It is not only the air heat pump but also the water storage tank with potable water preparation, solar module (Vaillant VPS Allstor 1000) and ventilation system. The water storage tank is quite large... Then also the air heat pump and connections... That adds up to quite a lot

the air heat pump has max 1m² and water storage under 1m² the fan will be outside, right, or should it also go inside?

I'll say this is a large old system here and it has about 2m².

VPS 1000 = Oval design 950mm x 1195 + connections, GeoTherm VWW 61/2 = 600 x 850 + connections, + Be, and venting system (wall unit), with space it could be done with 3m²... But I'm playing it safe...

Hi,

basically, with a lot of money, a lot is possible! Although a lot does not always help a lot! This means, of course, you can position the system anywhere in the house, you just have to reinforce the attic ceiling more! Basically, all the system technology can be placed inside, which naturally takes up space, but also has economic advantages! Nevertheless, arguments such as leaks, longer connection lines, or possible noise issues due to positioning in the attic cannot be dismissed. The utility room is already a better alternative. Still, it is not uncommon to put the heating technology in the attic; for gas condensing units, this is the state of the art. There are fewer reasons against this!

I just ask myself the questions:
- What standard does your house meet?
- Who recommended this system concept to you?
- Did you hire an energy consultant or did the structural engineer simply go along with it?

Regards!
