At AirGreen , we recommend the GREE CLIVIA R32 (black) 12,000 BTU wall-mounted heat pump to homeowners who want consistent comfort in all seasons, without compromising on aesthetics. Its anthracite gray finish blends into modern interiors, while its G20 Inverter platform and artificial intelligence algorithm continuously adapt performance to room volume , humidity , and lifestyle habits . The result: a consistent temperature, healthier air, and controlled consumption—from Montreal to Laval , from Longueuil to the North Shore and the South Shore .
Heating guaranteed down to –30°C : no more uncomfortable cold snaps in January.
High efficiency : SEER2 24.5 , HSPF2 9.5 , EER2 13.0 , COP > 3.8 at 8°C for 12k BTU (AHRI 216032436 ).
Library quiet : 20 to 43 dB(A) indoors — perfect for bedroom, living room or office.
Wi-Fi included (GREE+) : Plan, monitor and optimize from your phone.
R-32 refrigerant : reduced charge, better efficiency, reduced climate impact.
Anthracite aesthetics : the unit visually blends into the decor, without garish boxes.
AirGreen field rule (to be validated on site, as each home is unique):
Bedroom/closed office (12–20 m²) : 9,000 to 12,000 BTU, depending on insulation and windows.
Average living room (20–30 m²) : 12,000 BTU is often adequate, especially if the envelope is correct.
Open space : pay attention to volumes and air circulation; 15,000–18,000 BTU or multi-zone is often considered.
We analyze the surface area , ceiling height , solar orientation , windows , internal appliances (kitchen, lighting, IT) and air leaks . This approach avoids under-power (appliance that forces) as well as over-power (frequent stops/restarts, feeling of air that is too cold).
Continuous modulation limits temperature variations: no more "cold snap" after restarting. The AI algorithm learns your scenarios (presence, humidity, inertia of the home) and adjusts the flow rate , compressor speed and dehumidification cycle . You get dry but not dried-out air , and a constant temperature without unnecessary stress.
The CLIVIA offers a target humidity range . In summer in Longueuil or Boucherville , we often aim for 45–55% : less mold, textiles that keep their shape, more restful sleep. The device adapts the fan flow and the setpoint to purify the air while limiting consumption.
20 dB(A) at its lowest indoors: ideal for bedrooms .
Orientation of the shutters : we adjust the range of the breath to avoid direct flow on the face in the evening.
Positioning : aim for approximately 2.1–2.3 m height, free side and front clearance, and optimized air entanglement so that stratification (hot air at the ceiling) is minimal.
Cooling : from –29°C to +50°C (useful in spring/autumn when the house accumulates solar gain).
Heating : from –30°C to +30°C .
Copper coils / aluminum fins , blue fins treated for 500 hours with salt spray, composite drip tray - everything is designed to last, even on exposed facades.

Refrigerant : R-32 , charge approximately 0.8 kg
Certifications : ENERGY STAR & Cold Climate | AHRI 216032436
Location : We choose the location that provides the best air circulation without compromising aesthetics.
Line path : priority given to short, straight routes; if the route is long, we adjust the refrigerant charge according to best practice.
Condensate management : gravity drain preferred; pump when necessary, with anti-vibration and service loops for maintenance.
Clean wall crosspiece : calibrated drilling, sleeve , careful sealing , discreet trunking .
Anti-vibration pads under the condenser, oriented to avoid resonances on the balcony/terrace.
Tightening to the correct torque and refrigeration line installed without constraints or tight bends - this is key to silence and longevity .
Suitable circuit breaker , grounding , wiring in compliance.
Easily accessible external cut-off for maintenance.
Finish : moldings matching the facade.
Condo in Boucherville (650 sq ft, living room + office)
Objective: silence and remote control . Replacement of a window air conditioner. The CLIVIA 12 k drastically reduced the noise. During heat waves, dehumidification improved the feeling of freshness without excessively lowering the setpoint. GREE+ programming: comfort temperature at 5 p.m., eco at night.
Duplex in Villeray (ground floor, semi-open area)
Purpose: efficient additional heating to limit the use of baseboards. Optimized line layout (14 m) to maintain the gravity drain . Following winter: no draft felt, gentle modulation , and a comfortable maintenance around 21.5 °C during prolonged cold.
Plex in Laval (master bedroom)
Constraint: light sleep, need for almost inaudible ventilation. Fan setting at low level (≈ 20 dB(A)) , shutters oriented against the wall to diffuse without direct airflow. Testimony: better quality of sleep , more stable humidity in summer.
Every month during high season : rinse or vacuum the filters .
Annual : inspection of coils , drip tray , fans , seals ; electrical and functional check.
Exterior : clearing the condenser (plants, snow), checking the support and the pads .
Wi-Fi : Update the GREE+ app and adapt your schedule scenarios to the season.
Signs that should make you call AirGreen : decreased performance, unusual noises, droplets at the bottom of the wall, damp smell, error messages, short cycle times. Early intervention prevents breakdowns.
Instructions : for heating, aim for 21–22°C ; for cooling, 23–24°C with dehumidification .
Fan speed : Leave on Auto most of the time; set to Low at night in a bedroom.
Open doors : for semi-open areas, leave intermediate doors ajar to promote diffusion.
Sun : Close the blinds in the afternoon facing southwest during heat waves; you will reduce power demands.
Programs : Use the start/return slots to smooth the load and stabilize the humidity.
