This unit is stating indoor installation, can this unit be also installed outdoor but in a metal up to code closet?

I would say yes, mainly because it will be enclosed. Only concern for me is that you have it warm enough so that your input line doesn't freeze. Not sure what your climate is like, but for me I HAVE to gave it inside.

It is essential that the unit be in a location where it will not freeze up. Even with an indoor installation, my daughter's unit froze and was destroyed because the exhaust pipe allowed very cold air to feed into the unit when the 'flapper' valve got lodged open.

I actually spoke to My cellular phone carrier prior to purchasing this unit and they told me it's an indoor unit no parts of it should be outdoors it's an indoor antenna so the elements will effect and probably have damaged your unit.

Yes it can be installed indoors. It does make some noise, so you may want to consider that before installing in an area where you will be when running.

The manual talks mainly about it being used outdoors, with some words about it also being okay for an attic. The mounting hardware included does not lend to it being used indoors.

You can install in a recessed area as long as there is enough clearance top bottom and each side as per the install specs, otherwise you need to install the indoor model and put a vent on it... hope this helps

Yes, if you can put it in some housing to protected against the weather. Also, the receptacle in the separate box is weather protected, but the connection between the two has to be weather appropriate. In addition the control box has to be connected to the main electrical panel. So, maybe the male receptacle in the weathered box should be on the outside and the control box on the inside?

This model is designed to be mounted indoors, that can be a home, shed or garage as long as it is not outside. Do pay attention to the clearances required for the unit to have enough fresh air to operate.

This is outdoor only. It has to be in an exterior open aired space. No interior garage installation allowed. that would vent harmful exhaust into the garage. They sell the indoor unit and will require proper venting flue. Both indoor and outdoor units are great!

Yes you can successfully install this cat door within a metal exterior door. Follow instructions provided to cut for larger hole opening as the metal within the door interferes with the sensor and magnet on the collar.

No. The pre-installed hardware is designed for overhead installation of the unit. The instructions also are written only for overhead installation.

If it were installed under an eave our other location not exposed to direct weather, I don't see why the metal housing wouldn't hold up. The units are well constructed.

The outdoor unit has provisions to be hung on a wall. The indoor unit does not.

I installed it in successfully in the wall of my shed because there was no insulation or drywall involved. As others have noted, it is possible, if you buy the mounting kit or are creative and/or skilled enough. To install one in a typical home wall you should look for one specifically engineered for that location. Wall models usually have double flap doors to keep the weather out better and will have a section that extends into the the wall to keep the insulation where it should be.

per Netamo you can install three Indoor modules. The outdoor does not count as an Indoor module.

I do not believe it is intended for that purpose, however if it were mounted in a weatherproof cabinet with properly protected electrical and plumbing you could probably get away with it. Also it would have to be an environment where freezing temperatures are never encountered. Many of the parts are plastic, but there may be some like the drawer slides that are steel and might eventually rust.

Not really...I had my general contractor put it in when he was building the outdoor kitchen. This is a built-in unit.

Yes it can although all connections should be in a box. If installing a box is not practical make sure all connections are taped good. He might not do it that way because it won't be in code.
