A wall-mounted heat pump designed for Quebec winters… without compromising on comfort
At AirGreen, we install the FUJITSU ALTAIR 700 KMAS R32 – 9,000 BTU wall-mounted heat pump in condos, plexes, and houses throughout Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, and on the North and South Shores . This model has quickly become a benchmark for homeowners seeking an ultra-quiet, highly energy-efficient solution that is effective down to -15°C and eligible for provincial grant programs.
With a SEER2 of 30.0 and an HSPF2 of 12.6 , the Altair 700 ranks among the most efficient systems in its class. For a small apartment, a condo, or a room of modest to medium size, it's an excellent choice for reducing heating costs , improving year-round comfort, and minimizing the environmental impact of your heating and cooling system.
We particularly recommend this model to homeowners who want to take the next step: moving from a simple window air conditioner or an old heat pump to a truly modern four-season comfort system , capable of working hard in the middle of winter as well as in the middle of a heat wave.
Why choose the FUJITSU ALTAIR 700 9000 BTU for your project?
A model designed for our winters down to -15°C, without a safety lock
Quebec's climate is demanding: alternating periods of biting cold, thaws, freezing rain, strong winds, and periods of humid heat in the summer. The Altair 700 series was designed precisely for these conditions. Where many standard heat pumps shut down as soon as the temperature drops, the FUJITSU ALTAIR 700 is capable of maintaining good heating capacity down to -15°C , without locking out at the slightest cold snap.
In practice, this means:
-
A nominal heating capacity of 12,000 BTU for this model and 9,000 BTU for cooling, which allows it to cover a main room, a small dwelling or a well-insulated floor.
-
A heating operating range covering most of the winter in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil and the northern and southern suburbs.
-
A capacity to provide extra heating when the system detects a greater need, for example after a long absence or a sudden drop in temperature.
For many of our customers, this translates into less reliance on supplementary electric heating (baseboards, convectors, radiant heaters), and therefore better-controlled electricity bills.
One of the highest energy efficiency ratings on the market
One of the major strengths of this wall-mounted heat pump is its energy efficiency, both in air conditioning and heating:
-
SEER2: 30.0 – an excellent efficiency rating in air conditioning mode, ideal for dealing with episodes of heavy heat in Montreal or on the South Shore.
-
HSPF2: 12.6 – a very good seasonal heating efficiency rating, guaranteeing reduced consumption to maintain a comfortable temperature.
-
A high COP in heating mode, which illustrates the device's ability to provide several kilowatts of heat for every kilowatt of electricity consumed.
For a homeowner, these figures translate concretely into:
-
Significant annual savings on your Hydro-Québec bill, especially if you previously heated solely with electricity.
-
A more pleasant temperature stability , with fewer sudden variations.
-
A system that remains efficient even when operating continuously for long hours during cold periods.
In several residential projects in Montreal, Laval and Longueuil, clients who replaced their old wall-mounted air conditioner or a previous generation heat pump told us about reductions of 20 to 30% in their heating and cooling consumption , while also experiencing a clear improvement in comfort.
R-32 refrigerant: a more responsible and modern choice
The Fujitsu Altair 700 uses R-32 refrigerant , which is now the standard for many environmentally conscious manufacturers. Compared to R-410A, R-32 offers the following advantages:
-
A lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) , making it a more environmentally friendly choice.
-
A reduced quantity of fluid to obtain the same power, thus optimizing the design of the refrigeration circuit.
-
High performance with very good thermodynamic stability.
For homeowners who wish to align their choice of wall-mounted heat pump with an energy transition approach (energy-efficient renovations, adding a more efficient water heater, insulation work), this model fits perfectly into an overall project aimed at reducing the carbon footprint of the home.
Quiet comfort and discreet design for condos, plexes and houses
An ultra-low indoor noise level: only 19 dB(A)
Comfort isn't just about temperature; it's also about noise level . In a bedroom, home office, or open-plan living room, the noise of an appliance can quickly become irritating. With the FUJITSU ALTAIR 700 9000 BTU , the minimum noise level inside drops to 19 dB(A) , which is comparable to a whisper in a quiet room.
In concrete terms:
-
In low or silent mode , many of our customers tell us that they "almost forget the heat pump is running".
-
For children's rooms, babies, and people working remotely, this is a major advantage: no need to choose between thermal comfort and tranquility.
-
The outdoor unit also has a reduced noise level, which limits the risk of conflict with neighbors in dense areas of Montreal or Laval.
For example, we installed this model in:
-
A condo in Griffintown where the living room, kitchen, and office were open-plan: the client wanted to be able to hold video conferences without background noise. Mission accomplished.
-
A plex in Verdun where the bedrooms overlooked the courtyard: the low noise level of the outdoor unit was crucial in respecting the peace and quiet of the neighbors.
Compact, aesthetically pleasing and easy-to-integrate indoor unit
With its discreet design and compact dimensions , the indoor unit blends quickly into most decors:
-
It can easily be placed above a patio door, a TV stand, a sideboard or in a hallway.
-
The shape is clean, with simple lines, which adapts well to both a modern decor and a more classic style.
-
The blower flap offers a good range, allowing the air to be distributed efficiently throughout the room, provided the location is well thought out.
During our on-site assessments, we always analyze:
-
The room layout.
-
Structural constraints (load-bearing walls, available exterior walls, presence of windows).
-
The desired air circulation (adjacent rooms to be served, open staircases, mezzanines).
This allows us to suggest the optimal location for the wall-mounted heat pump to maximize comfort with a single unit.
Inverter technology, advanced modes and intelligent control
High-performance inverter: stability and savings
Inverter technology is now essential on a quality heat pump. On the Altair 700, it allows for:
-
Gradual starts, which avoid large current spikes.
-
Continuous power adjustment to maintain a stable temperature .
-
A reduction in the number of on/off cycles, which increases the durability of the components.
As a result, the room no longer constantly switches between "too hot" and "too cold." The heat pump operates smoothly, and the perceived comfort is significantly more natural.
The various operating modes (Auto, Heating, Cooling, Dehumidification, Ventilation, Economy, Power, Minimum Heating, etc.) allow you to adapt the unit's behavior according to the season and your lifestyle. During the shoulder seasons, for example, many customers use Economy mode to reduce energy consumption while maintaining a comfortable level of comfort.
Wi-Fi and remote control
The FUJITSU ALTAIR 700 allows for Wi-Fi control integration, enabling the use of a mobile app to remotely manage the temperature. This opens up several practical possibilities:
-
Turn on the heating before you get home, when you leave the office.
-
Lower the temperature during the day or night, then raise it again at wake-up time.
-
Check that the heat pump is in Economy mode when you go on a trip.
For owners of a chalet or rental apartment, this type of control is particularly appreciated: it allows them to keep a remote eye on comfort and consumption.
Home automation compatibility and more advanced integrations
For certain more complex projects (small buildings, shops, offices), the Altair range also allows integration with centralized management systems . For example:
-
Integrating multiple units into a single, grouped control system.
-
Managing schedules, temperature guidelines and usage restrictions for different spaces.
AirGreen regularly supports projects where the wall-mounted heat pump is not just an isolated device, but an element of a building control system .
Installation: flexibility, refrigeration lines and adaptability
Pipe length and site configuration
The FUJITSU ALTAIR 700 9,000 BTU wall-mounted heat pump allows for sufficient refrigerant line lengths to adapt to most configurations found in Greater Montreal. This flexibility offers tangible advantages:
-
It is possible to place the outdoor unit in a discreet location (backyard, side of the house, flat roof), even if the indoor unit is located on the opposite side.
-
Facilitating installations in Montreal plexes , where access to the yard or roof must be optimized.
-
Improved aesthetic integration: fewer visible pipes on the facade thanks to well-designed pipe routing.
Standard 1/4 – 3/8 in piping allows the use of protective accessories (sheaths, boxes, aluminum covers), which we highly recommend to protect lines from weather, ice and impacts.
Examples of AirGreen installations in the field
-
Condo in Montreal North : replacement of an old wall-mounted air conditioner with the Altair 700. The outdoor unit was installed on a wall bracket with shock absorbers, and the lines were concealed in an attractive conduit. The client now enjoys a four-season system, eligible for the provincial subsidy, with a reduced electricity bill.
-
Townhouse in Laval : installation on the ground floor in an open-plan living space (living room, dining room, kitchen). The unit helps to cool the entire house in the summer and to cover a significant portion of the heating needs in the spring and fall.
-
Plex in Verdun : indoor unit positioned near the staircase leading to the upper floor; air circulates to the upper rooms, which reduces the demand on the electric baseboard heaters upstairs.
In each of these cases, our teams adapted the installation to the architectural constraints, the lifestyle of the occupants and the budget.
