A new generation central HVAC solution perfectly suited to Quebec's climate

At AirGreen, we regularly install central systems in single-family homes, duplexes, and apartment buildings in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, the North Shore, and the South Shore. The SAMSUNG Hylex Premium 4-ton (48000 BTU) central heat pump represents a concrete advancement for homeowners seeking a reliable, high-performance, and adaptable solution, without having to rebuild everything.

This model immediately stands out for its advanced inverter technology, compatibility with existing installations, and ENERGY STAR® (Cold Climate) certified energy efficiency. Concretely, this means stable performance even during Quebec's harsh winters, down to -25°C, while maintaining excellent indoor comfort.


Why the Hylex Premium is a game-changer in central HVAC installation

A heat pump designed for easy replacement of existing systems

One of the most frequent problems we encounter at AirGreen is the replacement of old central systems. Often, clients dread:

  • Heavy work
  • Complete piping replacement
  • Unexpected costs

The SAMSUNG Hylex Premium was designed precisely to avoid this.

According to technical documentation, it allows for the reuse of refrigeration lines, wiring, and even some existing configurations, thereby reducing installation time and cost.

Real-world installation example in Laval

We recently replaced an old central system in a house in Laval:

  • Old system: 18-year-old heat pump + furnace
  • Constraints: limited space, difficult-to-access piping
  • Solution: Hylex Premium installation with line reuse

Result:

  • Installation completed in 1 day instead of 2-3
  • Savings of several thousand dollars for the client
  • Immediately superior performance

Performance and efficiency: concrete figures

Capacity and power

  • 48,000 BTU (4 tons) – ideal for large areas
  • Heating capacity up to 64,000 BTU at peak
  • Stable operation down to -25°C

Energy efficiency

  • SEER2: up to 16.5
  • HSPF2: up to 8.5
  • Efficient low-temperature COP

This directly translates to:

  • Significant reduction in electricity costs
  • Improved thermal stability in the home
  • Fewer on/off cycles

Optimized airflow

With a flow rate of up to 2071 CFM, this system ensures uniform distribution throughout the house, even in complex configurations.


Inverter technology and smart comfort

Full power modulation

Unlike traditional (ON/OFF) systems, the Hylex Premium uses a dual-rotor BLDC inverter compressor.

This allows for:

  • Precise power adjustment
  • Constant indoor temperature
  • Reduction of uncomfortable variations

Smart control with SmartThings

The system includes advanced WiFi connectivity:

  • Remote control via app
  • Real-time error notifications
  • Energy consumption analysis

With a compatible Samsung thermostat, advanced functions are activated:

  • AI Comfort mode
  • Geolocation
  • Automatic consumption optimization

Simplified HVAC installation: a major advantage

Universal compatibility

The Hylex Premium can be installed with:

  • Air handler (AHU)
  • A-coil
  • Existing furnace (bi-energy mode)

It is also compatible with:

  • Standard 24VAC thermostats
  • Communicating Samsung controllers

Dual fuel system

Highly requested in Quebec, this system allows for:

  • Use of the heat pump most of the time
  • Activation of a secondary source (gas or electric) in very cold weather

Result:

  • Optimization of energy costs
  • Maximum comfort in winter

Important technical details for demanding homeowners

Dimensions and installation

  • Compact outdoor unit: facilitates installation in confined spaces
  • Outdoor sound level: approx. 55-57 dB(A)
  • Piping: 3/8 - 7/8
  • Maximum length: 164 feet

Safety and durability

  • Integrated R-454B leak detection
  • Overvoltage protection
  • Compressor base heating
  • Galvanized steel structure

Eco-friendly refrigerant

The system uses R-454B, a gas with low global warming potential (GWP), aligned with new environmental standards.


Case study: central system replacement in Longueuil

A client contacted us to replace an inefficient system:

Initial problems:

  • Insufficient heating in winter
  • Excessive noise
  • High bills

AirGreen Solution:

  • Installation of a 4-ton Hylex Premium
  • Addition of a compatible air handler
  • Optimization of the duct network

Result after installation:

  • Uniform comfort in all rooms
  • Consumption reduction of ~25%
  • Remarkable silence compared to the old system

Common mistakes to avoid with central heat pumps

1. Incorrect sizing

A unit that is too small or too large leads to:

  • Premature wear
  • Poor efficiency

At AirGreen, every project includes a precise calculation of thermal loads.

2. Inadequate installation

Even the best heat pump can perform poorly if:

  • Ducts are unbalanced
  • Vacuum drawing is not performed correctly
  • Settings are not optimized

We systematically apply:

  • Complete vacuum drawing
  • Pressure tests
  • Advanced configuration

3. Neglecting HVAC maintenance

Regular maintenance allows for:

  • Maintaining performance
  • Extending lifespan
  • Avoiding costly breakdowns
