Is there a window air conditioner in the UK, similar to US-style units?

So you know nothing and don't want to learn anything and are rude to anyone who want to help you out of your ignorance. What an asset to society you are.

I, for one, am enjoying the nostalgic phpBB throwback. Brb, off to start a flamewar with another messageboard.

I have bought a window ac from Alibaba, they are usually around 200-300, these models are usually china specific so the power is compatible

Most windows in the UK open the wrong way for those type of units to work.

Though there are units like this available which probably workable on most windows with a bit of thought: https://www.diy.com/departments/prem-i-air-5000-btu-mobile-split-air-conditioner-with-app-control-white/5021196887522_BQ.prd#search_term_redirect=Prem%20air%205000

Typically we don't have the same kind of sliding up windows that are common in the US, which means units like the one pictured don't work here.

You can buy portable AC units that have window sealers and a hose that sticks outside which does pretty much the same thing.

These are rare, but there are plenty of ‘portable’ AC units that put a hose out the window with a sheet of plastic to block the hole.

Sash windows arn’t uncommon here, but maybe they’re not built to take the weight. Maybe no one for a market for 3 days a year.

I've seen them marketed at caravans and outbuildings in that style or similar, take a look at b & q website https://www.diy.com/departments/prem-i-air-5000-btu-mobile-split-air-conditioner-with-app-control-white/5021196887522_BQ.prd
