Cutting-Edge Technology for Multi-Seasonal Comfort At AirGreen, we focus on reliable, high-performance HVAC solutions to meet the diverse needs of residential and commercial buildings. The Lennox Varix | 96,000 BTU | 460V | Parts by Samsung VRF heat pump fits perfectly into this high-performance approach. It represents the alliance of Lennox innovation and refrigerant flow control technology, combined with Samsung components. This combination provides stable heating and cooling in a wide range of climatic conditions, including the harsh winters of the Montreal , Laval , Longueuil , North Shore and South Shore regions.
How AirGreen Optimizes Energy Efficiency in the Greater Montreal Area Our team handles HVAC installation and maintenance projects in various sectors: commercial, industrial, residential, and institutional buildings. The primary objective: to ensure maximum performance while maintaining a reasonable energy bill. Thanks to VRF (Variable Refrigerant Flow) technology, the heat pump adapts in real time to changes in temperature and demand, allowing each zone of the building to be precisely heated or cooled. The benefits translate into superior comfort and better energy cost management.
A model designed to manage up to 16 zones
The Lennox Varix | 96,000 BTU | 460V VRF heat pump is designed to provide precise temperature control in up to 16 indoor zones. This multi-core configuration is particularly useful for buildings where each room or section requires different comfort levels. Office buildings, hotels, and large residential properties appreciate this level of customization. For example, a commercial space on the South Shore can maintain one air conditioning temperature in a retail space, while reserving a different setting for a warehouse or administrative office.

Synergy between Lennox and Samsung
Lennox , a manufacturer renowned for its expertise in heating and air conditioning systems, has collaborated with Samsung for certain parts of this Varix model. This synergy results in advanced management electronics, increased reliability and superior energy efficiency. At AirGreen, we have had the opportunity to install this model in several buildings in Montreal and Laval , and the feedback is unanimously positive: the system's responsiveness and the quality of the temperature control stand out from anything else on the market.
VRF mechanism: how it works
The VRF principle is based on a continuous adjustment of the refrigerant flow rate sent to each indoor unit. Instead of operating only in on/off mode, the compressor adjusts its rotation speed according to the actual heating or cooling needs. Thus:
-
Reduced energy consumption : The system never runs at full capacity longer than necessary.
-
Uniform comfort : Temperature variations are minimal in each zone.
-
Simplified maintenance : Unlike other systems, wear is reduced since there are fewer sudden starts/stops.
By combining the Lennox Varix VRF heat pump with suitable cassettes and fan coil units (wall-mounted, ceiling-mounted, ducted), it is possible to configure a highly flexible network, regardless of the complexity of the building.
Case study: a commercial building in Longueuil
Recently, our AirGreen team completed a complete HVAC installation in a three-story commercial building in Longueuil. The owners wanted:
-
Optimal comfort for employees and customers.
-
A silent system to meet concentration needs.
-
Reduced operating costs.
After analysis, we recommended the Lennox Varix | 96,000 BTU | 460V VRF heat pump , along with several cassette-type indoor units. As a result, the monthly energy bill was reduced by nearly 25% compared to the previous traditional multi-zone system. Occupants reported a significant improvement in comfort, especially in winter. Thanks to the heating range down to -30°C , even in extreme cold, the building remains comfortably heated without straining the equipment.
Maintenance and durability
Every heat pump, even the most advanced, requires periodic HVAC maintenance . At AirGreen, we offer maintenance contracts that include:
-
Checking the refrigerant level : Ensure there are no leaks and that the correct volume of R-410A is present.
-
Cleaning indoor and outdoor units : Removing dust and debris that can reduce performance.
-
Checking electrical connections : Checking the 460V voltage and compressor stability.
-
Update of regulation parameters : To optimize performance based on changes in the building configuration.
Thanks to this preventative approach, the Lennox Varix heat pump can offer a lifespan of more than 15 years, while maintaining high efficiency.
Installation approach at AirGreen
Whether in Montreal , Laval , Longueuil , on the North Shore or the South Shore , our installation procedure is standardized to guarantee quality. We generally proceed as follows:
-
Initial inspection : Dimension survey, analysis of thermal requirements and electrical infrastructure (460V verification).
-
Zoning study : Precise identification of spaces with distinct climates to determine the number and type of indoor units.
-
Sizing the refrigerant network : Calculation of the length of piping, as well as the diameters required for optimal flow rate.
-
Installation : Installation of the outdoor module (respecting the necessary space: 51 x 30.13 x 66.75 inches), connection of the indoor units via the refrigerant plumbing, electrical connection and control configuration.
-
Test phase : Leak testing, pressurization, heating and air conditioning tests in each area.
-
Training : Detailed explanation to the customer or building manager of the available settings, basic maintenance and the control interface.
This methodology helps eliminate unforeseen events and ensures that each installation runs smoothly, while minimizing inconvenience to occupants.
Environmental impact and energy standards
In addition to being Energy Star® certified, the Lennox Varix heat pump boasts a high SEER (depending on indoor unit selection and actual conditions). A higher SEER means better cooling efficiency, meaning less energy waste. Combined with the ability to continuously adjust capacity, this solution significantly reduces the carbon footprint, which is a major advantage for businesses concerned with meeting environmental standards.
