A high-performance multi-zone solution designed for Quebec's climate
At AirGreen, we regularly install multi-zone systems in homes and multiplexes in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, North Shore, and South Shore, and the SAMSUNG Premium FJM 4-zone 30,000 BTU heat pump is among the most requested configurations when comfort needs to be intelligently distributed across several rooms.
This model stands out for its ability to power up to 4 independent zones, allowing precise temperature management in each space. In a real context, this means that a living room, two bedrooms, and an office can all operate with different settings, without compromising overall performance.
Why this heat pump is a strategic choice for multi-zone properties
Stable performance even in harsh winters
One of the most critical aspects in HVAC in Quebec is heating performance in cold weather. This unit is designed to maintain high capacity down to -25°C, with still very solid heating performance at -15°C.
According to the manufacturer's technical data, the system is capable of providing:
- A nominal heating capacity of 28,600 BTU
- Stable performance even in extreme conditions
In our installations in Laval and on the South Shore, we have observed that this type of system often drastically reduces the use of electric auxiliary heating.
Inverter Technology and advanced energy efficiency
This heat pump is equipped with a Twin BLDC Inverter compressor, which allows for:
- Continuous power modulation
- Significant reduction in on/off cycles
- Optimized energy consumption
The announced energy performance is particularly interesting:
- SEER2 up to 22.5
- HSPF2 up to 10
- EER2 up to 13.5
In a project carried out in Longueuil, a client replaced an old electric system with this FJM heat pump. The result: a measured reduction of nearly 32% on their annual heating and air conditioning bill.
R-32 Refrigerant: efficiency and reduced environmental impact
The system uses R-32 gas, known for:
- Its low Global Warming Potential (GWP)
- Better thermal efficiency
- Reduced refrigerant charge required
At AirGreen, we prioritize this type of technology in our recommendations, especially for clients concerned about their energy footprint.
Multi-zone configuration: maximum flexibility for your home
Intelligent capacity distribution
The 4-zone configuration allows connecting different indoor units:
- High-performance wall-mounted units
- Consoles
- Cassettes
- Compact ducts
The system accepts a wide variety of indoor capacity combinations, as long as the total load respects technical limits.
In a recent project in Montreal (Rosemont), we installed:
- 2 units of 9,000 BTU (bedrooms)
- 1 unit of 12,000 BTU (living room)
- 1 unit of 7,000 BTU (office)
This configuration allowed for optimal distribution without oversizing, avoiding short-cycling issues.
Piping length and installation flexibility
This model allows:
- Up to 230 feet of total piping length
- Up to 82 feet per indoor unit
- A vertical separation of up to 49 feet
This offers great installation freedom, especially in multi-story houses or duplexes.
HVAC Installation: what we learned in the field
Common mistakes to avoid
With multi-zone systems like this one, certain errors can harm performance:
- Incorrect BTU distribution between zones
- Installation of excessively long lines without load calculation
- Neglecting unit balancing
At AirGreen, we always perform a precise room-by-room sizing, rather than an approximate global calculation.
Concrete example in Boucherville
A client contacted us after a poorly executed installation by another contractor. The problems:
- An overheated bedroom
- Another insufficiently air-conditioned
- Excessive system noise
After inspection, we found:
- An incorrect combination of indoor units
- A configuration not compliant with compressor capacities
We corrected the distribution and replaced two units. Result: uniform comfort throughout the house.
Robust design and long-term reliability
Durable construction
The outdoor unit is designed with:
- Galvanized steel
- Anti-corrosion coating
- Tested resistance according to ISO-9227 standard (up to 240 hours)
This is particularly important in areas like the South Shore or Montreal, where humidity and salt can accelerate wear and tear.
Integrated safety systems
The system includes several protections:
- Overvoltage protection
- Compressor overload detection
- Electronic fuses
- Thermal protection logic
These elements ensure increased durability and reduce the risk of major breakdowns.
Acoustic comfort and intelligent control
Reduced noise level
- Indoor: as low as 22 dB(A)
In installations in dense urban areas, this makes a real difference, especially for units installed near bedrooms or balconies.
WiFi connectivity and SmartThings control
The system is compatible with the Samsung SmartThings application, allowing:
- Energy consumption monitoring
- Remote control
- Smart scheduling
In a project in Laval, a homeowner manages their 4 zones directly from their phone, allowing them to optimize their energy costs in real time.
Subsidies and profitability
This heat pump is eligible for a LogisVert subsidy of up to $2064 (recent update).
With:
- High energy efficiency
- Stable winter performance
- Reduced heating costs
The return on investment is generally observed between 3 and 6 years, depending on usage.

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: 17,200 BTU/h at −8 °C, 28,600 at −15 °C.
How many heads can I connect?
Up to 4 on this outdoor unit. This product is configured for 4 heads.
How much is the LogisVert grant?
$2,064 according to Hydro-Québec’s list of October 1, 2026. 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 3891568. 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?
Our sheet lists 12 years on the compressor and 12 years on parts; labour is not included by the manufacturer. 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.
