A High-Performance Central Solution for Quebec's Climate

At AirGreen, we regularly install central systems capable of performing in the demanding conditions of Greater Montreal, from the North Shore to the South Shore. The FUJITSU CENTAURI R32 2-ton (24,000 BTU) electric furnace stands out precisely for its ability to offer stable comfort, even when temperatures drop drastically.

This model, combined with the AOUH24KUAS1 central heat pump, provides a complete HVAC heating and air conditioning solution. It is designed for homeowners seeking a reliable, compact central system that meets modern energy efficiency requirements.

Why the Fujitsu Centauri series truly stands out

Cold climate performance: an essential criterion in Quebec

One of the most important aspects for our customers in Montreal, Laval, and Longueuil is winter performance. The Centauri series is designed to operate efficiently down to -21 °C, without automatic shutdown, which is a major advantage compared to many competing systems.

In our recent installations in Boucherville and Laval, we observed that this system maintains consistent heat even during prolonged cold spells, thereby reducing reliance on auxiliary heating systems.

Inverter Technology: Stability and Real Savings

The Inverter (variable frequency compressor) technology allows the system to adjust its power in real-time. The result:

• Stable indoor temperature
• Reduced on/off cycles
• Optimized energy consumption

In a residential project in Longueuil, a client observed approximately a 22% reduction in their energy bill after replacing an old standard electric system.

Essential Technical Details of the 24,000 BTU Model

Capacities and Performance

• Cooling capacity: 24,000 BTU
• Heating power at -15 °C: 24,600 BTU
• Power at -8 °C: 18,200 BTU
• SEER2: 17.3
• HSPF2: 10.1
• COP at -8 °C: 2.14

These figures represent an excellent balance between performance and efficiency, particularly for single-family homes and small apartment buildings.

Dehumidification and Indoor Comfort

With a capacity of 3.08 pt/h, this system efficiently manages humidity — a critical factor during the humid summers of Montreal and Montérégie.

During an installation in Repentigny, this feature helped stabilize humidity levels in a poorly ventilated house, significantly improving comfort.

HVAC Installation: What We've Learned in the Field

Exceptional Installation Flexibility

The FUJITSU CENTAURI air handling unit is multi-position, allowing for:

• Vertical or horizontal installation
• Adaptation to confined spaces
• Easy integration into technical basements

We recently installed this model in a duplex in Laval where mechanical space was very limited. Thanks to its compactness (17.5 x 21 x 43 inches), the installation was carried out without major structural modifications.

Piping and Compatibility

• Pipe dimensions: 1/4 – 1/2
• Compatible with several existing configurations
• Cost reduction when existing piping is reusable

However, we always recommend a prior inspection. A common mistake among customers is to assume that old piping is compatible, which can lead to unforeseen additional costs.

R-32 Refrigerant: A Strategic Choice

The system uses R-32, a modern refrigerant offering:

• 68% reduction in global warming potential (GWP) compared to R-410A
• Improved thermal efficiency
• Reduced fluid quantity

At AirGreen, we prioritize R-32 systems for clients concerned about their environmental impact, especially in new projects in Montreal.

Acoustic Comfort and Quality of Life

Noise level

• Indoor: 28 to 42 dB(A)
• Outdoor: 54 dB(A)

This makes it a particularly quiet system. In a recent installation on the South Shore, the client noted a significant reduction in noise compared to their old central system.

Connectivity and Advanced Control

Modern options available

• WiFi (optional)
• 24V thermostat compatibility
• Integration with home automation systems (BACnet / Modbus)
• Control via mobile app

These options enable intelligent system management, particularly for owners of multiplexes or commercial buildings.

Subsidies and Return on Investment

This model is eligible for a LogisVert subsidy of $2184, which significantly reduces the initial cost.

In several concrete cases in Montreal and Laval, this financial aid allowed clients to choose a more efficient system without exceeding their initial budget.

Mistakes to avoid before buying

At AirGreen, we regularly observe the same mistakes:

• Choosing inadequate capacity (oversized or undersized)
• Neglecting the quality of installation
• Ignoring compatibility with the existing system
• Relying solely on price without considering actual efficiency

A client in Longueuil initially chose a cheaper but inefficient system at low temperatures. After replacement with a FUJITSU CENTAURI, winter performance was completely transformed.
