Why this HITACHI “airHome Multi” has become our sure value in residential HVAC in Montreal , Laval , Longueuil , North Shore and South Shore
At AirGreen, we recommend the HITACHI airHome Multi 2-Head Wall-Mounted Heat Pump ( RAM-G36N4HAA outdoor compressor, 36,000 BTU) to those who want to cool and heat two zones with a single compressor, while maintaining independent room-by-room control. The multi-split system allows you to adjust the temperature, fan speed, and schedules of each indoor head independently; you can turn off one zone and keep the other running to save money. It's a flexible, high-performance configuration, and particularly suitable for open-concept plans + bedroom, duplexes with a living area + mezzanine, or dual-aspect condos.
What You Actually Get (and Why It Matters in Winter as Well as Summer)
Performance and operating range
-
Reliable heating down to -20°C : the airHome Multi range maintains continuous heating in cold weather—a major asset for our Montreal winters.
-
Seasonal Efficiency : SEER2 up to 23.0 for cooling and HSPF2 up to 9.3 (Region 4), signatures of an energy-efficient system that reduces consumption year-round.
-
R-32 refrigerant : more efficient, with reduced charges and better overall performance.
-
Outdoor noise level : approximately 56 dB(A) for the G36 group — discreet in an urban courtyard.
These characteristics from the technical sheet ensure stable comfort and controlled costs in the Quebec climate.
Indoor air quality and cleanliness of exchangers
-
FrostWash : exclusive “freeze-thaw-dry” cycle that sanitizes the battery and maintains airflow over time.
-
Mold Guard : Automatic drying of internal components after cool/dry modes to limit odors and mold.
-
PM2.5 & ViroSense S filters : retain fine particles and inhibit biological agents — useful for sensitive families and homes along roads.
Intelligence and security
-
Motion detection ( Smart Eco / Auto-Off ): automatic lowering or stopping of the head when the room is empty.
-
R-32 refrigerant leak sensor integrated on indoor units: visual/audible alert in case of anomaly.
-
Remote control via airCloud Go ( SPX-WFA01 Wi-Fi adapter, optional) to program, monitor consumption and optimize your time slots.
Interior head configurations (mix & match, 2 zones today, upgradeable later)
With the RAM-G36N4HAA , you can choose your two heads and keep the possibility of evolving to more zones if your project grows. Common combinations for 2 rooms: 7 + 9 , 9 + 12 , 12 + 18 , 9 + 18 , 12 + 24 , etc. Formats:
-
airHome 400 or 650 wall-mounted units (7k to 24k BTU): quick installation, discreet design, low noise level (up to 27–29 dB(A) depending on model), motion sensor available on 650.
-
22" x 22" Mini-Cassette (7k to 20.5k BTU): 4-way for even distribution — perfect for open areas.
-
Ducted (7k to 24k BTU): Total invisibility for projects with discreet grilles.
-
Floor Console (7k to 18k BTU): ideal as a replacement for an old window unit.
We adjust each head ( RAK-DJ/GJ… , RAI-GJ… , RAD-GJ… , RAF-FJ… ) to the actual thermal load of your rooms (surface, glazing, orientation, infiltration).
Key Specifications — RAM-G36N4HAA Outdoor Compressor
-
Type : multi-split, 2 zones (expandable up to 4 depending on the range).
-
Power supply : 208–230 V / 1 Ph / 60 Hz .
-
Operating range : cold 14 to 115°F (−10 to +46°C); hot −4 to 75°F (−20 to +24°C).
-
Refrigeration network : R-32 , generous permissible lengths for complex routes.
-
External dimensions (W×D×H): approx. 33.5" × 11.7" × 31.5" .
This data ensures reliable design in real buildings: longer conduits, slopes, and flat roof installations typical of Montreal's residential stock.
Case Study — Renovated Duplex in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie (Montreal)
Context : owner occupying a duplex, open-plan ground floor (living room-kitchen ~38 m²) + master bedroom (~14 m²). Need: efficient cooling in summer and mid-season heating supplement without starting the boiler.
AirGreen Design :
-
18k BTU head for the open area (airHome 650 wall-mounted, occupancy sensor), 9k BTU head for the bedroom (airHome 400, silent night mode).
-
Optimization of refrigeration line lengths, roof clearances respected, condensate evacuation via hidden column.
-
Programming : automatic lowering during the day (living room head), gentle maintenance at night (bedroom head).
Result : drop in summer electricity consumption vs. old window air conditioners and consistent comfort without drafts. In winter, the heat pump covers the off-season; in very cold weather, the boiler takes over. The user controls everything remotely via airCloud Go .
What to know before buying (mistakes to avoid)
-
Undersize the main head of an open area of more than 30 m²: for heating, a 9 k may be sufficient in summer, but be too low at -10 °C. We always validate the thermal load .
-
Split 50/50 “by instinct” : it is better to increase the head of the open area and keep a smaller head for the sleeping area.
-
Forget about exterior acoustic discretion : even if the G36 displays around 56 dB(A), the location (rear wall vs. interior courtyard) changes the sound perception .
-
Neglecting condensate drainage on high/roof installations: slope, access hatch and service point must be planned from the submission.
-
Skip connectivity : The airCloud Go Wi-Fi option really helps reduce the bill by controlling ranges and temperatures.

What size for 2 typical areas?
-
Open area 28–45 m² + bedroom 10–16 m² → 18 k + 9 k most often.
-
Large, very glazed living room + closed office → 24 k + 9 k .
-
Two isolated rooms → 9 k + 9 k , if the boiler covers the main heating.
Each combination is validated after visit: orientation, glazing, air infiltration, floor, solar gain, and use (teleworking, animal presence, etc.).
