I am considering installing central air & heat, however, the area next to
my house where I would like to locate the outside coils is narrow: about
32" wide and 10' long. Are there any units that are particularly narrow
(shallow) that could fit this space, with enough room to get around them
and service them?

Nope.

Not unless you think Mitsubishi, or the like...even then, I dont think that
there would be enough room for the manufactures specs, or most codes.

When I put mine in the inspector made me stay 4 feet away from the
neighbors house. I put in a 14 seer condenser which was alot bigger
than the lower seer units.

Maybe you could cut in an access that you could crawl thru, which would
allow you to get to the back side of the a/c unit for servicing ( ? ) .
If by chance , this is a Dog Run you are thinking of putting the a/c
unit in , i wouldnt do that --- a dogs urine is acidic and will eat thru
the fins and tubes of the condensor. I once had a Dog do that to a unit
over several years and it needed replacing -- there were hardly any fins
left on the unit ; never thought id get a replacement a/c job from a
Dog..but hey, im not choosy. I think i even thru a new DogBone into the
estimate.
