They’re also monstrously inefficient compared to mini splits even before you account for leaving a giant uninsulated hole in your wall with free movement of air between the inside and the outside.
I laugh every time I see one of these shoved in right below a brand new quadruple pane low-e argon filled latest ultra efficiency mega R value vinyl window. Yeah, the window is not where your air leak is, bro.
There shouldn’t be free movement of air with one of these. That defeats the whole purpose of it. If there’s actually airflow across, someone fucked up the installation.
Though, yeah, it’s not the most efficient setup. The only thing worse is a portable ac with a single vent hose.
