An intelligent multi-zone solution for precise comfort in every room
At AirGreen, we regularly install multi-zone systems in homes, condos, and multi-dwelling units in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, on the North Shore, and the South Shore. The DIRECT AIR DA25 (36000 BTU) 4-head heat pump represents a particularly effective solution for those who want to independently control several spaces while optimizing their energy consumption.
This model stands out for its ability to power up to 4 distinct zones, with reliable performance down to -25°C, which perfectly matches Quebec's climatic realities.
Why choose a multi-zone heat pump like the DIRECT AIR DA25?
Personalized comfort management
With a quad-zone system, each room equipped with an indoor unit can be controlled individually:
- Different temperature in each zone
- Reduced energy losses
- Perfect adaptation to living habits
In a recent project in Boucherville (South Shore), we installed this system in a multi-story house where:
- The basement required little heating
- The ground floor required stable comfort
- The upstairs bedrooms had varying needs
Result: a measured reduction in energy consumption of more than 25% compared to an old, poorly balanced central system.
Performance adapted to the Quebec climate
Efficient heating down to -25°C
The DA25 series is designed to operate in extreme conditions:
- Heating operational down to -25°C
- Heating capacity at -15°C: 25,200 BTU
- Power at -8°C: 26,800 BTU
According to the technical brochure, these systems offer an impressive operating range:
- Air conditioning: -25°C to 50°C
- Heating: -25°C to 30°C
Energy efficiency data
- SEER2: 23.9 (high-efficiency cooling)
- HSPF2: 19.5 (efficient heating)
- COP at -8°C: 11.83
These performances ensure excellent energy efficiency, even in winter.

Advanced technology and features
Smart comfort and automation
Indoor units include several useful features:
- Automatic restart
- Intelligent defrost
- 24-hour programmable timer
- Eco mode and turbo mode
- Integrated humidity sensor
- "Follow Me" function for precise adjustment
Optimized airflow control

This allows for uniform air distribution, essential to avoid cold or hot spots.
AirGreen actual installation: case study
Laval Project – Intergenerational home
We recently installed a DIRECT AIR DA25 4-zone heat pump in an intergenerational property:
Configuration:
- 1 x 18,000 BTU unit in the main living room
- 2 x 9,000 BTU units for the bedrooms
- 1 x 12,000 BTU unit in the basement
Challenges encountered:
- Significant piping length
- Balanced load distribution
According to the manufacturer's combination rules:
- Total indoor capacity must be between 66% and 133% of the outdoor unit
We adjusted the configuration to optimize real performance.
Result:
- Stable comfort in all zones
- Minimal noise (22.5 dB in some rooms)
- Satisfied client after a full winter
Subsidy and profitability
LogisVert Program
This heat pump is eligible for a provincial subsidy:
- Amount: $1340
Even if this model is not classified as "Cold Climate Energy Star," it remains highly efficient and cost-effective in a residential context.
Common mistakes to avoid
Incorrect sizing
A poorly calculated multi-zone system can lead to:
- Loss of heating performance

- Premature wear
At AirGreen, we always analyze:
- Actual surface area
- Insulation
- Orientation
- Occupancy habits
Non-optimized installation
Errors observed on some external projects:
- Poorly insulated piping
