All large condensers are designed to be mounted on a concrete plinth which supports the unit fully. In this case the installer has wall mounted the system using a set of home made brackets.

It’s a miracle that this thing stays on the wall. There is no way I would walk under this thing!

My personal favourite feature is the drip tray. All manufacturers use a small drip tray built into the unit. Every engineer knows that without fail these do not work.

If you want to stop any leaks you need to install a proper drip tray under the unit.

The engineers in this case have done this but hey, why install a drip tray which stops drips from the whole unit when you can install a small one which only catches half the water?

But, in all, honesty we have to comment on the pipe work. This is actually quite good. Well done that engineer!
