A Central HVAC Solution Designed for Quebec's Climate
At AirGreen, we install and optimize central HVAC systems adapted to the realities of Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, the North Shore, and the South Shore. The GREE FLEXX ULTRA R32 Air Handler | 2 Tons - 24000 BTU fits this logic: a high-performance indoor unit, designed to work with a modern central heat pump, capable of ensuring stable comfort even when temperatures drop below -20 °C.
This model, identified by the number GUD24AH2/E-D(U) and certified AHRI 216621482, is designed to be paired with an outdoor unit like the GUD36W2/NHE-D(U). Together, they form an efficient central system, eligible for programs like LogisVert (a subsidy of approximately $2472).
Real Performance and Energy Efficiency: What It Changes on the Ground
Capacity and Performance in Quebec Conditions
This model offers a cooling capacity of 24,000 BTU, with stable performance even in heating at low temperatures:
- Power at -8 °C: 20,600 BTU
- Power at -15 °C: 24,000 BTU
- Operates down to -30 °C
These figures are not theoretical: at AirGreen, we have installed this system in several properties on the South Shore (Boucherville, Longueuil) where clients sought to replace inefficient oil or electric systems. The result: a significant reduction in energy costs and thermal stability even during cold snaps.
According to the technical brochure, the FLEXX system offers an impressive operating range, from -30 °C in heating to 54 °C in cooling, making it a versatile solution for all seasons.
Efficiency Indicators
- SEER2: up to 18-19
- HSPF2: up to 10.5
- EER2: up to 12.5
- COP at -8 °C: 2.03
These data indicate excellent energy efficiency, particularly important for homeowners in Montreal looking to maximize subsidies and reduce their consumption.
ENERGY STAR and Cold Climate
- Certified ENERGY STAR
- Certified ENERGY STAR Cold Climate
This point is essential: many systems advertised as high-performing do not hold up in real Quebec conditions. This model, however, is specifically designed for these environments.
Technical Design: What Truly Distinguishes This System
R-32 Refrigerant: A Strategic Advantage
The switch to R-32 is a major change in the HVAC industry:
- Improved energy efficiency
- Reduced environmental impact
- Improved heating performance
At AirGreen, we strongly recommend R-32 systems for new installations in Montreal and Laval, as they represent the future of the market.
Airflow and Dehumidification
- CFM: 1800 to 1500
- Dehumidification: 7.73 pints/hour
In several projects in Longueuil, particularly in houses with damp basements, this dehumidification capacity has significantly improved indoor comfort, especially in summer.
Sound Level
- Indoor: 50 dB(A)
- Outdoor: approximately 60 dB(A)
This is an often overlooked factor. In installations in condos in Montreal, we have found that this reduced sound level improves overall comfort, especially in open spaces.
HVAC Installation: What You Absolutely Need to Know
Configuration and Compatibility
This system works with:
- Standard 24 VAC thermostat
- Ultra Heat and Dual Fuel systems
- Piping 3/8 - 3/4
It can be integrated into:
- Single-family homes
- Duplexes / triplexes
- Multi-unit buildings
- Small businesses
Dimensions and Space Constraints
- Indoor dimensions: 18.13 x 21.25 x 43.5 inches
- Vertical or horizontal installation possible depending on configuration
In several projects in Laval, we used this model in confined technical spaces, particularly in mechanical closets, thanks to its compact design.
Piping Length
- Up to 30 meters (98.4 feet)
This offers great installation flexibility, especially for homes with complex architectural constraints.
AirGreen Real Case: Replacement of a Central System in Laval
A client in Laval was using an old central electric system with high costs in winter. After analysis, we recommended the GREE FLEXX ULTRA 2 tons.
Initial Problems:
- High electricity bills
- Unstable temperature
- Excessive noise
AirGreen Solution:
- Full installation of the FLEXX system
- Ductwork optimization
- Addition of smart control
Result:
- Over 30% reduction in energy bills
- Constant thermal comfort
- Significant improvement in sound level
Common Mistakes to Avoid with This Type of System
1. Undersizing or Oversizing
A 24,000 BTU system is not suitable for all homes. At AirGreen, we always perform a precise thermal load calculation.
2. Improper Ductwork Configuration
Even the best air handler will not perform correctly with a poorly designed network.
3. Non-specialized Installation
This type of system requires certified refrigeration technicians. Incorrect installation can drastically reduce performance.
