Yes, I think those are the ones I looked at. The only problem
with them is that for the size I need it would not split to
enough cooling points inside. If I remember two smaller units
would also not split enough, can't really remember now. Then
there was also the problem that I did want to use geothermal
cooling which was and as far as I know still is not available in
those type of units.
The other down side of those units is they pump freon around
rather then chilled water. With the water units the individual
cooling units can be over-sized due to the self throttling of the
water flow. That way a smaller chiller can be used since not all
the units will be going full out at any one time and probably not
at any time due to the shape of and insulation in my house
(dome). In the winter any heating needed can also be done using
the same system. It would also be a lot easier to make changes in
the system to see what might be a better location of cooling
units. Yeah I do like to experiment and see 'what if'.

There is a system called a mini-split or multi-split that sounds like
what you are describing. It doesnt work with your radiators but
it's an
installed outdoor unit connected to one or more interior units. I
believe they can work in AC and/or heating modes.
