ᐅ Heating system in the extension at the property boundary

Our current design includes an extension behind the carport at the property boundary to serve as a basement replacement room. It is intended to have direct access to the house. So far, I have received conflicting information about whether this room can also be used as a utility room (primarily for the heating system). Perhaps you can help clarify this. Is it allowed to install the heating system in this room? My current neighbor has done it this way, so I was somewhat surprised by the recent statement from a prefab home manufacturer saying that this would not be approved.

Longer pipe runs naturally mean potential heat loss and more points where issues can occur. If the hot water tank is located in a cooler room, this also leads to increased heat loss. However, in principle, it is possible.

Understood. Thank you very much for your answers! What would I clueless person do without this forum? They could install the heating system right in my living room and make me believe that it was a good idea.

Then take a look at the Viessmann Invisible series, which are heat pumps designed for indoor living space installation.
