I have one in my den which has a flat ceiling so no way to run ductwork. Since it's a heatpump it sometimes will blow cool air but it does heat and cool the area. My wife hates it because she says it's ugly.

I have had a Mitsubishi mini-split in a 12x16 addition for about 4 years now.  Normal room, not a sunroom, but as I recall it claimed it would cover a room up to 600 sq feet so I assume the excess capacity will handle a sunroom.  It was bigger than needed because the supplier did not have a smaller one in stock at the time.  Paid less than $1500 installed but the AC guy is a neighbor so I might have gotten a deal.  It is dead quiet inside so I love that.  Outside unit has a fan so it initially vibrated a bit (installed on a deck), but some big rubber washers from Lowes eliminated that.  You have to be near the outside unit to hear the fan.  I wish all ACs were that quiet.  I think you need a second quote.  You can google the price of Fujistu 18,000 btu minisplits and see that even with the local supplier markup your price seems high.  Installation consisted of drilling a big hole in the wall to run pipes and wires, hang inside unit on wall and connect pipes between interior and exterior unit, run power to exterior unit.  2-3 hours in my case, but obviously things vary depending on how far they have to run power and whatever special situations your house has.  But for $4500 I would think you could replace a whole house heat pump for a small house and that involve more time, bigger equipment, more freon and longer runs of copper pipe.

would you mind emailing me your neighbor who installed your system ? was the $1500 inclusive of the unit or did you purchase it separately

I am pretty sure that is what we put in the new building we just built. So far, we really like it. You are more than welcome to drop in and check it out and ask John any other questions you may have.
