Anon has been bullied

They exist, but primarily for heavy duty or professional use - think office spaces or supermarkets. Most homes are fine with wall units.
LOL no. Where do you live? Sure isn't south of the Mason-Dixon line or southwest of the Rockies. Only people in warm areas without central HVAC are in old houses where no one has been able to afford the installation.

A sprawling yard to put things on is a very american thing.

It could be a thing for any rural house in countries that have the land for it.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]You and the commenter above are blowing my mind. How much land do you think an HVAC unit requires?! You simply install it on the north side of the house/apartment/whatever, out of the sun.

"I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of those “American style” ground units in Europe."
Indeed, Europe is not very close to The Rocky Mountains Sherlock.

Dude climate change demands these. Have them powered by solar panels and its a win/win

Also it's not a matter of if that hole in the roof for the tubes will leak, but when. Don't put holes in your roof.

As an American, I'm offended by this characterization...
I don't have a gooncave.
We can't even afford a cave to goon in

Well you messed it up anon. You'll need a bigger antenna for good wifi ac
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Nah, that's the antenna to watch TV for the TV watching license.
I have heard that they recently passed a bill for having a toaster license you have to use to use your own damn toaster.

They might have meant that. Americans using climate change to bully them to install a mini split.

I know it doesn't require much land, but there isn't any land available in population dense areas. Roof installations would be required for row houses and situations like that.

Ok and where are you gonna put 20 of those next to an apartment building

Ah yes, let me put a 1 sq. meter concrete slab on my French balcony.

This doesn't look like an apartment building.
And the apartments near me have them just behind the complex, usually under the overhang from the roof. If you have a balcony or whatever, it'll be just below/next to that. Most apartments are only 2-3 floors anyway, and there's plenty of horizontal space to fit one per unit, or ideally you just include HVAC into the rent so you don't need as many units. The apartment I lived in had trees next to it, so they stuck them between the trees and the complex.

Sure, if you're downtown or something, but my understanding is that most people don't live downtown, but instead just outside of urban areas.

This guy's European roof looks better than the prettiest American houses
Is that a European roof? I haven't seen corrugated iron anywhere there, but then again, I haven't been everywhere in Europe.

The OP is about a different country, it's possible 'most people' in that place do live 'downtown'.
But even if it's not most, still there's a whole lot of people in every country who live in bigger density situations, often there is no ground level outside space free for new installations. -

lol. you failed to fully grasp what the other comments were getting at, and still you went in strong with a confident and aggressive tone. I commend you
I wouldn't want to assume, but do you identify as American by any chance?

Do these pe*ple not know window units exist???

Those only really work for American style up down windows. In Germany and most eu countries a different style are used. They are hinged on both the bottom and the side and you can choose which set of hinges to use. Very useful but not compatible with American style window AC units. If you google for “German window” you’ll see the memes.
