Identify the unit and whether its position would change
Observed official Kirkland checklist text includes manufacturer records and distinct rooftop- and ground-mounted equipment topics. Direct PDF access was blocked. Ask which current documents apply to the actual proposal, without treating those categories as universal residential requirements.
Identify the proposed model or manufacturer reference if already known. Describe the existing equipment position separately from the intended position, including whether roof or ground context is being considered. Leave an undecided location visible instead of letting a model selection silently settle it.
Keep location review separate from equipment selection
Describe nearby retained features and any access or appearance questions that matter to the proposal. Keep them with the location record while an appropriate professional assesses the installation. These observations can explain the enquiry without selecting a mounting method, clearance or electrical arrangement.
Ask the City which checklist topics address this particular proposal, and retain the response with the equipment and location references. If either changes, identify the difference in the next discussion. The resulting record should show what remains to be assessed, without promising capacity, approval, incentives or performance.
Why distinguish rooftop and ground-mounted context in a Kirkland equipment enquiry?
The observed checklist separates those document topics. Identify the actual proposal and ask which current records and assessment apply to it.
Does choosing a heat-pump model select its outdoor mounting location?
No. Keep the model and proposed position as separate assessment questions. Identify both the existing and intended locations rather than infer a mounting decision from the product name.

For a rented home, confirm who can authorize alterations. In a shared building, ask about access and work rules. A citywide construction period does not establish the age, condition or safety requirements of an individual home; check the property records and the specific project.
