SAMSUNG Premium FJM Heat Pump | 2-Zones | Ext: 36,000 BTU

A high-performance multi-zone HVAC solution designed for the Quebec climate

At AirGreen, we regularly install multi-zone systems in residences in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, on the North Shore and the South Shore, and the SAMSUNG Premium FJM 36,000 BTU heat pump stands out as a particularly strategic choice for homeowners seeking performance, flexibility, and energy efficiency.

This outdoor model (AJ036DXS4CG/AA) is designed to power 2 independent zones, while offering the possibility of expanding up to 4 zones maximum, making it an ideal solution for homes with multiple spaces to cool or heat differently.

Exceptional heating performance even at -25°C

One of the most important criteria for our customers in Quebec is winter performance. This heat pump is ENERGY STAR® Cold Climate certified, meaning it is designed to operate efficiently even in extreme conditions.

• Heating capacity down to -25°C
• Performance maintained at -15°C with 100% nominal capacity
• Power at -15°C: 34,600 BTU
• COP at -8°C: 11.813

In our installations in Laval and on the North Shore, we have observed that this model significantly reduces the use of electric baseboards, even during intense cold snaps.

Energy efficiency that translates into real savings

The SAMSUNG Premium FJM stands out for its advanced energy performance:

• SEER2: up to 20+ (depending on configuration)
• HSPF2: up to 10.5
• R-32 refrigerant with low environmental impact
• AI Energy mode via SmartThings, allowing up to 20% additional savings

In a recent project in Longueuil, a client replaced an old inefficient central system with this multi-zone heat pump. The result: a reduction of more than 30% on their winter energy bill, combined with improved comfort in the main rooms.

The real advantage: intelligent multi-zone control

Unlike a classic central system, this heat pump allows independent control of each zone:

• Warmer living room in winter
• Cooler bedrooms at night
• Basement adjusted according to occupancy

This zoning principle is particularly effective for reducing energy costs, as it avoids heating or cooling unused spaces.

At AirGreen, we recommend this type of system for:

• Multi-story houses
• Duplexes / triplexes
• Properties with an extension or recent addition
• Spaces with different thermal needs

Advanced technology for superior comfort

Variable speed inverter compressor

Inverter technology allows for precise power adjustment:

• Stable temperature
• Fewer on/off cycles
• Reduced noise and consumption

Silent operation

• Outdoor sound level: 53 dB(A)
• Indoor level: up to 22 dB(A)

We have installed this model in several residential areas of Montreal (Outremont, Plateau, Rosemont) where silence is an essential criterion — customer feedback is very positive.

SmartThings: intelligent control

Thanks to the SmartThings app:

• Remote control
• Consumption monitoring
• Intelligent automatic adjustments

This allows our customers to optimize their comfort even remotely, particularly in secondary residences on the South Shore.

Flexible installation adapted to your property

One of the major advantages of the FJM series is its installation flexibility:

Simplified connection

• Home-run system without complex branching
• Fewer energy losses
• Faster and cleaner installation

Compatibility with several types of indoor units

This heat pump can be combined with:

• Wall-mounted (high-wall)
• Ceiling cassette
• Console (radiator replacement)
• Ducts (Slim Duct or Air Handler)

This allows us, at AirGreen, to create tailor-made solutions for each residential configuration.

Key technical data to know

Here are the essential elements for an informed decision:

• Capacity: 36,000 BTU
• Voltage: 220V
• MCA: 36A
• MOP: 40A
• Maximum piping length: 230 feet
• Max vertical separation: 49 feet
• Compressor: Twin BLDC Rotary Inverter

These specifications are particularly important in complex projects, such as multi-story homes or multiplexes in Montreal.

Concrete example of AirGreen installation

Project completed in Boucherville (South Shore)

• Property: 2-story single-family home
• Need: heat and cool the ground floor and upper floor independently
• Solution: FJM Premium 36,000 BTU with 2 wall-mounted units

Results:

• Stable comfort in all rooms
• Significant noise reduction compared to the old system
• LogisVert subsidy obtained: $2,472

Common mistakes to avoid

In our field experience, several mistakes often recur:

1. Incorrect BTU distribution per zone

Improper sizing leads to discomfort and overconsumption.

2. Choosing a system not adapted to the climate

Some non-"cold climate" models fail below -20°C.

3. Non-optimized installation

Excessive duct length or poor unit positioning.

At AirGreen, we correct these errors from the design phase.
