On your furnace: which Hylex, which coil?

Pick your options to see the models, the AHRI number, the heat at -8 °C, the LogisVert amount when there is one, and what to plan for.

1Which range?
2What capacity?

Capacity is worked out during the visit, from the house and your ducts. Samsung recommends a two-stage thermostat.

For all: heating down to -25 °C per Samsung; MXD-U001XN control unit required, sold separately.

02 · On your furnace

Your furnace stays. The HC coil sits on top of it.

No HH unit here: the Hylex coil goes on your furnace, and the outdoor unit connects to it with two lines. We don’t touch the burner or the gas or oil supply.

What gets added
  • The Hylex HC coil, on the furnace
  • The MXD-U001XN control unit
  • The HA00A00203H1 mitigation controller

An electric furnace? The HH unit takes its place.

03 · Who does what

Your furnace, our heat pump, Hydro-Québec’s sensor.

An add-on brings several parties around one house. Tap a part of the diagram: we tell you who handles it.

AirGreenHydro-QuébecYou or your fuel specialist

Outdoor unit and lines

Sold and installed by AirGreen: the Hylex outdoor unit, the refrigerant lines and start-up. RBQ 5645-9605-01, subclasses 15.8, 15.10 and 16. We register the unit with Samsung.

One source at a timeHydro-Québec requires it on Rate DT, and the Samsung control unit enforces it in dual fuel.

For Rate DT, Hydro-Québec itself lists a conventional central heat pump among the accepted electric modes. Simplified illustration.

RBQ licence: Régie du bâtiment du Québec.

04 · Heat pump or furnace?

Drop the temperature: who heats?

With an add-on, the Hylex and your furnace share the winter, never heating together. Slide the temperature and change the switch point.

Switch point

The MXD-U001XN control unit can lock the heat pump out at a chosen temperature, from 7 °C (45 °F) down to -29 °C (-20 °F) in 5 °F steps, or not at all. On Hydro-Québec’s dual-energy Rate DT, Hydro-Québec sets the switch: -12 °C or -15 °C, depending on the region.

05 · On the furnace

The HC coil: built-in detector, separate mitigation control.

The Hylex coil sits on your furnace. It has its own R-454B detector; Samsung requires a mitigation controller to act on a leak, and the MXD-U001XN control unit to run the furnace.

06 · The coil’s drain pan

On your furnace, a high-temperature polymer drain pan.

In summer, the coil makes water. Samsung designed its pan around that. Tap the points, pick your drain side, then block it to see what happens.

Your floor drain is
FurnaceACU
SAMSUNG

High-temperature polymer

“UV resistant drain pans are molded of high temperature (450°F) engineered polymer.” The pan is UV resistant, per Samsung.

Full pan: the Hylex shuts down.

The control unit has an input for a float switch (CN950 port, dry contact). Full pan: the system shuts down, and you get a notice in SmartThings (internet needed) or on the Samsung wall control. Samsung supplies the wire; the switch itself is bought separately.

A curious fact: the coil’s drain pan has its own antimicrobial additive, Microban, per Samsung. Data read on the HC60MBC021H1 coil submittal, the only Hylex coil Samsung publishes a full sheet for. Simplified illustration.

07 · Measure before our visit

Measure the furnace cabinet left to right where the air comes out. Jot down the brand and model too: it helps us prep the visit. Samsung makes three “60” class coils in two widths: 21 in and 24.5 in. Only the HC60MBC021H1 has a full sheet: 21 × 27 1/2 × 21 in, 58 lb.

08 · Plan for

On your furnace: two required Samsung parts.

With an HC coil, Samsung requires the MXD-U001XN control unit and the HA00A00203H1 mitigation controller, both sold separately. No heat kit: your furnace is the backup.

AlwaysThe MXD-U001XN control unit

Required by Samsung on every Hylex, even with its own indoor unit, and sold separately. We include it in the quote.

With an HC coilThe HA00A00203H1 mitigation controller

Required by Samsung, sold separately. The detector is in the coil; the controller shuts the system down and runs the mitigation.

For dual fuelThe right thermostat

You need a Samsung communicating control or a 24 V thermostat that supports dual fuel, per Samsung. Two stages recommended.

Not neededNo heat kit

Your furnace is the backup. Samsung heat kits go in the HH unit, not on a coil.

09 · Hydro-Québec LogisVert

As an add-on, $1,812 or $2,592 with the Premium.

The 2- and 3-ton Premium add-ons are ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified. The 5-ton Premium add-on is not on the ENERGY STAR list, and the Standard is not certified. Pick a system to see the math.

ENERGY STAR cold climate: $120 / 1,000 BTU/hNo amount (reason shown)

Source: Hydro-Québec, list of heat pumps eligible for LogisVert (owner, existing home), amounts re-read Oct. 26, 2026, by AHRI number; Participation guide v1.10 (Sept. 15, 2026). Hydro-Québec’s list prevails; the final amount is confirmed when you apply. The program rules are explained once, on the Samsung page. Our LogisVert guide

10 · Same outdoor unit, different indoor unit

Same outdoor unit, different coil: the amount changes.

LogisVert doesn’t pay for an outdoor unit, it pays for a pairing. Pick a Premium size and compare the HH unit with the HC coil.

The amounts shown are those on Hydro-Québec’s list; Hydro-Québec confirms them on application, capped at 100% of the pre-tax cost, claim within nine months. One pairing or the other: two choices, not two amounts to add up. At 3 tons, the add-on gets more than the central system, because its heat at -8 °C is higher.

11 · The dual-energy rate

Heat pump + furnace: Hydro-Québec’s Rate DT.

A central heat pump with a gas, oil or propane furnace may qualify for Hydro-Québec’s Rate DT. Here are Hydro-Québec’s rules.

-12 / -15 °CThe switch

Electricity at -12 °C or warmer (or -15 °C, depending on the region); fuel below, per Hydro-Québec.

Hydro-Québec sensorAutomatic

A temperature sensor that Hydro-Québec supplies and installs drives the switch from one source to the other.

Never togetherOne source at a time

Using both sources at once is not allowed on Rate DT. The Hylex works the same way in dual fuel.

Gas, oil…The fuels

Natural gas, oil, propane or wood pellets as backup. On the electric side, Hydro-Québec lists a conventional central heat pump.

2 registersThe meter

A double-register meter measures electricity at the two prices. The account must qualify for rates D, DP or DM.

The lightOptional

An indicator light shows which price your electricity is billed at. Hydro-Québec supplies it free; installing it is optional.

Source: Hydro-Québec, Rate DT and How Rate DT works pages, read Oct. 14, 2026. Rate DT conditions are set by Hydro-Québec: we tell you the steps. Hydro-Québec does not say which region switches at -12 °C and which at -15 °C.

15 · True or false

The Hylex add-on, in six claims.

True or false? Flip the cards.

0/ 6

Pick True or False: the card flips to show the answer and its source.

01

With a Hylex add-on, your furnace stays in place.

02

In deep cold, the Hylex and the furnace heat together.

03

The Hylex coil has its own leak detector.

04

The HA00A00203H1 mitigation controller is optional.

05

The Hylex coil’s drain pan has two drain outlets, one left, one right.

06

On Rate DT, a Hydro-Québec sensor decides the switch.

16 · Frequently asked questions

What people ask about the Hylex add-on.

No. We install the coil on the furnace and the heat pump outside; we don’t touch the burner or the gas or oil supply. That stays with your fuel specialist.

No. Samsung doesn’t allow the heat pump and a backup source to run at the same time, and Hydro-Québec rules out using both sources at once on Rate DT.

Maybe. For dual fuel, Samsung requires a Samsung communicating control or a 24 V thermostat that supports it, and recommends two stages. We check yours at the visit.

The one with the right width and the right pairing: Samsung coils are 17.5, 21 or 24.5 in wide. We measure the furnace at the visit.

It may: Hydro-Québec names the central heat pump among the accepted electric modes, with a fuel backup (natural gas, oil, propane or wood pellets). The sensor and the meter are installed by Hydro-Québec.

No question matches. Call us: 514 316-2973.
