Zoning uses the same threshold for heat pumps.<\/p>\n<p>The measurement point changes everything. It\u2019s not the level one meter from the unit that counts; it\u2019s what crosses your property line.

Fines start at $200 for individuals.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, there&#8217;s good news: Blainville&#8217;s bylaw on site planning and architectural integration programs (PIIA) only applies to main buildings, their expansions, and certain accessory structures. <strong>A residential heat pump is not subject to it.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-blk1tx ta-reveal e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"blk1tx\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bll2ej elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"bll2ej\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Replacing an original unit<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-blmnx3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"blmnx3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When a house dates back to 1998 and the unit is the one installed by the builder, two things have changed since then.<\/p>\n<p>First, efficiency: a unit from that generation has nothing in common with today\u2019s cold-climate heating technology. Second, sizing: your house may have been expanded, the basement finished, or windows replaced. The original power rating is no longer necessarily the right one.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why we recalculate the load on the building envelope rather than just using the tonnage of the old unit.

For a finished basement, a room above the garage, or an addition that the main system doesn&#8217;t reach, a <a href=\"https:\/\/techno-air.ca\/en\/services\/wall-mounted-heat-pump\/\">multi-zone wall unit<\/a> solves the problem without rerouting the network.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding subsidies, the unit must be ENERGY STAR certified as of November 26, 2025, and our RBQ license number must appear on your invoice.
