Are window units available there? I found them to be great when I lived in a house without central AC. Just pop open a window and slide it in. Can get a basic one for less than $100 at walmart or lowes.
None of the windows here work with window units, they all cant outwards rather than sliding. Well, not all but they’re rare.
Oh yeah that would be tricky with a standard window unit. Maybe a floor unit with some type of triangle casing for the exhaust hose would work with those windows.
Yup, these exist, where you end up covering the awkwardly shaped opening in fabric and attaching the house to that shroud. Unfortunately, floor units are hideously inefficient. Better than nothing though.
