    It could be a thing for any rural house in countries that have the land for it.

    Yes, but the vast majority of Europeans are not rural -- and unlike Americans, they aren't suburban, either.

      Lack of space is the primary reason for putting it on a roof. It will get direct sunlight and there will random temperature differences so efficiency will never really be perfect. The condenser coils are also covered and it's not open like a ground unit would be.

      They could put it in the shade, and that would be nice. I am curious where they should put it in this case...

      I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of those “American style” ground units in Europe. They all look like the one in the picture and are predominantly wall or roof mounted.

        This guy's European roof looks better than the prettiest American houses

        American eyes can't bear the blinding light of the truth and they scurry back into the gooncave.

              As an American, I'm offended by this characterization...

                    They exist, but primarily for heavy duty or professional use - think office spaces or supermarkets. Most homes are fine with wall units.

                      LOL no. Where do you live? Sure isn't south of the Mason-Dixon line or southwest of the Rockies. Only people in warm areas without central HVAC are in old houses where no one has been able to afford the installation.

                        Say what? They sit on 1 sq. meter slabs. Are you thinking HVAC units are the size of RVs?!

                          You and the commenter above are blowing my mind. How much land do you think an HVAC unit requires?! You simply install it on the north side of the house/apartment/whatever, out of the sun.

                            Indeed, Europe is not very close to The Rocky Mountains Sherlock.

                                Also it's not a matter of if that hole in the roof for the tubes will leak, but when. Don't put holes in your roof.

                                    Nah, that's the antenna to watch TV for the TV watching license.

                                    I have heard that they recently passed a bill for having a toaster license you have to use to use your own damn toaster.

                                      They might have meant that. Americans using climate change to bully them to install a mini split.

                                        I know it doesn't require much land, but there isn't any land available in population dense areas. Roof installations would be required for row houses and situations like that.
