DRA5H55M1A

Outdoor unit

One compressor for the whole house. It supplies up to 5 heads and modulates from 20,000 to 45,000 BTU/h depending on what the rooms call for (NEEP).

03 · How it works

Turn rooms on and off. Watch the power being shared.

One outdoor unit supplies every head: when several rooms call at once, they share its capacity. Pick an outdoor temperature.

04 · My plan

Tell us your rooms. We tell you if this size is enough.

Pick the number of rooms and their size. The estimate targets a −15 °C day; it is a guide, the real calculation is done room by room at your home.

09 · LogisVert grant

A grant you can calculate, not guess.

34,800 BTU/h÷ 1,000 ×$120=$4,176

The capacity at −8 °C comes from Hydro-Québec’s list of October 1, 2026. $120 per 1,000 BTU/h is the rate for ENERGY STAR cold-climate heat pumps (guide v1.10).

Set for this system (AHRI 210568223). Another head combination (ducted, console) can change the AHRI number, and so the amount.
Cap: the grant never exceeds 100 % of the purchase and installation cost before taxes.
9 months after installation to apply; +5 % when two measures are in the same request.

Everything we have written about this system.

Garder le chauffage en place, et lui confier seulement les pointes

Une résidence de Varennes flanquée d'un atelier chauffé à part pose un problème de partage : l'atelier ne demande rien la nuit, la maison demande tout, et le télétravail a ajouté une pièce qui doit rester tempérée du matin au soir. Le chauffage existant fonctionne encore et n'a aucune raison de disparaître. La Thermopompe 3-Zones DURASTAR Sirius Heat | 55 000 BTU - R410A vient se poser par-dessus, avec trois têtes commandées séparément, et laisse à l'appoint le rôle qu'il tient déjà.

Ses cotes sont de 20,0 SEER2, 10,5 EER2 et 9,5 HSPF2. Le système est homologué ENERGY STAR avec la désignation climat froid sous l'ID ENERGY STAR 2410630, chauffe jusqu'à -30 °C et donne droit à une subvention LogisVert de 4 176 $.

Les deux points de mesure du certificat

Le certificat inscrit 34 800 BTU/h à -8 °C et 45 500 BTU/h à -15 °C. Les deux points sont mesurés séparément ; nous reprenons chacun tel qu'il est publié.

  • COP de 2,40 au point de -8 °C
  • COP de 1,80 au point de -15 °C
  • Limite de chauffage inscrite : -30 °C
  • Unité extérieure : 61 dB(A)

Ces chiffres sont ceux du certificat AHRI 210568223, tels que publiés par le NEEP. Le point de -15 °C, à 45 500 BTU/h, est celui que nous retenons pour décider de la part que la thermopompe assume sur une maison flanquée d'un bâtiment secondaire.

Ce que l'appoint existant continue de faire

En deçà de la limite inscrite de -30 °C, le chauffage en place reprend la main, et il garde aussi l'atelier, qui n'a pas à devenir une quatrième zone pour être tempéré. Cette division du travail évite de surdimensionner : plutôt que de couvrir la nuit la plus froide de la décennie avec la thermopompe seule, on lui confie les milliers d'heures ordinaires où son rendement est le meilleur.

La subvention LogisVert de 4 176 $

Le système est inscrit au programme LogisVert d'Hydro-Québec, avec 4 176 $ pour un propriétaire d'une habitation existante, selon la liste en vigueur à la date d'installation, et une aide bonifiée s'applique à certains immeubles à logements multiples. Nous validons l'admissibilité avant la signature et préparons les pièces exigées ; la page subvention thermopompes efficaces d'Hydro-Québec en donne les conditions.

Les lignes et le condensat, tête par tête

Trois parcours de lignes, pas un seul

Chaque tête est reliée au condenseur DRA5H55M1A par son propre jeu de lignes frigorifiques : trois parcours à dessiner, et un seul point de sortie commun sur la façade pour éviter d'en multiplier les traversées. Des lignes déjà en place ne se reprennent que si leur diamètre correspond à la tête retenue, nettoyage et essai d'étanchéité compris. Nos installations restent entièrement apparentes, sans travaux à l'intérieur des murs, avec un recouvrement de finition.

L'évacuation du condensat de chaque tête

Trois têtes produisent trois écoulements de condensat, et chacun doit aller quelque part. Là où la pente le permet, l'évacuation se fait par gravité jusqu'à l'extérieur ; dans une pièce en contrebas ou éloignée d'un mur périphérique, une pompe de relevage prend le relais. Sur une propriété où un atelier occupe une partie de la façade, le tracé de ces écoulements se décide en même temps que celui des lignes, pas après.

La répartition des capacités et le circuit dédié

Les trois zones puisent dans la même réserve : la pièce de travail, le salon et la chambre se dimensionnent ensemble, et fermer une zone n'interrompt pas les deux autres. Les ensembles intérieurs compatibles publiés par DuraStar comprennent DRAS12F1A, DRAM24F1A, DRAC24F1A et DRAD24F1A. L'alimentation est de 220 V, avec un MCA de 40 A et un disjoncteur de 60 A sur un circuit dédié, et le calcul de charge tient compte de l'atelier déjà raccordé.

AirGreen, et l'entretien des trois têtes

Entreprise familiale depuis plus de quinze ans, nous intervenons à Montréal, à Laval, à Longueuil, sur la Rive-Nord et sur la Rive-Sud, avec les licences RBQ en ventilation, en réfrigération et en électricité. L'évaluation à domicile est gratuite et rien ne se signe sur place. Les filtres des trois têtes se rincent aux deux semaines et l'entretien CVAC annuel reprend les serpentins, l'écoulement du condensat et les raccords électriques : notre service de nettoyage s'en charge sur demande.

Demandez votre estimation gratuite pour la Thermopompe 3-Zones DURASTAR Sirius Heat | 55 000 BTU - R410A. Nous fixons le partage avec votre chauffage existant, traçons les trois parcours de lignes et prévoyons l'évacuation du condensat de chaque tête.

18 · Questions

What people ask us about multi-zone systems.

Can I heat one room and cool another at the same time?

No. On a multi-zone system like this one, every head works in the same mode, heating or cooling. Each room still keeps its own set temperature.

What happens when every room calls for heat?

They share the outdoor unit’s capacity: 34,800 BTU/h at −8 °C, 45,500 at −15 °C.

How many heads can I connect?

Up to 5 on this outdoor unit. This product is configured for 3 heads.

How much is the LogisVert grant?

$4,176 according to Hydro-Québec’s list of October 1, 2026. The grant never exceeds 100 % of the cost before taxes; apply within 9 months of installation.

Is it ENERGY STAR certified?

Yes, cold climate, ID 2410630. It also meets the ENERGY STAR Most Efficient criteria, according to the ENERGY STAR database.

Down to what temperature does it heat?

Down to −30 °C.

Is it noisy?

Indoors, the reference head goes down to 36 dB(A). Outdoors, 61 dB(A): we place the unit away from bedroom windows.

Why a multi-zone instead of several wall units?

One outdoor unit on the wall and one circuit. In return, the rooms share the capacity, and if the outdoor unit stops, every zone stops.

What does the warranty cover?

Our sheet lists 10 years on the compressor and 10 years on parts. AirGreen extended warranty: possible.
