The unit we have does hum a bit, so we didn’t want it in a sleeping area. The best suitable place on our Defever also turned out to be the ER. I mounted it on a bulkhead and had three stainless steel “staples” made as attachment points. The prongs of each staple are threaded rod and the connecting pieces are robust stainless bar stock. The prongs/studs penetrate the wall and the connecting pieces serve as backing plates to spread the load. (The Charles Isoboost I installed was well over 200 lbs.).
We lowered the unit through a hatch onto planks in the ER and maneuvered it into position. Alignment and proper hole placement in the bulkhead were critical, but the transformer slid onto the protruding studs on the first try. The phots I have don’t show electrical connections. I’ve had zero problems with AC power since installing it.
