Eric Aune compares different stands for outdoor mini-split and heat-pump equipment, focusing on durability, stability, corrosion resistance, and installation flexibility. In northern climates, he emphasizes getting equipment above snow and allowing condensate to drain properly, while also considering the weight and size of larger heat pumps. Aune looks at aluminum stands with stainless-steel hardware, comparing their adjustability, assembly, and overall construction to less expensive steel options that can eventually rust. He also explains why he prefers ground-mounted equipment over wall brackets, which can transfer vibration into the house. The discussion centers on selecting a stand that matches the equipment and jobsite conditions.
