This dual automatic control ensures uniform air distribution, preventing cold or overheated zones in the room.
Feedback: Real Installation in Laval
During a recent project in Laval, a client had an old heat pump that was inefficient below -15 °C. The result was:
- High electricity consumption
- Frequent use of auxiliary heating
- Discomfort in distant rooms
After the installation of the DirectAir Heat Xtreme Pro 18,000 BTU, the results were immediate:
- Reduction in energy bill by approximately 28%
- Constant comfort even at -25 °C
- Significantly improved air distribution thanks to automatic louvers
This type of transformation is typical when replacing a standard system with a heat pump adapted to the Canadian climate.
