So it is hot as hell, and my window AC broke two days ago. So I'm looking around town, and NOBODY has any. Nobody. They already have the heaters out, and it is 90* or so. What the hell?
I'll sell you my air conditioner. Haven't had the need to use it at all this summer (west coast).

They are phasing out window air conditioners as they are extrememly inefficient noisy etc etc.
wtf? Not possible. Millions of Americans rent apartments without central air conditioning.
The window air conditioner is one of the greatest inventions. EVER.
When I moved in the spring I needed two new A.C.'s. What I noticed is that there are fewer companies making them, many are the same model re-badged under several different brands.
The problem is that the quality has drastically decreased as they are now noiser and more prone to failure.
I guess the Chinese companies who make them are too concerned with their employees committing suicide, and how to get more lead into their products.

Like it or not, they are being phased out. Split sytems are far superior and far quieter. There are now solar split systems on the market so this will push the end of the window rattler.
And good riddance they are noisy pieces of crap

so, how does an apt dweller use those? You have to poke a hole in the wall to use it....most apt do not let you do that...
it's a pretty safe bet that in 99.9% of the apartments you'll ever live in, your landlord won't let you punch out a giant hole in the wall, and older buildings (re: the entire North East/Mid-Atlantic) are prohibitively expensive to setup central air in.you will have to fight your body corp or home owners agreement i think you call it in america
generally you can put them in as long as the meet conditions
