MIDEA28 Dual Zone Heat Pump | Compressor: 18,000 BTU | Montreal, Laval, South Shore and North Shore

Exemplary performance for two distinct zones

The MIDEA28 Dual Zone Heat Pump | Compressor: 18,000 BTU is a high-quality HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) solution to meet the comfort needs of two separate spaces. At AirGreen, we frequently see that many homeowners in Montreal , Laval , Longueuil , as well as on the North Shore and South Shore , are looking for systems that can offer precise temperature control while remaining energy efficient. This dual zone heat pump is a very attractive choice for several reasons: optimized performance, a reliable 18,000 BTU compressor, operation in difficult climatic conditions, and the possibility of expanding to a third zone if necessary.

Why choose the MIDEA28 DoubleZone Heat Pump

Several features set the MIDEA28 Dual Zone Heat Pump apart on the market. First and foremost, its 18,000 BTU compressor provides adequate heating and cooling capacity for most mid-sized homes or small businesses. Furthermore, this model supports up to two indoor units simultaneously, allowing two separate rooms or floors to be heated or cooled. Occupants in each zone can then adjust the temperature to their preferences, avoiding the energy waste that typically occurs when a single system manages an entire property.

At AirGreen, we have already installed this type of dual-zone heat pump in duplexes and multi-story homes located in Longueuil and on the North Shore . The results have demonstrated significant customer satisfaction in terms of comfort. In addition, homeowners have observed savings on their electricity bills, especially during periods of extreme cold.

Getting Started with the DoubleZone Feature

The MIDEA28 Heat Pump 's DualZone feature allows for connection to two separate indoor units (wall-mounted, ceiling-mounted, mini-ducted, etc.). The main advantage is the individual temperature management per zone. For example, if you have a lower floor that is used more during the day and an upper floor that is used mainly in the evening, you can distribute the temperature and heating/cooling power according to the actual occupancy of the space. This flexibility prevents sudden temperature increases and decreases in unused rooms, while helping to reduce overall energy consumption.

AirGreen Experience: Real Case Studies

1. Longueuil Project : A homeowner wanted to heat and cool both their ground floor and a finished basement. After analysis, we recommended the MIDEA28 DoubleZone Heat Pump | Compressor: 18,000 BTU . The main indoor unit was placed in the living room, while the second indoor unit was located in the basement. Residents reported savings of approximately 15% on their annual energy bill, as well as increased comfort thanks to independent control of both floors.

2. North Shore Installation : In a small business, we installed this dual-zone heat pump to heat and cool two adjoining offices, each with its own remote control and schedule. Employees greatly appreciated the ability to adjust the temperature to their individual preferences. The management team also sees it as an excellent long-term investment.

Energy savings and reliability

The MIDEA28 Dual Zone Heat Pump 's high efficiency comes in part from its variable-speed compressor, which modulates power according to actual needs. In heating mode, especially in very cold weather, the heat pump can maintain a stable performance level down to -30 °C , reducing dependence on a backup system. At the same time, the ENERGY STAR (Cold Climate) energy class and the excellent SEER2/HSPF2 rating translate into lower electricity bills.

We also emphasize durability: the equipment is built with robust, corrosion-resistant components and a fan motor optimized to minimize wear. AirGreen offers a complete HVAC maintenance and follow-up service, ensuring that your HVAC system remains efficient over the long term.

Design and installation: practical points

• Outdoor Unit Location : Thanks to its compact dimensions (37.25 x 16.13 x 31.88 in), it is easy to find a suitable location on the side or back of the house to limit space requirements and protect the unit from the elements.

• Pipe Distances and Lengths : With Midea technology, you have the flexibility to connect indoor and outdoor units over distances that suit different housing configurations.

• Optional Wi-Fi : Many customers appreciate the remote control. You can manage the temperature of each zone via a dedicated app.

• Easy maintenance : Accessibility to filters and internal components has been designed to facilitate HVAC maintenance and promote increased longevity.

Provincial Grant (LogisVert): $2,112

As of May 1, 2025, the LogisVert grant can reach $2,112 for this model, depending on the eligibility criteria in effect. AirGreen is available to guide you through the process and help you maximize possible financial assistance. Many customers in Montreal , Laval , and on the South and North Shores have taken advantage of these government programs to reduce the total cost of acquiring and installing their heat pump.

Possibility of expansion to a third zone

Although this is a dual-zone system at its core, the manufacturer's documentation indicates that it can be expanded to three zones (triple zone) depending on the indoor configuration and the desired total output. At AirGreen, we can assess whether the three-indoor unit option is suitable for your future needs. Furthermore, the 18,000 BTU compressor is powerful enough to support a third unit, provided Midea recommends sizing.

Concrete example: a triplex in Montreal

In a triplex located in Montreal , one of the owner-occupants preferred to plan for a possible third zone for a basement expansion. We planned the installation taking this eventuality into account. For the moment, only two indoor units are operational (on the ground floor and the first floor). However, the wiring and piping for a future additional unit are in place. Therefore, when the basement is finished, it will be enough to add the compatible indoor unit.

Points of attention for the end user

1. Regular Filtration : One of the most common issues our customers face is filter clogging. We recommend checking and cleaning the filter at least every two months to maintain optimal airflow.

2. Automatic defrost : In winter, the heat pump occasionally performs defrost cycles. These operating phases are normal and essential to prevent frost from forming on the outdoor heat exchanger.

3. Annual Maintenance : Our technicians recommend a thorough inspection every year to check the integrity of the components and ensure maximum performance.

4. Smart use of programming : Reducing the temperature in unoccupied areas or programming a specific schedule helps reduce energy consumption, especially at night or when you are away.
