Clivia platform: seven names, five certified combinations

GREE CLIVIA, KINGHOME CLIVIA, GREE CROSSOVER, GREE VIREO, GREE ENVO, TOSOT CLIVIA and TOSOT PULAR: seven 12,000 BTU R-32 wall units whose AHRI certificates match almost line for line. Thirteen values out of seventeen are identical. The other four, all at 8.3 °C or −8.3 °C, split into five combinations. Here they are, and how to recognize each name.

The variant matrix

Seven names, seventeen certified values, five combinations

Each column is a name, each row a value published by NEEP. The same color within a row means the same value. Tap a name: the columns that carry exactly its seventeen values get a teal outline, and only the cells that differ from it stay colored.

AHRI values published by NEEP, 208/230 V 12,000 BTU versions, verified November 9, 2026. Capacities in BTU/h.

From mild weather to extreme cold

The gaps are in mild weather; in the cold, a single line

The five combinations, certified point by certified point. At 8.3 °C and −8.3 °C, the lines separate. At −15 °C they all meet, and at the coldest point, −30 °C, only one remains.

Estimated operating cost

One estimate for all seven names

AirGreen estimate for the same 12,000 BTU/h zone in Montréal, at Hydro-Québec Rate D, taxes included. The calculation uses the certificate’s HSPF2 Region V and SEER2: 8.0 and 24.5 for all seven names. The two columns show the GREE CLIVIA R32 and the TOSOT PULAR R32, the two names whose certificates are furthest apart at −8.3 °C: the amount is the same, to the dollar. Electric baseboards serve as the reference point.

How this amount is calculated
  1. Heat to supply over the winter. A zone whose heat loss reaches 12,000 BTU/h ( kW) at −23.1 °C, Montréal’s design temperature: kW × 24 h × 4,167 degree-days ÷ (18 − (−23.1)) = kWh of heat for round-the-clock heating, all winter. Heating degree-days (18 °C base) and design temperature: Natural Resources Canada, HOT2000 climate data, Montréal Intl station. With fewer hours a day (“Heating” slider), the heat is reduced in the same proportion, for the heat pump and the baseboards alike: a simplification that ignores the recovery after a temperature setback.
  2. Electricity for heating. Heat pump: heat × 3.412 ÷ HSPF2 Region V, the AHRI certificate value published by NEEP. Region V is the coldest in the standard, and its calculation includes the electric backup expected when the heat pump is no longer enough. Electric baseboards: 1 kWh of electricity for 1 kWh of heat.
  3. Electricity for cooling. 12,000 BTU/h ÷ SEER2 × hours per day × 60 days ÷ 1,000: the method of Hydro-Québec’s air-conditioning calculator, with the SEER2 seasonal efficiency from the AHRI certificate. The number of hours is a scenario, adjustable above from 1 to 24 h. At 24 h, the calculation assumes rated capacity all day: that is a ceiling, since a variable-speed unit slows down once the room is at the right temperature.
  4. Price. Hydro-Québec Rate D in effect April 1, 2026: 7.065¢ per kWh up to 40 kWh a day, 11.142¢ beyond; the average price, 9.104¢, is the one Hydro-Québec’s calculators use. GST and QST included. Grid access charges, the same with or without a heat pump, are not counted.

AirGreen method v1.1, November 9, 2026. An estimate is for comparing units under the same conditions. The actual bill depends on the house, insulation, settings and use; this amount is not a promise.

The fine print to know

What really sets the seven names apart

The shared figures are many, but the details matter. Here is what the NEEP records and the manufacturers’ documents show when read one by one.

Two names, two perfect pairs

The GREE CROSSOVER and the GREE VIREO carry exactly the same 17 values, across two certificates (215402266 and 214813257). Same for the GREE ENVO and the TOSOT CLIVIA (214779344 and 215399271). The other three names each have their own combination.

Rated COP at −8.3 °C ranges from 2.11 to 2.91

This is the row where the seven certificates differ most: 2.11 (GREE CLIVIA), 2.14 (CROSSOVER, VIREO), 2.88 (KINGHOME CLIVIA), 2.90 (ENVO, TOSOT CLIVIA) and 2.91 (TOSOT PULAR). The maximum capacity at this temperature, 12,000 BTU/h, is the same for all.

ENVO and TOSOT CLIVIA: 10,000 BTU/h rated at −8.3 °C

These two certificates give 10,000 BTU/h of rated capacity at −8.3 °C, versus 12,000 for the other five, with a rated COP of 2.90. At 8.3 °C, their maximum capacity is 15,690 BTU/h (COP 3.28), versus 14,600 (COP 3.72).

The HSPF2 does not move

Despite these gaps, the seven certificates show the same HSPF2 of 9.5 (Region IV) and 8.0 (Region V) and the same SEER2 of 24.5. Hence a single cost estimate above.

NEEP lists the CROSSOVER as “Pular”

NEEP lists the GREE CROSSOVER R32 in the series “Pular”, the other six in the “Clivia” series. Yet its values are the same as the VIREO’s. So the NEEP series name alone does not tell you whether two units are alike.

Published sound depends on the document

The GREE CLIVIA R32 brochure gives 48/44/40 dB(A) over three speeds; the GREE Canada CROSSOVER R32 sheet gives 20 to 43 dB(A) over eight levels. The measurement method is not stated: these figures cannot be compared with each other. No TOSOT document was found.

Telling them apart

Four outdoor units for seven names

The outdoor unit’s model number is the surest way to know which combination you have. It is on the nameplate and on the AHRI certificate.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask about the Clivia platform

GREE CLIVIA, CROSSOVER, VIREO, ENVO, KINGHOME CLIVIA, TOSOT CLIVIA and TOSOT PULAR: what is the difference?

Their AHRI certificates share 13 values out of 17: SEER2 24.5, EER2 13.0, HSPF2 9.5 / 8.0, the whole −15 °C point and the −30 °C point. The gaps are in four rows at 8.3 °C and −8.3 °C (maximum capacity at 8.3 °C, COP at that capacity, rated capacity and rated COP at −8.3 °C). The indoor unit, remote, app and warranty may also vary from one name to another.

Which ones have exactly the same certified values?

Two pairs: GREE CROSSOVER R32 and GREE VIREO R32, then GREE ENVO R32 and TOSOT CLIVIA R32. Each pair carries the same 17 values on two separate certificates.

Which one heats more at −15 °C and −30 °C?

All seven have the same certified values at these temperatures: 11,000 BTU/h (COP 1.95) at −15 °C and 7,300 BTU/h maximum (COP 1.51) at −30 °C.

Does the operating cost change from one name to another?

No, in our method: the calculation uses HSPF2 Region V (8.0) and SEER2 (24.5), identical on all seven certificates.

Why is the GREE CROSSOVER in a different NEEP series?

NEEP lists it in the “Pular” series and the other six in the “Clivia” series. Yet its certified values are identical to those of the GREE VIREO R32, in the “Clivia” series. This page compares values, not series names.

How do I know which combination I have?

By the outdoor unit’s model number, on its nameplate: GWH12AGCXD-D6DNA4D/O (GREE CLIVIA, CROSSOVER), VIR12HP230V1R32AO (VIREO), ENV12HP230V1R32AO (ENVO), KW12XQ25S1DO (KINGHOME CLIVIA) or TW12HP32A2DO (TOSOT CLIVIA, TOSOT PULAR), then by the AHRI certificate number.

Are they eligible for rebates?

Eligibility depends on the official list in effect on the date of purchase. This page promises no amount; the current list is checked at the time of the quote.
