Looks like the heat pump has plenty of breathing room for fresh air...

Have you dressed the drip tube so the water will flow away from the slab?

In cooling mode, water will come from the drip tube, in heating mode, water will come from the bottom of the outside unit.

On my unit, I didn't use the rigid cover for the line set. Didn't know they were available. But I did wrap the line set in two layers of foam tape to prevent heat loss. Your rigid cover probably serves the same purpose.
