Technical characteristics and energy benefits

Choosing a heat pump is not something you can do on the spur of the moment. As HVAC installation experts, we know how important it is to select a model that precisely meets your heating and cooling needs. Here are some key points that set the FUJITSU Aquila R32 QuadZone heat pump apart:

• 36,000 BTU Capacity : Perfect for covering multiple rooms or even separate areas within the same building.

• Four independent zones : Up to four indoor units can be connected (compatible models ASUH07KPAS, ASUH09KPAS, ASUH12KPAS, ASUH18KPAS, or ASUH24KPAS). Each zone has its own settings, ensuring personalized comfort in every room.

• R-32 Refrigerant Gas : This more environmentally friendly fluid has a lower Global Warming Potential than R-410A and promotes better energy efficiency.

• SEER2: 22.0 , HSPF2: 10.0 and EER2: 12.0 : These indices reflect excellent energy performance, both in air conditioning and heating mode.

• Extended operating range : Designed to heat efficiently down to -15°C outdoors, a feature that is much appreciated in our Quebec winters.

• Inverter Technology : The compressor operates in a modulating manner, which reduces energy consumption while maintaining a stable comfort level.

• Low noise level : Measured at only 56 dB(A) outside, which limits noise pollution for you and your neighbors.

• Compact Size and Robust Design : Measuring approximately 32 inches wide by 12 inches deep and 34 inches high, the outdoor unit fits easily into various environments. The “Blue Fin” coating on the heat exchanger protects against corrosion.

With these features, the QuadZone heat pump offers unparalleled flexibility to meet the requirements of different building types. Whether you own a large condo with three bedrooms and a separate living room or you run a commercial space with multiple offices, you can easily regulate the temperature of each space according to the specific needs of its occupants.

Concrete example: a successful installation in Longueuil

We recently had the opportunity to install a FUJITSU Aquila R32 QuadZone heat pump in a duplex in Longueuil. The owner wanted to heat and cool two apartments: each with two bedrooms and a living room. Thanks to the four available zones, we were able to install two indoor units in the first apartment (one in the living room and one in the master bedroom) and two more in the second apartment. The result:

1. Personalized comfort : Each tenant adjusts the temperature according to their preferences.

2. Reduced energy bill : Inverter technology optimizes energy consumption by continuously adjusting the power required.

3. Simplified space management : The compact outdoor unit is discreetly placed on the side of the house, without obstructing traffic flow.

In addition, the owner highlighted the satisfaction of his tenants, who benefit from a stable indoor climate, summer and winter, while enjoying better air quality thanks to the integrated ventilation.

Points of attention before installation

Although the FUJITSU Aquila R32 QuadZone heat pump offers many advantages, we always recommend taking certain precautions into account:

• Accurate sizing : Calculating the actual heat load of your building is essential. Our technicians systematically conduct an on-site visit to analyze the surface area, insulation, room layout, and the ideal location of the outdoor unit.

• Refrigerant Line Length : This model can go up to 230 feet (70 m) of total piping, but it is important to plan the piping route to avoid unnecessary pressure drops.

• Insulation quality : If your building is poorly insulated, even the best heat pump will struggle to maintain a comfortable temperature. In some cases, we suggest upgrading the insulation before or during installation.

• Ambient Noise : Although this unit is relatively quiet, it is best to place the outdoor unit in a suitable space, away from possible obstacles and away from the main living areas.

• Regular HVAC Maintenance : To preserve the lifespan of your heat pump, it is crucial to perform annual inspections, clean the internal filters and check the refrigerant pressure.

We've seen homeowners neglect their equipment maintenance, resulting in decreased performance and higher energy bills. At AirGreen, we offer a variety of tailored HVAC maintenance packages to keep your system operating at peak performance.

Another example of successful intervention

In an office building in Laval , a landlord wanted to centralize the air conditioning and heating system for four separate spaces: an open space, two closed offices, and a conference room. After analysis, we recommended installing a 36,000 BTU FUJITSU Aquila R32 QuadZone heat pump . Each indoor zone is now independently controlled, allowing the conference room to remain cool during meetings, while the offices are heated to a slightly different temperature based on occupant preferences. The return on investment was rapid due to better comfort distribution and lower energy costs, especially during the winter.

FUJITSU Warranty and Reliability

For those who prefer, we offer an extended warranty (10-10-10) that also includes labor. Our customers appreciate this coverage because it ensures prompt assistance in the event of a problem, without any additional unexpected costs.

In addition, FUJITSU incorporates several safety features into its system: compressor protection, surge protection, and current limiting function. These features significantly reduce the risk of breakdowns and extend the life of the device.

Answers to your frequently asked questions

• Is the heat pump suitable for Quebec’s harsh winters?
  Yes. Thanks to its heating capacity down to -15°C, it provides stable heating throughout most of the Quebec winter. During periods of extreme cold, a backup system may be considered, depending on your building's configuration.

• What are the operating costs?
  Inverter systems are renowned for their energy efficiency. Of course, electricity bills vary depending on usage, the area to be heated/cooled, and the building's insulation. Overall, however, our customers see a significant reduction in their costs compared to other, less efficient systems.

• How long does the installation take?
  A standard installation, including the placement of the outdoor unit and indoor units, can generally be completed in one or two days, depending on the complexity of the project. In more complex cases (long refrigeration lines, difficult access to certain rooms), a slightly longer time frame is required.

• What about HVAC maintenance?
  We recommend minimal annual maintenance. This includes cleaning the filters and a general system inspection. At AirGreen, we offer various maintenance plans to help you maintain optimal operation.
