ELIOS e-Multi multi-zone heat pumps
One ELIOS compressor, up to six rooms: the combination table decides, not the BTU.
Four e-Multi outdoor units, 18,000 to 48,000 BTU/h, 3 to 6 heads each. Each head has a score, and the sum of the scores must appear in the ELIOS table. Below, a planner checks your combination.

The duel
Two compressors side by side: what you gain by going one size up.
Pick two outdoor units: certified heat, cold, SEER2 and LogisVert.
AirGreen × ELIOS
One ELIOS compressor for the house, a local team for the plan.
ELIOS publishes the allowed combinations. AirGreen chooses the heads room by room and runs the lines.
What ELIOS brings
- Up to 6 headsOn the 48,000 BTU/h outdoor unit.
- 312 combinationsListed in the ELIOS table for our four compressors.
- R-454BLeak sensor and shut-off valve in every head.
What AirGreen brings
- Sold and installed by AirGreenAcross Greater Montreal.
- Free on-site estimateThe quotation names the ELIOS model that fits and the LogisVert amount Hydro-Québec lists.
- RBQ 5645-9605-01Subclasses 15.8, 15.10 and 16.
The result: a single ELIOS compressor outside, the right head in every room, installed by AirGreen.
The planner
Pick the compressor, add your rooms: the ELIOS table answers.
Each head size has a score. If the combination is in the ELIOS table, it is allowed; otherwise change a head or the compressor.

Questions
Questions about ELIOS e-Multi multi-zone systems.
How many rooms can an e-Multi serve?
2 to 3 on the 18,000, up to 4 on the 27,000, 5 on the 36,000 and 6 on the 48,000. The ELIOS table also sets which head sizes go together.
Why is my combination refused when the BTU fit?
Because ELIOS does not count in BTU: each head has a score, and only the sums listed in the table are allowed. For example, three heads on the 18,000 can only be 6,000 or 9,000 units.
Can a wall unit and a ducted unit be mixed?
Yes, ELIOS allows wall, ducted, cassette and console heads on one compressor. Some combinations exclude the 1-way cassette: we validate with the ELIOS tool.
Does LogisVert change with the number of heads?
No: it follows the system’s certified capacity at −8 °C. On the Oct. 25, 2026 list: $1,920 (18,000), $2,832 (27,000), $3,720 (36,000), $4,416 (48,000).
Is there an e-Multi that heats at −30 °C?
ELIOS publishes an EXZ family rated to −30 °C. The systems on this page are the EXS family, rated to −25 °C. Tell us about your house: we compare.
How far can the heads be?
35 m per head and 80 m in total from 27,000 to 48,000 (30 and 60 m on the 18,000), 15 m of height to the outdoor unit, 10 m between heads, and at least 3 m per head.
What happens if a head detects a leak?
The head’s fan runs to disperse the refrigerant, an automatic shut-off valve isolates the circuit and the compressor stops, per the 2026 e-Multi brochure.
What warranty on an e-Multi?
ELIOS publishes 1 year on parts and 5 years on the compressor, with optional 10-year coverage. ELIOS publishes no labour warranty.
