A Compact and High-Performance HVAC Solution for Residential and Multi-Dwelling Spaces
At AirGreen, we are seeing a marked evolution in the needs for central electric heating in Greater Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, the North Shore, and the South Shore. Customers are looking for reliable, compact systems compatible with new generations of heat pumps. The SAMSUNG HYLEX STANDARD R454B | 2 Ton electric furnace precisely meets these requirements, offering seamless integration with modern central heat pumps while simplifying installation in confined spaces.
This model particularly stands out in projects where mechanical space is limited, especially in recent condos, duplexes, and multi-dwelling buildings. We have recently installed it in several units in Montreal (Griffintown, Rosemont) and on the South Shore (Brossard, Longueuil), with very convincing results.
A Design Conceived for Real-World Installation
Compatibility and Installation Flexibility
The SAMSUNG HYLEX STANDARD is designed to work with central heat pumps using R-454B refrigerant, particularly the AC024FCUDCG model. This compatibility ensures optimal performance of the overall system.
Here's what makes it particularly interesting for our installation teams:
- Multi-position configuration: vertical, horizontal left/right, and downflow
- Simplified connections thanks to optimized low-voltage wiring
- Easy access to front panels for quick maintenance
- Compact dimensions (15 x 22 x 36 inches) ideal for confined spaces
In a project carried out in Laval, we replaced a bulky old furnace in a very narrow technical closet. The HYLEX allowed for a clean installation without major structural modifications, which reduced intervention time and costs for the client.
Smart Integration with Modern Systems
The system includes a control unit (ACU) allowing:
- Management via 24VAC thermostat
- Compatibility with communicating Samsung controllers
- WiFi connectivity via SmartThings for remote control
- Advanced management of auxiliary heating configurations
In several installations on the North Shore, we have configured hybrid systems where the furnace acts as intelligent auxiliary heating, activated only when temperatures drop below a certain threshold.
Energy Performance and Operation in Quebec Conditions
Capacity and Efficiency
- Nominal power: 24,000 BTU (2 tons)
- Capacity at -8°C: 14,900 BTU
- Capacity at -15°C: 18,200 BTU
- Operation down to -25°C
These performances ensure stable thermal comfort even during harsh Quebec winters.
Although the model is not ENERGY STAR certified, it remains highly relevant when integrated into a complete system with a heat pump, where overall efficiency is optimized.
Advanced Ventilation Technology
The high-efficiency ECM fan offers:
- 5 adjustable speeds
- Silent and vibration-free operation
- Automatic air flow adaptation
In a project in Longueuil, a client complained about temperature variations between floors. After installing the HYLEX, air flow management allowed for better thermal distribution throughout the house.
Robust Construction and Durability
Manufacturing Quality
- Galvanized steel structure with resistant finish
- Internal insulation with heavy steel panels
- Air leakage limited to less than 2% (ETL laboratory tested)
These features ensure increased durability and better long-term energy efficiency.
Drainage Management and Hygiene
The HYDROTEC™ drain pan:
- Reduces water accumulation
- Limits mold risks
- Integrates Microban® antimicrobial protection
In several buildings in Montreal, this type of detail makes a real difference, especially in environments where humidity can become problematic.
R-454B Refrigerant: A Future-Proof Choice
The transition to R-454B represents a significant evolution in the HVAC industry:
- Reduced environmental impact (lower GWP)
- Improved thermal efficiency
- Compliance with new standards
At AirGreen, we are already prioritizing this type of system in our new installations on the South Shore and in Montreal, in anticipation of future regulations.
Real Case: Installation in a Montreal Condo
In a recent downtown Montreal condo, the client wanted to replace an aging central system while retaining the existing ducts.
Challenges encountered:
- Very limited mechanical space
- Restricted access
- Need for a quiet system
AirGreen Solution:
- Installation of a compatible central heat pump
- Integration of the SAMSUNG HYLEX 2 tons
- Airflow optimization
Result:
- Installation completed in one day
- Improved thermal comfort
- Reduced perceived noise
Common Mistakes to Avoid
When choosing an electric furnace:
- Not checking compatibility with the heat pump
- Underestimating the importance of airflow (CFM)
- Neglecting the available space for installation
- Ignoring the quality of electronic control
At AirGreen, every project includes a comprehensive analysis to avoid these mistakes.
