Can anyone explain the installation process for these units?
Is it just a fancy version of a window unit? My thought is it sits on the ground, you punch a hole in the wall for the vent to mount and you run a line to a power source. Is that about it?

You run copper lines for the refrigerant to the inside unit.

No, the inside unit is a combination evaporator coil and air handler, it can be mounted on any wall, a set of refrigerant lines and a power cable are run to the compressor unit outside. The system can be sized where one outside unit can support multiple inside units. The design eliminates the need for ductwork, making it simple to add to existing structure, and if multiple units are installed you can have greater control over the temperature in each room.
