Performance according placement of the ASHP?
Anyone has seen some number on performance of ASHP based on the placement?
From orientation (Nort, south...) to distance to the house or walls.
Some manufactures give guidance to how far the heat pump should be places from walls. Partially because of performance (I guess mostly to ensure airflow and no air circling) and to ensure maintenance and access to the HP. But there is a great difference between the guidance. From 30 cm to at more then 1m, not 'between' walls...
To understand what is really impacting performance. Anyone seen performance numbers versus placement?
thanks in advance,
Walter
