The Charmo line goes higher than other Gree mini-splits: 36,000 BTU nominal heating capacity, compared to 24,000 for the Airy and Clivia lines. It also comes in a 115 V version, and ENERGY STAR certification covers all six capacities. Its limit is elsewhere: it heats down to −25°C, five degrees less than the other lines.
On the updated Charmo R32 spec sheet, the ENERGY STAR line says yes for all six capacities, from 9,100 to 33,600 BTU in cooling. Eligibility for rebate programs is therefore not an issue there.
It comes down to the heating range. The Charmo goes down to −25°C, while the Airy, Clivia, and Multizone lines hold up to −30°C. In a home where the heat pump must handle the bulk of winter heating, five degrees change the number of hours where the backup takes over. In a home that keeps a furnace, the question is different, and the Charmo becomes the obvious economic choice.
| Nominal capacity | SEER2 | HSPF2 | Outdoor unit noise | ENERGY STAR |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9,100 BTU/h | 20.5 | 8.8 | 61 dB(A) | Yes |
| 12,000 BTU/h | 19 | 8.5 | 62 dB(A) | Yes |
| 18,000 BTU/h | 20 | 8.5 | 67 dB(A) | Yes |
| 24,000 BTU/h | 19 | 8.5 | 68 dB(A) | Yes |
| 30,000 BTU/h | 22 | 9 | 72 dB(A) | Yes |
| 33,600 BTU/h | 21 | 8.5 | 72 dB(A) | Yes |
The noise level column deserves attention in tight spaces. At 72 dB(A) measured at the unit, larger models require careful distance and orientation to comply with municipal regulations — 50 dB(A) at the property line in Rosemère and Lorraine, emergence logic in Saint-Eustache.
Heating from −25 °C to 24 °C, cooling from −18 °C to 50 °C on smaller models and −20 °C to 50 °C on 30,000 and 33,600 BTU models. Refrigerant line up to 40 meters.
The heating range stops five degrees higher than that of the Airy and Clivia lines. In a home where the heat pump must bear a significant portion of winter heating, this is a selection criterion, not a spec sheet detail.
Dehumidification, I-Feel function, self-cleaning, self-diagnosis, low-voltage startup, A2L sensor, and Wi-Fi are factory included.

Yes, for all six capacities in the line according to the manufacturer’s updated spec sheet. The brochure also mentions eligibility for certain government rebate programs, which maintain their own criteria.
Down to −25 °C according to the manufacturer’s sheet, which is five degrees lower than the Airy and Clivia lines.
Yes, 115 V systems are offered in the line. They are covered in a separate manufacturer’s brochure.
We’ll come to you, take measurements, and explain what works best and why. Then, you decide.
