Outdoor Unit Mounting Option
Wall Mounted on a Bracket
At The Heat Pump Store, we use a wall mounting with bracket technique common throughout Europe and Asia.
This mounting option has many advantages:
- Proven to keep the unit level and ensures proper drainage and airflow
- Useful for sloped yards, narrow side yards, and areas with landscaping
- Great for areas where the ground sees extra snow buildup
One potential pitfall of this mounting technique:
- Vibration and noise due to the bracket placement against the wall.
However, there’s some good news! The Heat Pump Store has pioneered several mounting methods to prevent noise and vibration with these wall-mounted units.
Indoor Unit Mounting Options
Wall Mounted Types
There’s a reason this is the most common type of indoor unit.
- Most affordable
- Most energy efficient
- Most powerful
- Quietest
With all the advantages, most people tend to go for wall-mounted indoor units.
Floor Mounted Types
If the wall-mounted units have so many advantages, then why would people choose a floor-mounted unit? Well, there are times when a wall-mounted unit isn’t compatible with someone’s needs. In those cases, a floor-mounted unit is still a great option!
They’re the preferred indoor mounting method for:
- Attics
- Rooms with many windows
- And more, given individual needs
It’s quite handy having more than one mounting option, so we can meet more people’s individual needs.
