Dear Elena,

1. More importantly, the centre of the house would be a major consideration.

The impact at the middle of the roof, should not be an issue here.

2. In my opinion, you can still place this unit so long as it is on one side of the roof (centrally is acceptable) where possible try to `balance' it equally between the side of the roof.

3. The centrepoint concept applies more towards the interior of the home where centrepoint preferably is clear space.

4. For the roof, so long as your roof is symmetrical, this additional object should not have an impact. Where possible, the piping should not `drip' down to the centrepoint of the house (as this would not be good). It should run into the roof, and to a side.

However, you should make sure that there should not be any leaks (later on) dripping to the centrepoint.

Warmest Regards
Cecil
