A High-Performance Multi-Zone Solution for Greater Montreal Residences
At AirGreen, we regularly install multi-zone HVAC systems in properties in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, as well as on the North Shore and South Shore. The SAMSUNG Premium FJM 4-zone Heat Pump – 36,000 BTU stands out as a particularly effective solution for homes requiring precise temperature control in multiple rooms.
This model allows connecting up to 4 independent indoor units to a single outdoor unit, offering personalized comfort in each space. Whether for a single-family home, a duplex, or a multi-level condo, this configuration optimizes comfort while reducing energy consumption.
Exceptional Heating and Cooling Performance
Adapted to Quebec's Harsh Winters
One of the most important aspects for our clients is the actual heating capacity in winter conditions. This heat pump is designed to operate efficiently down to -25°C, which is essential for Montreal's climate.
According to the manufacturer's technical data, the system:
- Maintains high heating capacity even at -25°C
- Offers stable heating power down to -15°C
- Integrates a built-in base heater to optimize defrosting
In our installations in Laval and on the South Shore, we have observed that this model often allows for a significant reduction in the use of auxiliary heating, even during cold snaps.
Capacity and Energy Efficiency
- Cooling power: 36,000 BTU
- SEER2: up to 21.5
- HSPF2: up to 9.5
- EER2: up to 12.5
These performances make it an excellent choice for benefiting from LogisVert subsidies, currently around $2472.
Inverter Technology and Smart Control
High-Precision Inverter Compressor
The Twin BLDC Rotary Inverter compressor allows for continuous power adjustment, which offers:
- Stable temperature without fluctuations
- Reduced energy consumption
- Extended system lifespan
Unlike traditional ON/OFF systems, this technology adapts power according to the actual needs of each zone.
SmartThings: Complete Remote Control
The system is compatible with the SmartThings app, allowing:
- Remote control of each zone
- Energy consumption monitoring
- Automatic optimization thanks to AI Energy Mode (up to 20% additional savings)
In several projects completed in Longueuil, our clients particularly appreciate the ability to program each room independently, especially for bedrooms and home offices.
Multi-Zone Installation Flexibility
A Single Outdoor Unit, Multiple Zones
The FJM system allows:
- Up to 4 independent zones
- Flexible combinations of indoor units (wall-mounted, consoles, ducted, cassettes)
- Total piping length up to 230 feet
This flexibility is ideal for:
- Multi-story homes
- Duplexes and triplexes
- Renovations without major duct modifications
AirGreen Concrete Example
During a recent project in Boucherville:
- 1 outdoor unit installed at the back of the property
- 4 indoor units distributed between living room, kitchen, and bedrooms
- Over 35% reduction in annual energy costs
The client wanted to avoid multiple visible outdoor units — this solution perfectly met their expectations.
Acoustic Comfort and Quality of Life
Silent Operation
- Indoor sound level: 22 to 39 dB(A)
- Outdoor sound level: 53 dB(A)
This low sound level allows for installation:
- On a balcony
- Near bedrooms
- In dense urban environments (Montreal, Plateau, Rosemont)
WindFree™ Technology
Compatible units offer gentle air diffusion through micro-perforations:
- Elimination of direct drafts
- Consistent comfort in the room
- Ideal for bedrooms and rest areas
Build Quality and Durability
The outdoor unit is designed to withstand Canadian conditions:
- Galvanized steel structure with anti-corrosion coating
- Reinforced heat exchanger
- UL 60335-2-40 certification
During our installations on the North Shore, especially in areas exposed to wind and snow, this robustness is essential to ensure the system's longevity.
Professional Installation: A Key Performance Factor
At AirGreen, we emphasize a crucial point: even the best heat pump will not reach its full potential without rigorous installation.
What we systematically include:
- Precise thermal load calculation
- Optimal zone sizing
- Installation of high-quality refrigerant lines
- Complete commissioning with electronic verification
- Airflow optimization in each room
Common Mistakes to Avoid
We have often been called to correct poorly executed installations:
- Poor zone balancing
- Excessive piping length without recalibration
- Inadequate positioning of indoor units
These errors significantly reduce the system's efficiency and lifespan.

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 4 heads.
How much is the LogisVert grant?
$2,472 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 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?
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.
