Personally, I have never seen a window type inverter system such as you
describe, only the split systems. Doesn't mean they aren't out
there on
this side of the pond, just that I've not seen them and I was looking
for any suitable alternatives to the window/thru wall units two years
ago when I went to the current split.



They do make window shaker heat pumps but I am not sure how big the
market actually is for them. I suspect it may just be using mini split
hardware in one box.

You see them in motels, at least that's where I've mostly seen them.
Not exactly a window unit, but through the wall, self-contained.

I'm surprised glass can support the weight of those things.


The glass doesn't provide the majority of support, the window sill does
and if it can't handle the weight of an A/C unit you have far bigger
problems.


More like the glass doesn't provide any of the support, unless it's
an unusual window. Again, the idiot is just trolling.


Oh do **** off. I've never seen a window mounted AC unit and assumed they were like our extractor fans - mounted in the centre of the window. Why on earth would you assume I was trolling? Seriously, you're ****ing demented. Nobody on the entire planet would ask a question if they weren't asking it seriously. I've had enough of your treehugging left wing bull**** and you're off my list.
