Outdoor unit
One compressor for the whole house. It supplies up to 5 heads and modulates from 12,420 to 49,600 BTU/h depending on what the rooms call for (NEEP).
Base pan heater
A heater keeps the outdoor unit’s base pan free of ice below 1 °C and during defrost (NEEP).
Refrigerant lines
One pair of lines per head.
Indoor heads
One head per room, each with its own remote and temperature. The combination is chosen in the “Zones” menu.
Control
Each zone is set separately, also from your phone.
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.

Everything we have written about this system.
A multi-zone solution designed for the demanding buildings of the Montérégie region
In many residential and multi-unit projects in the Montérégie region , we encounter the same constraint: providing precise comfort in each zone without increasing the number of outdoor units or sacrificing winter heating performance. The LG Multi F MAX LGRED R32 heat pump – 4 heads – 36,000 BTU – perfectly addresses this need.
At AirGreen , we regularly install this system in multigenerational homes, renovated duplexes, large condos, and light commercial buildings in Montreal , Laval , Longueuil , and on the North and South Shores. This model is ideal when flexibility, reliability, and thermal stability are priorities.
Understanding the Multi F MAX LGRED architecture
One outdoor unit, several independent zones
The heart of the system is the LG KUMXA361A outdoor unit, designed to supply up to 4 active zones (expandable to up to 5 zones depending on the configuration). Each indoor unit operates independently: temperature, airflow, schedules, and modes can be adjusted room by room.
This approach allows for:
-
a fine-tuned management of comfort ,
-
a reduction in energy consumption compared to poorly zoned centralized systems,
-
discreet integration on facades and roofs.
R-32 refrigerant: technical and environmental choice
The system uses R-32 gas , known for:
-
a lower global warming potential than older refrigerants,
-
improved thermodynamic efficiency ,
-
optimal compatibility with current and future standards.
In AirGreen installations, this choice translates into better heating stability in cold weather and sustainable long-term efficiency.
Actual capabilities and behavior in the Quebec climate
Power suitable for harsh winters
With a nominal capacity of 36,000 BTU , this heat pump is designed to maintain comfort even when demand is high:
-
reliable operation down to -25°C
-
Available power of approximately 29,600 BTU at -8°C ,
-
enhanced capacity at very low temperatures thanks to LGRED technology.
In practice, we have installed it in several residences on the South Shore where it provides the main heating, without systematic recourse to a backup system.
Balanced cooling in summer
In air conditioning mode, multi-zone distribution helps prevent the temperature fluctuations common in large open spaces. Each indoor unit precisely modulates its airflow, improving comfort while reducing unnecessary compressor cycles.
Interior units: flexibility and architectural integration
Compatible with multiple LG formats
The Multi F MAX accepts various models of wall-mounted, ceiling-mounted, or ducted indoor units. In this 4-head configuration, we often prefer wall-mounted units for:
-
their quiet operation (approximately 29 to 38 dB(A) depending on the model),
-
their simplified maintenance ,
-
their discreet visual integration .
Each indoor unit has:
-
integrated Wi-Fi ,
-
precise control of the vertical and horizontal flaps,
-
of individual airflow management.
Installation: what the AirGreen experience changes in concrete terms
Controlled refrigerated distribution
The Multi F MAX system relies on refrigerant distribution via bypass modules . Their positioning is critical:
-
maximum pipe lengths respected,
-
Controlled elevation differences between units,
-
balance of thermal loads between zones.
These technical parameters directly influence the performance and longevity of the system.
Safe power supply
For this model:
-
Voltage : 220 V,
-
MCA : 33 A,
-
MOP : 40 A.
At AirGreen, we always validate the capacity of the electrical panel before installation to avoid any overload or unforeseen modification after work.
Real-life example: quadruple zone on the South Shore
In a renovated duplex in Boucherville , the client wanted:
-
to maintain thermally independent rooms,
-
avoid multiple visible outdoor units
-
reduce long-term energy costs.
We installed an LG Multi F MAX 36,000 BTU – 4 heads , covering:
-
two bedrooms upstairs,
-
an open-plan living room,
-
a closed office in the basement.
Result :
-
Stable comfort in both winter and summer.
-
Significant reduction in outside noise.
-
access to the LogisVert grant of $3,552 applicable at the time of installation.

Warranty: 10 years on the compressor, 10 years on parts and 6 years on labor, straight from the distributor.
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: 29,600 BTU/h at −8 °C, 41,500 at −15 °C.
How many heads can I connect?
Up to 5 on this outdoor unit. This product is configured for 4 heads.
How much is the LogisVert grant?
$3,552 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 3621279. It also meets the ENERGY STAR Most Efficient criteria, according to the ENERGY STAR database.
Down to what temperature does it heat?
Down to −25 °C.
Is it noisy?
Indoors, the reference head goes down to 29 dB(A). Outdoors, 55 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.
A multi-zone system is planned room by room. At your home.
We measure every room, draw the line route and choose the right head for each zone. The on-site estimate is free and the quote arrives within 24 h.
