Quiet performance for comfort

At AirGreen , we have always believed that optimal comfort requires intelligent technology and impeccable installation. The MIDEA 1-Way Ceiling Cassette 12,000 BTU – R454B perfectly embodies this philosophy: a compact, elegant and discreet heat pump , which combines power, energy savings and modern aesthetics. Designed for small to medium-sized residential and commercial spaces, it stands out for its exceptional performance in cold climates , its installation flexibility , and its remarkable operating silence .


A design thought out for efficiency and comfort

Uniform and discreet air distribution

Thanks to its unidirectional air outlet panel , this ceiling cassette provides a soft and even distribution of air throughout the room. The airflow can be precisely adjusted, ensuring comfort without drafts, ideal for offices, living rooms, bedrooms or meeting rooms.
Its thin panel fits easily into suspended ceilings, preserving the beauty and discretion of the space.

GA Inverter Technology: Modulated Performance

Equipped with Midea's GA Inverter technology, the cassette continuously adjusts the compressor power according to the detected ambient temperature. Result:

  • Increased energy efficiency , with a SEER2 of 23.0 and a HSPF2 of 10.0 , Energy Star Cold Climate certified.

  • Power consumption reduced by up to 60% in ECO mode.

  • A stable temperature without sudden variations, for constant comfort.

Comfort in all seasons

Designed for the Quebec climate, this unit maintains a heating capacity down to -30°C , a crucial asset for winters in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, the North Shore and the South Shore .
The 8°C Heating mode allows you to maintain a minimum temperature in second homes or unoccupied chalets, avoiding any risk of frost.


A jewel of silent technology

Controlled noise level

With an indoor noise level of only 24 to 41 dB(A) , the MIDEA 1-Way Cassette operates almost silently. For comparison, that's barely more than a whisper.
The outdoor unit, meanwhile, boasts 56 dB(A) —a remarkable performance for a compact 12,000 BTU system.

“Silent Mode” and “Follow Me” function

Silent Mode automatically reduces fan speed for virtually inaudible operation at night.
The Follow Me function adjusts the temperature according to the position of the remote control, guaranteeing incomparable precision and personalized comfort.


A flexible and professional installation

Compact dimensions and simplified maintenance

  • Indoor unit : 50.31 × 13.19 × 8.98 in

  • Outdoor unit : 31.69 × 12.99 × 21.81 in
    These proportions allow for easy installation, even in tight ceilings or confined technical spaces.

The 2-way drainage system offers maximum flexibility: condensation can be drained on the left or right, simplifying installation on site.
Additionally, the built-in drain pump lifts water up to 29.5 inches, preventing backflow.

Compatibility and connectivity

  • Optional Wi-Fi : control via mobile app to manage temperature remotely.

  • Wired or wireless control : to suit residential and commercial preferences.

  • Optional 24V interface : ideal for integration into central management systems (BMS).

  • R-454B refrigerant gas , more environmentally friendly and compliant with the most recent environmental standards (A2L, low global warming potential).


A robust and durable unit

The MIDEA 1-Way Ceiling Cassette is based on a solid and safe design:

  • Flame-retardant electrical enclosure , reducing the risk of internal sparks.

  • Automatic frost protection , preventing ice from forming in the evaporator.

  • Self-cleaning (iClean) : the cassette collects condensation to eliminate dust and bacteria by heating to 56°C.

  • Automatic restart after power failure, with settings memorization.

  • Built-in shut-off valve to cut off the refrigerant if a leak is detected.
