How does that work then.. I get it for the portable ones, you stick the pipe out of the window, but last time I priced up a mini split it was more than twice the cost of a single room due to the installation work involved. There has to be ducting, they're not magic..

You drill a small hole and run some hoses outside from each room.

It’s definitely more expensive than a window air conditioner, but a lot quieter and more efficient, and provides heat.
