A premium multi-zone solution perfectly suited to Quebec's climate
At AirGreen, we regularly install multi-zone HVAC systems in properties in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, on the North Shore and the South Shore, and the SAMSUNG Premium FJM 36,000 BTU Heat Pump is a high-performing solution for modern homes.
This AJ036DXS4CG/AA outdoor model is designed to serve up to 3 independent zones (expandable to 4), offering precise comfort control in several rooms without adding outdoor units.
Unlike traditional systems, this heat pump allows smart temperature management, a noticeable reduction in energy costs and exceptional installation flexibility.
Why this Samsung FJM heat pump is a strategic choice in Quebec
Heating performance down to -25 °C
One of the most critical points for customers in Montreal and the surrounding area is winter performance. This model offers:
- Efficient heating down to -25 °C, according to Samsung
- High performance maintained even at low temperatures
- Steady heat output thanks to the advanced inverter compressor
According to the technical data, the system can deliver significant heating capacity even at very low temperatures.
Listed on NEEP (AHRI 216372800, all ducted heads): at -8 °C, rated capacity of 20,600 BTU/h (COP 2.45) and up to 34,600 BTU/h at full output; at -15 °C, up to 34,600 BTU/h (COP 1.81); at -25 °C, up to 20,500 BTU/h (COP 1.91).
At AirGreen, we have installed this model in several duplexes, where customers saw a significant reduction in their use of electric heating.
High energy efficiency
This heat pump delivers:
- SEER2: 18.5 (AHRI 216372800, all ducted heads) to 21.5 (AHRI 216372792, all wall-mounted heads)
- HSPF2: 8.5 to 9.5
- ENERGY STAR® + Cold Climate certified
In practical terms, this means:
- Lower electricity consumption for both cooling AND heating
- Access to Hydro-Québec's LogisVert program: indicative LogisVert amount of $2,472 (AHRI 216372800, Hydro-Québec list of October 14, 2026). Only Hydro-Québec confirms the assistance granted.

What people ask us about multi-zone systems.
Can I heat one room and cool another at the same time?
No. On a multi-zone system like this one, every head works in the same mode, heating or cooling. Each room still keeps its own set temperature.
What happens when every room calls for heat?
They share the outdoor unit’s capacity: 20,600 BTU/h at −8 °C, 34,600 at −15 °C.
How many heads can I connect?
Up to 4 on this outdoor unit. This product is configured for 3 heads.
How much is the LogisVert grant?
$2,472 according to Hydro-Québec’s list of October 1, 2026. Indicative amount: only Hydro-Québec confirms the assistance granted. The grant never exceeds 100 % of the cost before taxes; apply within 9 months of installation.
Is it ENERGY STAR certified?
Yes, cold climate, ID 3891567. It also meets the ENERGY STAR Most Efficient criteria, according to the ENERGY STAR database.
Down to what temperature does it heat?
Down to −25 °C.
Is it noisy?
Indoors, the reference head goes down to 22 dB(A). Outdoors, 53 dB(A): we place the unit away from bedroom windows.
Why a multi-zone instead of several wall units?
One outdoor unit on the wall and one circuit. In return, the rooms share the capacity, and if the outdoor unit stops, every zone stops.
What does the warranty cover?
Samsung 12-12-6 warranty: 12 years on the compressor, 12 years on parts and 6 years on labour. AirGreen extended warranty: possible.
A multi-zone system is planned room by room. At your home.
We measure every room, draw the line route and choose the right head for each zone. The on-site estimate is free and the quote arrives within 24 h.
