A structural HVAC solution for complex buildings in Quebec

In Quebec, an HVAC system is never chosen solely based on a technical specification sheet. At AirGreen, we see every week that decisions are driven by very real constraints: existing buildings that are difficult to modernize, high comfort requirements for each zone, a desire to reduce operating costs, and above all, absolute reliability during periods of extreme cold. The FUJITSU AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF R32 | 48000 BTU - 5 Indoor Units precisely addresses these challenges.

This mini-VRF system is designed for projects where traditional multi-split solutions reach their limits: multi-unit dwellings, mixed-use buildings, commercial spaces, clinics, professional offices, or high-end residences. Thanks to its compact VRF architecture, it allows for the management of several independent zones while maintaining remarkable thermal stability, even in extreme weather conditions in Montreal , Laval , Longueuil , on the North Shore , or the South Shore .

Mini-VRF logic applied to real-world projects

Unlike a standard multi-zone system, the FUJITSU AIRSTAGE J-7S relies on dynamic refrigerant flow management. Each indoor unit receives precisely the required power, no more and no less, based on the actual demand of the zone it serves. This approach allows for:

• a significant reduction in temperature variations,

• improved heating stability

• a reduction in on/off cycles

• better controlled energy consumption.

In several projects completed by AirGreen in Longueuil and the Montérégie region , this technology solved a recurring problem: areas that were overheated and others that were underheated with the old system. After the J-7S was installed, occupants noticed much more consistent temperature uniformity, without frequent manual adjustments.

Heating performance: a non-negotiable criterion

Heating remains the most critical factor when choosing an HVAC system in Quebec. The FUJITSU AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF R32 is designed to operate stably down to -26°C , without unexpected safety shutdowns. This capability is based on several technical features integrated from the design stage:

• a basic heating system for the outdoor unit to prevent ice buildup,

• advanced thermal management of electronic components

• precise compressor regulation to maintain efficiency at low temperatures.

In practice, this translates into a truly usable heating capacity:

• 35,800 BTU at -8°C ,

• 41,500 BTU at -15°C ,

• and a high COP at low temperatures , which is directly reflected in electricity bills.

In installations carried out on the North Shore , particularly in buildings with average thermal envelope, the system has made it possible to limit the use of backup systems, even during prolonged periods of intense cold.

The R-32 refrigerant: a technical and strategic choice

The choice of R-32 is not solely motivated by environmental considerations. This refrigerant offers better heat transfer, allowing the system to achieve higher efficiency with a reduced charge. In the case of the J-7S, the amount of refrigerant required is significantly less than that of previous generations.

For multi-residential and commercial buildings, this aspect has very concrete consequences:

• reduction of circulating refrigerant volumes,

• integration of leak detection sensors on ducted units,

• possibility of adding alarm and automatic shut-off systems.

In a recent project in Montreal , these devices were crucial in meeting the requirements of the owner and the insurer, while ensuring long-term peace of mind.

Installation flexibility that is rarely matched

One of the great strengths of the FUJITSU AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF R32 | 48000 BTU lies in its ability to adapt to complex configurations. The system accepts:

• very long total pipe lengths,

• significant height differences between units,

• reduced minimum clearances for the outdoor unit.

These features are particularly appreciated in existing buildings in Montreal , where piping routes often have to contend with old structures, low ceilings or cramped technical rooms.

We have installed this system on balconies, under windows or in confined spaces, without compromising performance or accessibility for HVAC maintenance.

A range of indoor units adapted to every use

The J-7S allows for the combination of different types of indoor units within the same system, offering a rare level of design freedom:

• wall units for residential spaces or individual offices,

• compact cassettes for standard ceilings in open spaces,

• Slim, ductless units for discreet and uniform integration,

• air handling units for larger volumes requiring high static pressure.

In a commercial project on the South Shore , AirGreen combined ducted units in administrative areas and compact cassettes in common areas, while maintaining independent control for each space. This approach optimized both comfort and aesthetics.

Energy efficiency and available subsidies

The FUJITSU AIRSTAGE J-7S meets high energy efficiency criteria and is eligible for current subsidy programs, including the provincial LogisVert subsidy , which can reach $4,296 depending on the configuration and project.

For many customers in Laval , Longueuil and Montérégie , this financial assistance has made a mini-VRF system more economically accessible than a traditional central solution, while offering lower long-term operating costs.

AirGreen feedback: what we learned

Through experience, we've found that the success of a mini-VRF project depends as much on the design as on the product itself. Among the mistakes we help our clients avoid are:

• under-dimensioning certain critical areas,

• neglecting the overall balance of the system,

• choosing indoor units that are unsuitable for the actual use of the spaces.

Every HVAC installation by AirGreen begins with a thorough needs analysis, followed by a custom design and rigorous commissioning. This approach ensures that the FUJITSU AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF R32 delivers its full potential, year after year.
