Default split A/C - two indoor units? Heat pump?

Hi all,

after spending the afternoon alternately trying to work on my truck in the
driveway and running inside to bask in the A/C and rub alcohol on the
skeeter bites to cool them off, I'm thinking that A/C in my garage would
be oh so nice. A friend recommended a two piece unit but I am not seeing
exactly what I'd like from a quick google search. I'm thinking it would
be nice to be able to have two indoor units, one upstairs and one
downstairs, and also if either/both could function as a heat pump that
would be great, because there's no heat out there either. Is there
anything on the market that fits my needs?

thanks

nate

I had a little extra capacity in my system so I ran two ducts with registers
into my garage-- and it works just fine. I leave them open in the Georgia
summer but close them down in winter. One nice side benefit, mold.mildew has
fallen way off.....



Sorry, I didn't specify - this is a detached building; garage bay
downstairs, large room and bathroom upstairs. Not connected to house at
all, only utilities present electric and water (no gas, hence my
question heat pump.)
