They make window heat pump units now. Might work as a cheap mini split alt.

I don’t know the price points but I appreciate the suggestion.
The window units are much more efficient than the portables with hoses. A lot less loss.
Very good to know, thank you.
This is correct, but they do make portable units with two hoses. Those will be as efficient as a window unit. Costco sells dual hose models for a few hundred dollars. I have one and it works well for heating and cooling.
