SHARP FilterSweep Wall-Mounted Heat Pump | 12000 BTU | -30°C R32

A wall-mounted heat pump designed for Quebec's climate and the realities of homes in Montreal

The SHARP FilterSweep Wall-Mounted Heat Pump | 12000 BTU | -30°C R32 represents a significant advancement in residential wall-mounted heat pumps . At AirGreen , we have been installing HVAC systems in Montreal , Laval , Longueuil , and on the North and South Shores for years, and this model directly addresses the challenges we observe in the field: neglected filter maintenance, loss of energy efficiency, and inadequate winter performance.

With a heating capacity down to -30°C , R-32 refrigerant, ENERGY STAR® Cold Climate certification, and an exclusive Auto Filter Sweeping System , this unit is designed for Quebec winters and for owners who are looking for long-term reliability and stability.

The Auto Filter Sweeping system: a concrete solution to a common problem

Why filter maintenance is often neglected

During our service calls in Montreal and the Montérégie region , we frequently find that the filters in mini-split air conditioners are clogged. A clogged filter:

• Reduces airflow

• It forces the compressor to work harder

• Increases electricity consumption

• Reduces the lifespan of the system

In a duplex in Longueuil , we recently measured a performance loss of nearly 18% simply due to a lack of maintenance.

How does FilterSweep work?

The SHARP FilterSweep 12000 BTU incorporates an automatic filter sweeping system. Specifically:

• An internal mechanism automatically sweeps the filters every 24 hours of operation.

• The dust is collected in an integrated bin.

• The filter stays clean longer.

• The unit maintains its optimal seasonal performance.

According to the manufacturer's data, the system can accumulate dust equivalent to approximately one year of normal use before emptying the bin.

For condo owners in Laval or rental unit owners on the South Shore , this means less manual maintenance, fewer oversights, and more consistent efficiency.

Actual winter performance: heating down to -30°C

Capacity and power

This model offers:

• Cooling capacity: 12,000 BTU

• Maximum heating capacity at -8°C: 19,000 BTU

• Capacity at -15°C: 15,500 BTU

• Guaranteed operation down to -30°C

In a bungalow in Repentigny (North Shore) , we replaced an old R-410A system with this R-32 unit. Result: a noticeable reduction in defrost cycles and improved thermal stability in the 550 sq ft main living room.

Hot Gas Pipe System

The outdoor unit is equipped with a patented thermal management system that uses residual heat to prevent the compressor from freezing. Unlike standard systems that rely solely on electrical resistance, this approach:

• Reduces energy consumption

• Reduces defrosting time

• Maintains performance in extreme conditions

Energy efficiency and R-32 refrigerant

The transition to R-32 is a significant environmental benefit. This gas:

• It has a lower global warming potential than R-410A.

• Improves thermodynamic efficiency

• Enables superior performance at partial load

With its high seasonal indices (SEER2, HSPF2), this heat pump is eligible for provincial subsidy programs such as LogisVert (subject to updated criteria).

At AirGreen , we always analyze eligibility for subsidies before installation in order to optimize the return on investment for our clients in Montreal , Laval and Longueuil .

Smart comfort: Coanda Airflow, Multi Space and Spot Air

Coanda Airflow: Controlled Distribution

Coanda Airflow technology allows air to be projected up to approximately 50 feet. In cooling mode, the air is directed towards the ceiling to avoid direct drafts. In heating mode, the air is directed towards the floor.

In a triplex in Ahuntsic , this feature allowed for better thermal uniformity in an open area combining living room and dining room.

Multi Space

A single unit can distribute air to adjacent spaces when the layout allows. Ideal for:

• Open areas

• Lofts

• Houses with connected hallways

Spot Air

This feature allows you to target a specific area in the room via the remote control or mobile app. Ideal for a home office or reading nook.

Detailed technical data

• Interior model: AY-XP12DWU

• Exterior model: AE-X12DWU

• Voltage: 220V

• Piping: 1/4 – 3/8 in

• Indoor noise level: 23 to 44 dB(A)

• Outdoor noise level: 50 dB(A)

• Interior dimensions: 31.41 x 11.84 x 9.81 in

• Warranty: 10 years compressor, 10 years parts, labor optional

These features make it an excellent choice for condominiums in Montreal , single-family homes in Laval , or rental properties in Montérégie .

Professional HVAC installation: a determining factor

Even the best wall-mounted heat pump can lose efficiency if the installation is inadequate. At AirGreen , we:

• Let's size according to the actual thermal load

• Let's check the amperage (MOP 25A)

• Let's optimize the pipe length

• Let's ensure proper condensate drainage

• We strictly adhere to RBQ standards

We recently corrected an installation in Boucherville that was carried out without a thermal load calculation: oversizing, short cycles, and discomfort. After recalibration and replacement with the FilterSweep 12000 BTU model, thermal stability was restored.

Who is this heat pump intended for?

• Owners of condos ranging from 400 to 700 sq ft

• Main living rooms of single-family homes

• Rental properties seeking reliability and low maintenance

• Energy-conscious homeowners

It is particularly suited to the climate of Greater Montreal , including the North Shore and the South Shore , thanks to its extreme heating capacity.

Why choose AirGreen for your SHARP heat pump?

• Experienced refrigeration technicians

• $5,000,000 liability insurance

• Final clear submission before work begins

• Analysis of available subsidies

• Structured after-sales service

We don't just install: we ensure long-term performance.
