Ten indoor units for a single floor, one \u003cstrong\u003eAOUK048SSAN7\u003c\/strong\u003e outdoor unit to supply them: that is the configuration of this GENERAL AIRSTAGE J-7S VRF 48,000 BTU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTechnically, there is nothing to choose between it and the Fujitsu AIRSTAGE version: same outdoor unit, same 10 indoor units, same factories. The manufacturer, known until the end of 2025 as Fujitsu General Limited, has been GENERAL Inc. since January 1, 2026; it publishes a single brochure for both brands and keeps the same warranty, 12 years for the compressor, as many for parts, and 6 years for labour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a building manager or a commercial tenant, the comfort of each office is not enough. You also need to manage the floor from one place and hand the maintenance to one company. The package proposed here meets those three needs: multi-position air handlers and cassettes inside, a \u003cstrong\u003ecentral controller\u003c\/strong\u003e at reception, and AirGreen for the maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGENERAL or Fujitsu AIRSTAGE: the same machine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePaloma Rheem Holdings, which has overseen Rheem since 1988, became the owner of Fujitsu General in August 2025. From January 1, 2026, the company changed its corporate name to GENERAL Inc. without leaving Kawasaki, Japan, where its head office and R\u0026amp;D centre remain, and without touching the factories. AIRSTAGE products, their model numbers and the warranty program came through the change intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince February 2026, Rheem Canada has been the one selling these units in Canada, and Groupe Master still supplies AirGreen. The Fujitsu brand is being withdrawn in stages, so the same unit can carry either name for a while. For the buyer who has to justify the choice to management, the two pages side by side show clearly that it is the same equipment, and our team, which holds AIRSTAGE Elite Plus installer status, installs one as readily as the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable class=\"tp-compare\" style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth

Per the brochure, heating holds down to −26 °C, with no low-temperature lockout, and the published tests for this system give 35,800 BTU at −8 °C and 41,500 BTU at −15 °C, with a COP of 2.1 measured at −15 °C; these are different test points, to be taken as they are. In summer, when sun on the windows and the computers push the heat up, cooling remains dependable up to 50 °C outdoors. The outdoor unit, at 37 × 12-5\/8 × 39-5\/16 in., offers 0.12 in. WC of static pressure and a built-in base pan heater; it sits on a pad or a bracket, with reduced minimum clearances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe refrigerant piping for a full floor can extend over 120 m in total, an increase of 50% over the previous generation. As for the fluid, it is low-GWP R-32, with the charge capped at 6 kg (13.2 lb) for the whole circuit. On top of the air handlers' built-in sensors, two kits can be added on request: the first detects gas and sets off an audible and visual alarm, the second isolates the refrigerant with a shut-off valve that has its own backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe outdoor unit carries AHRI number 216372783 on Hydro-Québec's list, and the system is listed by ENERGY STAR as a cold climate unit, ID 3813053. The LogisVert list of October 27, 2026 mentions it too, with a $4,296 grant; whether office premises qualify remains to be confirmed, which we check with you under the program's rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the visit, we survey the partitions, the height of the grid ceiling, the existing ductwork and the possible location of the outdoor unit. That survey sets the type and capacity of each of the ten indoor units, without exceeding what the 48,000 BTU outdoor unit can supply. This system suits accounting firms, engineering firms, agencies and tenants of a full floor. If the floor expands, the AOUK048SSAN7 accepts up to 12 indoor units, as long as total capacity allows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOfficial brochures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's brochures are available as PDF files:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_FR_anciennement_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in French (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1694\/6724\/files\/GENERAL_AIRSTAGE_J-7S_MINI-VRF_AOUK024-048SSAN7_BROCHURE_EN_formerly_Fujitsu_AirGreen.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBrochure in English (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOffices in the Souvenir area (Laval): ask for your quote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAirGreen serves the Souvenir area and all of Laval, as well as Montreal, Longueuil, the North Shore and the South Shore.
