Wall-mounted heat pump

The power

The power (or capacity) of your wall unit has a direct impact on your comfort level. To make the right choice, you need to take into account not only your living area, but also your home’s configuration, fenestration, level of sunlight and insulation.

The quick selection chart below will guide you in estimating the power you need. Used by Entreprises MPH for over 15 years, this chart is based on heat load calculations for a bungalow (standard one-storey open-plan house).

Power output by square footage

That said, if in doubt, it’s advisable to call on air-conditioning professionals. They’ll be able to determine the ideal wattage for your home, as well as the best location for the unit. Your comfort is at stake.

A heat pump that’s too powerful for your needs will cool the air too quickly, preventing humidity from escaping properly. For comfortable room air, it should be neither too dry nor too humid. In summer, the ideal humidity level is between 40% and 50%. During the cold season, we aim for 30%.

Noise level

Wall-mounted units are becoming increasingly quiet. To compare the sound levels of the different models on the market, you need to check the number of decibels (dB).

There are two main variants to consider: the indoor unit and the outdoor unit.

– Indoor unit (evaporator): the fan speed must be indicated on the data sheet, along with the air flow rate (CFM) and noise level (dB). As a guide, the quietest model currently available for the indoor unit is the LG Prestige at 17 dB.

– Outdoor unit (condenser): operating noise is given in dB at the highest speed in the data sheets. The quietest units at present are the LG Prestige and the Fujitsu RLS3 and RLS3H with 43 dB for the outdoor unit.

Note that models with an Inverter compressor are quieter than those with an ON/OFF compressor.

Energy efficiency ratings

Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) and Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) are displayed on the wall-mounted heat pump’s yellow Energy Guide label.

SEER: the ratio of cooling capacity (BTU/h) divided by the unit’s gross energy consumption (kWh or Watt/h). The higher the SEER ratio, the lower the heat pump’s efficiency.

HSPF: this is the ratio between the heating capacity in (BTU/h) divided by the unit’s gross energy consumption (kWh or Watt/h). The higher the HSPF ratio, the less energy the unit consumes in heating mode.

When making your purchase, HSPF is a very important factor to consider. Generally speaking, we estimate that a heat pump with an HSPF of 14 can save you up to $500 on your annual heating bill (taking into account the energy consumed during the cooling months). In comparison, a unit with an HSPF of 9 will save you around $200.

You may also have heard of the energy efficiency ratio (EER or EER). This value is mainly used by air-conditioning engineers and technicians.

The coefficient of performance (COP) measures the efficiency of your heat pump for heating. All units have a COP, but some manufacturers don’t display their technical data.

The advantages of Fujitsu

Energetic efficiency

Fujitsu wall-mounted heat pumps are among the most efficient on the market, with a seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) of up to 33 and a seasonal coefficient of performance (COP) of 4.7. In other words, you benefit from efficient heating and air conditioning while saving on your energy bill.

Heating performance

Fujitsu heat pumps achieve unparalleled performance surpassing even the highest efficiency standards. For example, the 12,000 Btu/h model generates over 11,200 Btu/h, or 120% of its rated capacity, in extreme cold conditions of -26°C.

Base with heating element (CTEB models only): Low temperature outdoor units have a heating element that produces heat even in extremely low outdoor temperatures. When temperatures drop below freezing, the heating element heats the base of the unit to prevent condensate from freezing.
