If I am thinking of the same units as he is they pipe the freon
around the house along with the AC voltage and control lines.
You end up with several potential sources of RFI plus a built
in antenna and house-wiring distribution system for that RFI.
I looked into them a couple of years ago and in addition to the
installation hassles and extra expense, they looked likely RFI
trouble and future maintenance hassles, so we didn't go that way.

odels seem to come with variable speed compressors which are PWM

RFI monsters. Does anyone have any general experience?
Variable speed motors are VERY well known to be sources of VERY NASTY
RFI. Not all are bad, but enough are to give them a bad reputation.
