It is two separate units. One is an outside unit like the one you already have for the house but smaller. The other unit goes inside on a wall and blows out the cold air. The two units are connected to each other by tubing.

So nothing in a window. You do need a permit. If used on for a garage or a lanai it technically is not an air conditioner, it is considered a dehumidifier but the effect is the same. Building codes here do not allow airconditioners in garages or lanais.
