Here is an idea from BJ at Prochem. He had clients that wanted to have the rear hookup option.
He also did a nice job with the L brackets for his hangers.

Side mounted unit.

I'd insulate the walls and ceiling. Plywood to protect the side skin and luan board for the ceiling. Paint the ceiling and carpet the plywood. It could be a pretty nice rig.

It's really thin and flexible. It's easier to work with overhead and no need for the thicker plywood in that spot.

We made templates on the first Transit to save time as we put the others together. With all the strange bump outs and curves it was worth doing.

Looks like a plumber built it.

It would be like cats and dogs fighting. Totally unnecessary and people would get bored with it. 😁

When I saw it I thought it was unnecessary. However many cleaners there loved it. So, what do I know??? IDIOTS!
😉


If it was me, i wouldve used in place a 2.5 hose instead of plumbing all that...

I have a side and rear hookup with my slide-in, but it is for dual wands. Is that PVC 2" or 2.5"?

I don't see any advantage to have the rear hookup in a single wand situation.

Is that a dual wand setup because I know that machine is definitely capable of dual wands.

Not sure. I didn't measure it. I thought it was foolish actually. If I had to guess I'd say 2.5.
