Where should i intent to put the aircon compressor?
Is there any difference if i put it under direct sunlight compare to shade area? Will it consume more power and less cold if put on the wall which is facing WEST (sunset direction) ?

Saw all the supermarket compressor are put on top ot their roof.

I put all my AC compressor on my rooftop there, first of all, your house looks nicer, let's face it, those compressors are fugly. Second, those metal thingy that support your compressor, it gets rusty after some time and will ruin your wall paint. Take a look at your neighbours and you'll know what I mean. 3rdly, servicing those compressors would be easy, I installed a tap on my roof for them to wash as well.

The downside would be the cost, I did all the concealed copper piping when I did my renovation, it is not recommended if you're staying in the house, just think of all the hacking and dust. sweat.gif
And copper pipe isn't cheap either, imagine running from your living room to your rooftop.
