The better ones have two ducts that vent outside, one for inlet and one for=
 exhaust otherwise you are drawing in air from outside, etc.  From what I h=
ave seen people discussing in the RV world, efficiencies are typically noto=
riously low.

Many RV'ers are installing inverter style mini splits instead. They are jus=
t hanging the "outside" portion on the outer wall of the RV.  The kicker is=
 that they seem to be able to find HVAC guys that will check over and fill =
a system they install resulting in much lower installed costs.

Does anyone here have any experience with said appliance?

My main wonder is where does the exhaust go? Does these things have an exha=
ust "port" that I can hook a hose up to and run it where ever?

thanks
