With its 24,000 BTU output and multi-zone connectivity, this model allows you to create a consistent atmosphere in three separate spaces: bedrooms, living room, or home office, for example. Compatible indoor units include wall-mounted models ranging from 7,000 BTU to 18,000 BTU (ASUH07KPAS, ASUH09KPAS, ASUH12KPAS, and ASUH18KPAS). In an average-sized property on the South Shore , it is common to install two 7,000 BTU units for the bedrooms and one 9,000 BTU unit for the open areas. This flexibility is highly appreciated by homeowners looking to maximize their comfort while saving energy.
Reliability and innovation
The integrated INVERTER compressor offers continuously modulated operation. Instead of starting and stopping at full speed, the heat pump adjusts its speed according to actual demand. This principle ensures better equipment durability, low temperature fluctuations and, consequently, substantial energy savings. In addition, the FUJITSU Aquila R32 | 24,000 BTU 3-Zone heat pump features a Blue Fin coated heat exchanger to reduce the risk of corrosion and extend the system's lifespan.
Noise and sound comfort
Thermal comfort is not enough if the equipment is too noisy. With an outdoor noise level of around 50 to 52 dB(A), the unit meets neighborhood standards and blends harmoniously into a dense urban environment like Montreal . The indoor wall-mounted units are also designed to operate quietly, ensuring occupant well-being, even in small spaces.
Case studies and concrete experiences
Residence in Laval
We recently installed the FUJITSU Aquila R32 3-Zone heat pump in a single-story house in Laval , where the owner was looking for a uniform solution to heat and cool three rooms: two bedrooms and a living room. Thanks to the flexibility offered by this system, he was able to:
-
Maintain a stable temperature in each room
-
Reduce your energy bill by around 20% compared to your old system
-
Program air conditioning independently for each zone, thus avoiding energy waste
After a year of use, the customer highlighted the increased comfort and the elimination of cold spots, often problematic during the Quebec winter.
Condo in Longueuil
A two-bedroom condominium in Longueuil also benefited from our personalized approach. The occupant wanted a quiet, compact, and eco-friendly system. By opting for the FUJITSU Aquila R32 | 24,000 BTU 3-Zone heat pump , they were able to:
-
Easily adjust the temperature of the master bedroom without disturbing sleep
-
Use the dehumidification function for greater comfort during summer heatwaves
-
Enjoy quiet operation, meeting the strict requirements of the co-ownership
After six months, he noted his great satisfaction with the temperature stability, even during the heatwaves in July.
Commercial offices on the North Shore
Our AirGreen team also performs HVAC installations for small offices. In an administrative office on the North Shore , a multi-zone heat pump was chosen to evenly distribute air conditioning across three areas: the executive office, the meeting room, and the shared workspace. Employees immediately noticed the difference in comfort. Even during heat waves, the temperature remained consistent, which helped improve productivity.
Installation procedure and precautions
Initial assessment
At AirGreen, we always begin with a thorough assessment of the building's energy needs and layout. The building's surface area, insulation, room orientation, and any potential constraints (load-bearing walls, outdoor access, etc.) are analyzed to suggest the most suitable configuration.
Preparing the installation area
Once the assessment is complete, our technicians plan the copper piping, install wall brackets, and determine the ideal location for the outdoor unit. The fact that this model can accommodate conduit lengths of up to 50 meters makes installation much easier, especially when the indoor units are located on different floors.
Connection and commissioning
After installing the indoor and outdoor units, our team will make the electrical connections in accordance with current safety standards (RBQ # 5645-9605-01). Since R-32 refrigerant is more environmentally friendly, we take care to handle the cylinders and purge the circuit carefully. Commissioning includes several essential checks:
-
Checking the tightness of the ducts
-
Checking the refrigerant gas pressure
-
Heating and air conditioning mode operating test
We also take the time to configure wall thermostats and explain to customers the various integrated functions (eco mode, time programming, etc.).
Monitoring and maintenance
To extend the life of your FUJITSU Aquila R32 | 24,000 BTU 3-Zone Heat Pump , it is recommended that you perform a complete HVAC maintenance at least once a year. Our team offers preventative inspections including:
-
Cleaning filters and exchangers
-
Checking the refrigerant pressure
-
Detection of leaks or performance anomalies
-
Calibration of remote controls and verification of electrical components
Our customer feedback demonstrates improved energy efficiency and longer lifespan when a regular maintenance program is implemented.

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: 15,600 BTU/h at −8 °C, 19,200 at −15 °C.
How many heads can I connect?
Up to 3 on this outdoor unit. This product is configured for 3 heads.
Can I mix head sizes?
Yes. The “Zones” menu offers 10 combinations, from 7+7+7 to 9+9+12 (in thousands of BTU). Each head is sized for its room.
How much is the LogisVert grant?
$1,872 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 3627392. It also meets the ENERGY STAR Most Efficient criteria, according to the ENERGY STAR database.
Down to what temperature does it heat?
Down to −15 °C.
Is it noisy?
Indoors, the reference head goes down to 19 dB(A). Outdoors, 52 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 12 years on the compressor and 12 years on parts; labour is not included by the manufacturer. AirGreen extended warranty: possible.
A multi-zone system is planned room by room. At your home.
