My experience with these units is that they're horribly unreliable too. I worked in an industry where we'd use these for temporary or emergency cooling for server rooms and I don't know if I ever saw a model last more than a year. A lot of window units are pretty flaky too, unfortunately, but you'll probably at least get 2-3 years out of one.
Well most of the world lives in apartments where only floor* units are an option so they do exactly what they should. Ofc it's less efficient if the hose is uninsulated. But that's fixed with 20bucks and some tape
Even renting a house it’s in my lease I can’t use a window unit. Which sucks because our swamp cooler outputs into the living room in a way that makes it very difficult to get its air into the second bedroom.
Always depends where one lives, here in my case nobody complains about any noise so I just say fuck it we ball. friend of mine too has it even tho they don't want it, but nobody complains so we keep it
Long as the landlord isn’t regularly coming by the property for inspections then yeah fair
