    Looking into a new booth and with the limited space one of the options is to mount the air make up unit outside. Just looking to see if anyone had any issues with one mounted this way.
    Thanks

    I have seen a lot of makeup units outside. Not ideal, but it will work. Also I know Garmat and I think at least one other manufacturer has setups with all the mechanicals on the roof of the booth

    There are a ton of shops here with them on the roof (ours included). Really not many issues at all. I would hope that there is easy access to the roof (just in case). Only common issue up here is having the units freeze up. This usually only happens when the weather is humid/wet then freezes, particularly if the booth isn’t used for a few days (like over a weekend).
