Thanks for the replies. See, the problem is, all we have is a sliding
glass door. BTW, can any window unit operate vertically instead of
horizontally?

No, but they do make units designed for vertically-mounted windows
(like casement windows). You could probably kludge one of those into a
patio door, basically resting it on the floor and filling in the space
above it. Of course, you could do the same with a horizontal model;
it's not going to be ideal.

Better to just buy a portable a/c that sits on the floor and has a hose
to vent the hot air outside. There's gotta be some way for you to get
a hole for a small hose to go outside...
