003etouch panel controller\u003c\/strong\u003e and a central remote controller as options; installed at reception or in the manager's office, one of these devices brings the ten units together in one spot. Each office can also keep its local control, wired, wired touch or wireless, so the occupant can adjust the room without going through reception. Wi-Fi comes as an option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn a floor where ten units work all week, maintenance is planned, preferably outside office hours. An AirGreen HVAC maintenance visit covers, among other things:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe filters of each air handler and each cassette, reached through the grille or an access panel;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe cassettes' built-in condensate pump and the air handlers' drains;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe indoor coils and the outdoor unit, cleared of snow and debris;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe air handlers' leak detection sensors, and the cassettes' sensors when the optional kit is installed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe values for this 4-ton system are a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 20.2\u003c\/strong\u003e, an HSPF2 of 10.2 and an \u003cstrong\u003eEER2 of 11.4\u003c\/strong\u003e. Don't mix them up with the J-7S series peaks quoted in the documentation, which are range maxima: 15.7 for EER2, 22.2 for SEER2, 4.64 for COP2 and 11.3 for HSPF2. Power is 208\/230 V, for an MCA of 36 A and an MOP of 40 A, and the main piping is 3\/8 - 5\/8 in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAn office building in Laval doesn't close in January. Per the brochure, heating holds down to −26 °C, with no low-temperature lockout, and the published tests for this system give 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, with a COP of 2.1 measured at −15 °C; these are different test points, to be taken as they are. In summer, when sun on the windows and the computers push the heat up, cooling remains dependable up to 50 °C outdoors. The outdoor unit, at 37 × 12-5\/8 × 39-5\/16 in., offers 0.12 in. WC of static pressure and a built-in base pan heater; it sits on a pad or a bracket, with reduced minimum clearances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe refrigerant piping for a full floor can extend over 120 m in total, an increase of 50% over the previous generation. As for the fluid, it is low-GWP R-32, with the charge capped at 6 kg (13.2 lb) for the whole circuit. On top of the air handlers' built-in sensors, two kits can be added on request: the first detects gas and sets off an audible and visual alarm, the second isolates the refrigerant with a shut-off valve that has its own backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe outdoor unit carries AHRI number 216372783 on Hydro-Québec's list, and the system is listed by ENERGY STAR as a cold climate unit, ID 3813053. The LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 mentions it too, with a $4,296 grant; whether office premises qualify remains to be confirmed, which we check with you under the program's rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the visit, we survey the partitions, the height of the grid ceiling, the existing ductwork and the possible location of the outdoor unit. That survey sets the type and capacity of each of the ten indoor units, without exceeding what the 48,000 BTU outdoor unit can supply. This system suits accounting firms, engineering firms, agencies and tenants of a full floor. If the floor expands, the AOUK048SSAN7 accepts up to 12 indoor units, as long as total capacity allows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOffices in the Souvenir area (Laval): ask for your quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAirGreen serves the Souvenir area and all of Laval, as well as Montreal, Longueuil, the North Shore and the South Shore.

The GENERAL AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF 48,000 BTU with 11 indoor units does both with a single \u003cstrong\u003eAOUK048SSAN7\u003c\/strong\u003e outdoor unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the same system as the twin Fujitsu AIRSTAGE, down to the last screw: identical outdoor unit, as many indoor units, same manufacturer's brochure, same warranty, with 12 years of coverage on the compressor and parts and 6 years on labour. Only the manufacturer's name has changed: the former Fujitsu General Limited has traded as GENERAL Inc. since January 1, 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe real work on this project is the sizing. Eleven indoor units share a 4-ton outdoor unit, and the compatibility table in the J-7S brochure starts at 4,000 and 7,000 BTU\/h. Those two smallest capacities make it possible to serve each studio without wasting the capacity the others need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe story fits in two lines. Paloma Rheem Holdings, owner of Rheem since 1988, buys out Fujitsu General in August 2025, and as of January 1, 2026, Fujitsu General Limited renames itself GENERAL Inc. The head office and the R\u0026amp;D centre stay in Kawasaki, Japan, the factories remain the same, and nothing changes for AIRSTAGE model numbers or their warranty program. Historically, the GENERAL brand dates from 1946; it is the company, founded in 1936, that marks the 90th anniversary of its founding in 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fujitsu name, for its part, is being phased out gradually, and the same machine is sold under both names for as long as the transition lasts. The owner who receives two quotes, one \"Fujitsu\" and the other \"GENERAL\", needs to know they are comparing the same unit; that is why we display both pages. Rheem Canada has been in charge of Canadian sales since February 2026, Groupe Master distributes for AirGreen, and we install the range as an AIRSTAGE Elite Plus

The outdoor unit modulates the refrigerant according to each studio's demand: the one belonging to the tenant who works from home heats all day, the night-shift worker's warms up in the late afternoon. The eleven studios thus form as many zones, each set by its tenant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSizing eleven units for a 48,000 BTU outdoor unit is not done by eye. At the visit, we assess each studio separately:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eits floor area, its ceiling height and the number of its exterior walls;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe size and orientation of its windows, which weigh heavily in summer;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eits floor, since a studio under the roof and a studio above the basement don't behave the same way;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe condition of the insulation and air sealing, as far as it can be observed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat survey determines, studio by studio, whether a \u003cstrong\u003e4,000 BTU\/h\u003c\/strong\u003e or a \u003cstrong\u003e7,000 BTU\/h\u003c\/strong\u003e unit fits, or whether to move up a step in the compatibility table, to 9,000 or 12,000 BTU\/h. The total capacity has to respect the outdoor unit; we therefore announce no combination before we have seen the building.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor studios, the \u003cstrong\u003eASUA***KSA1 wall unit\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most direct answer. It covers 4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h, its quiet mode brings it down to 22 dB(A), an asset in a room where people both sleep and live, and its auto swing louvers move air through the whole studio. When a studio has a dropped ceiling over the entrance or the bathroom, a \u003cstrong\u003eslim ducted unit\u003c\/strong\u003e with a casing 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high, available from 4,000 BTU\/h, can hide there and blow through a grille; it has a built-in leak detection sensor. The compact cassette, also available from 4,000 BTU\/h, is kept for grid ceilings, which are less common in housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe complete system posts \u003cstrong\u003e20.2 SEER2\u003c\/strong\u003e, 10.2 HSPF2 and 11.4 EER2. The higher figures associated with the series, a COP2 that climbs to 4.64, a SEER2 of 22.2, an EER2 of 15.7 and an HSPF2 of 11.3, are series maxima, not this system's. For heating, the spec sheet gives 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, two different test points, along with a COP of 2.1 at −15 °C. The manufacturer says heating carries on down to −26 °C with no lockout in low temperatures, and that summer cooling stays reliable up to 50 °C outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor an owner, the wall-mounted controller has one big advantage: it stays in the studio from one lease to the next. Each unit can take a wireless remote controller, a wired remote controller or a wired touch remote controller. The owner can add, as an option, a system controller, a central remote controller or a touch panel controller in a mechanical room, to keep an eye on all eleven units. A Wi-Fi connection is possible as an option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the backyard is narrow, footprint matters. The outdoor unit weighs 15% less and takes up 16% less space than the previous generation; it stands 998 mm (39-5\/16 in.) tall and fits under a window or on a balcony without rising above the railing. It is rated at 60 dB(A), a figure to keep in mind when bedroom windows face the yard. It also has a built-in base pan heater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEleven units mean eleven connections, on refrigerant piping capped at 120 m of total length, half again as much as the previous generation. The route therefore becomes a major part of the quote: common corridors, closets lined up from one floor to the next, ceilings of the common spaces. Electrically, plan for 208\/230 V, with 36 A of MCA and an MOP of 40 A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe system runs on low-GWP R-32, with a maximum charge of 6 kg (13.2 lb). Wall units accept an optional leak sensor kit; on top of that, you can choose gas detection with audible and visual alarm, the refrigerant shut-off valve with backup power, or both, each supplied as a kit. On the paperwork side, the outdoor unit is listed under AHRI number 216372783 on Hydro-Québec's list, the system's ENERGY STAR cold climate designation bears ID 3813053, and the LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 assigns it a \u003cstrong\u003e$4,296 grant\u003c\/strong\u003e. The program's rules for a rental building are checked at the time of the quote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintaining eleven units is coordinated with the tenants. We group the studios on the same floor to clean filters, check drains and inspect coils in a single visit, then finish with the outdoor unit. This system is aimed at the owner of a small studio building, a converted rooming house or a block of micro-units who wants to replace baseboard heaters and window air conditioners with a single installation. The AOUK048SSAN7 accepts up to 12 indoor units, always within the limit of its capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStudio building in Viauville (Montreal): free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAirGreen, an HVAC contractor, comes to Viauville and all of east-end Montreal, as well as Laval, Longueuil, the North Shore and the South Shore.

The GENERAL AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF 48,000 BTU with 12 indoor units is aimed at the small commercial or institutional building that wants a single machine outside for all of its rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNothing separates it from the twin Fujitsu AIRSTAGE with 12 indoor units. It is the same \u003cstrong\u003eAOUK048SSAN7 outdoor unit\u003c\/strong\u003e, built by the same company, which since January 1, 2026 has carried the name GENERAL Inc. instead of Fujitsu General Limited. A single manufacturer's brochure describes both versions, and the warranty is identical, 12 years on the compressor as on parts and 6 years on labour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorking at an outdoor unit's maximum changes the way the project is designed. There will be no room for a thirteenth unit later, each indoor unit has to be sized as tightly as possible, and the refrigerant piping, limited to 120 m in total, becomes a resource to share among twelve connections. We discuss it frankly before you sign anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe background fits in three dates. In August 2025, Fujitsu General passes into the hands of Paloma Rheem Holdings, Rheem's owner since 1988; on January 1, 2026, Fujitsu General Limited is renamed GENERAL Inc.; in February 2026, Rheem Canada takes over Canadian sales. Meanwhile, nothing moved in Kawasaki: same head office, same R\u0026amp;D centre, same factories, same AIRSTAGE products and same model numbers, under the same warranty program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the Fujitsu brand is being phased out, the same equipment can leave the warehouse with either logo during the transition. In a public or private tender, that double name can raise doubts; two pages published side by side clear them up. Groupe Master remains the distributor for AirGreen, an AIRSTAGE Elite Plus installer for both brands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable class=\"tp-compare\"

Twelve units mean twelve zones, each set for its occupants: the reception office, the consultation room, the meeting room, the records room that is barely heated. Each unit is picked room by room from one of the four J-7S families, whose units and accessories only work with J-7S outdoor units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat the 12-unit maximum means in practice:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo additional unit.\u003c\/strong\u003e If an expansion is already planned, say so at the visit: a second system may then make more sense than a first one pushed to its limit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapacities sized tightly.\u003c\/strong\u003e The smallest capacities in the compatibility table, 4,000 and 7,000 BTU\/h, have their place in closed offices, and the total of all units must respect the outdoor unit's 48,000 BTU.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePiping to budget.\u003c\/strong\u003e The maximum total length of 120 m (393 ft), 50% more than the previous generation, is shared among all the connections; a distant room uses up a good part of it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA central controller that is close to essential.\u003c\/strong\u003e Managing twelve units one at a time makes no sense for a building manager; a central remote controller, a touch panel controller or a system controller, available as options, bring it all together.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a small commercial building, all four families find their place. The \u003cstrong\u003ecompact cassette\u003c\/strong\u003e (4,000 to 18,000 BTU\/h) fits the standard grid ceilings of offices and consultation rooms, with its built-in condensate pump. The slim ducted unit, 198 mm (7-13\/16 in.) high and capable of 0.36 in. WC of static pressure, hides in a corridor and serves a room through grilles. For a large room on ductwork, the multi-position air handler offers 12,000 to 60,000 BTU\/h and 0.8 in. WC of static pressure. The wall unit (4,000 to 14,000 BTU\/h) remains the solution for a small room without a grid ceiling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a building open to the public, refrigerant safety is part of the file. The J-7S refrigerant, \u003cstrong\u003eR-32\u003c\/strong\u003e, has a low GWP; the manufacturer uses 12% less of it than in the previous generation, and the charge of the entire system does not exceed 6 kg (13.2 lb). A leak detection sensor comes factory-built into slim ducted units and multi-position air handlers; cassettes and wall units take one as an optional kit. To go further, the manufacturer also offers two kits: a gas sensor paired with an audible and visual alarm, as well as a refrigerant shut-off valve with its own backup power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to the manufacturer, this 4-ton system reaches a \u003cstrong\u003eSEER2 of 20.2\u003c\/strong\u003e; its HSPF2 is 10.2 and its EER2 11.4. The brochure mentions higher maxima for the J-7S series as a whole (EER2 of 15.7, HSPF2 of 11.3, COP2 of 4.64 and SEER2 of 22.2 at most), which do not apply to this configuration. In heating mode, two capacities appear on the spec sheet, measured at different test points: 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C; the published COP at −15 °C is 2.1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWinter shows no mercy in Blainville. According to the brochure cover, this system heats down to −26 °C without stopping in low temperatures; its outdoor unit relies on a built-in base pan heater and on refrigerant-cooled electronics. In summer, the reliable cooling range extends up to 50 °C outdoors, where the previous generation topped out at 46 °C. As for placement, the 37 × 12-5\/8 × 39-5\/16 in. (940 × 320 × 998 mm) unit makes do with reduced minimum clearances and is rated for 0.12 in. WC of static pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation starts with a complete survey. Our refrigeration technician draws each connection on the building plan, adds up the lengths to stay under the 120 m allowed, locates the drains and validates the electrical service, a 208\/230 V supply with an MCA of 36 A and an MOP of 40 A, along with the 3\/8 - 5\/8 in. main piping. The type and capacity of each of the twelve units are set at this stage, never before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the occupants, each room can keep its wired remote controller, wired touch remote controller or wireless remote controller; as for Wi-Fi, it is available as an option. Maintenance on a twelve-unit system is planned like that of a small commercial building: filters, drains, condensate pumps, sensors and the outdoor unit, at a frequency set with you based on how the rooms are used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAHRI number 216372783 is the outdoor unit's number on Hydro-Québec's list, and the system is \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR cold climate\u003c\/strong\u003e certified (ID 3813053). On the LogisVert list of October 27, 2026, the grant shown is $4,296; for a commercial or institutional building, the program's rules decide eligibility, and we help you check it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis system suits the owner of a small office building, an organization occupying a twelve-room building, a neighbourhood clinic or a service centre that wants one piece of outdoor equipment, one supplier and one warranty. When the building goes beyond what 48,000 BTU and twelve units can serve, we say so right away and propose another configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBlainville (Fontainebleau, North Shore): get your free quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrom Fontainebleau to the rest of Blainville and the North Shore, all the way to Laval, Montreal, Longueuil and the South Shore, AirGreen, an HVAC contractor, prepares a free quote after surveying your twelve rooms. A call to 514 316-2973 is all it takes to schedule that survey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"GENERAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67944724594980,"sku":"AOUK048SSAN7-12","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/00_VRF_GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J7S_48000_BTU_12_UNITES_INTERIEURES_CARTE_PRINCIPALE_MONTREAL_LAVAL_LONGUEUIL_RIVE_SUD_RIVE_NORD_a357f378-8caf-4f01-827e-030379e14512.png?v=1793184048"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/collections\/00_MINI_VRF_GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J7S_24000_BTU_1_UNITE_INTERIEURE_CARTE_PRINCIPALE_MONTREAL_LAVAL_LONGUEUIL_RIVE_SUD_RIVE_NORD_edfa0dc6-e839-4537-b198-b1fa55402d23.png?v=1793184671","url":"https:\/\/airgreen.ca\/en\/collections\/systeme-vrf-general-airstage-montreal-laval-monteregie.oembed","provider":"AirGreen Climatisation \u0026 Chauffage \/ Air Conditioning \u0026 Heating","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
