Help hiding hoses on a mini-split system

[DarthMuffin]

I'm finishing up installing a 24k BTU Amcor mini-split AC system. It's installed, just gotta get someone to pull a vacuum before I fire it up.

Does anyone have any suggestions for hiding the external hoses/power cables? There's a bundle about 3" wide running down the outside of my wall right now.

Something like this?

I've seen plastic downspout material used...

Those covers look great, dlc, but it doesn't say how or where to buy them I think my hoses are bigger than a downspout, and besides, they're already ran and attached. I couldn't thread them through a spout.

The spout gave me an idea though, I may try a bit of gutter material.

I have used Gutter before

I can't tell for sure, but the line set covers I used look pretty much exactly like those in that link. I bought mine http://www.minisplitsystems.com/cgi/display.cgi?item_num=DHS1010

Even though it says they are backordered, mine came in a few days.

Anyway I think they are pretty nice, and I would get them again. The various parts are really made up of two pieces. There is a back piece that you screw to the wall, and a front cap that snaps/screws to the back so you don't have to feed the lineset through. I've gotten quite a bit of compliments on them, especially the guys who came to evacuate the lines.

Here are a few pics of mine in action:

My similar unit install would have been easier like that, but seeing yours I'm glad I ran the linesets inside the wall.

I guess it would look nicer if I had run them in the wall, but the garage is all finished inside. I was somewhat concerned with the potential for sweating and moisture inside the wall. I don't think it looks that bad, but meh, to each his own.
