Yes, would require a backflow shutoff valve and a bit of plumbing. Surprised that AC installers haven't suggested this method ...but, agree that the monthly manual flush works just fine!
If I did a new build that is exactly what I'd do. Would just need two regular ball valves. Much easier than dragging a hose out with the rubber bladder. The advantage would be a hot water flush by just closing one valve and opening another.
