Why?). Each unit heats and cools up to two rooms. Why does it need 240V for a unit that can only heat or cool two rooms? If you have a two-room house, you have to pull 240V wiring to some outdoor location. If you have an eight-room house, you have to pull 240V wiring four times. And you need circuit box room for four 240V breakers.

Anyone see an installation issue?

You meant “Its HEATING capacity at 46.4 F (8 C) ranges from 2,500 BTU/hour to 20,500 BTU/hour, while its cooling capacity at 95 F (35 C) spans from 2,500 BTU/hour to 20,500 BTU/hour.”
