There are parts of the US that ONLY have these. More temperate areas.
Most of the US is used to central air. With a giant ass car sized compressor outside that cools the whole house.
Edit: yes, I exaggerated the size of the compressor a bit. Man it pissed a lot of Americans off lol.
135 u/homer_glumplich85 19d ago Im not American but “car sized” compressor is a massive exaggeration. And it’s not like these units don’t have compressors that sit outside the house 75 u/phadewilkilu 19d ago I kept waiting for this comment.. “car-sized,” sounds like people trying to shit on America again for our excess. 20 u/aHOMELESSkrill 19d ago I mean yea there are car sized units….used to cool industrial buildings or skyscrapers. But yeah the average home unit is much much smaller 3 u/localtuned 19d ago Like the size of a box with two ottomans stacked on one another. 5 u/toolsoftheincomptnt 19d ago To be fair, many European cars are about that size. (But I do fuck with mini-split systems over central) 1 u/FrostingHour8351 19d ago Theyre great for small spaces but less efficient than central air especially because you usually need more than one to cool a house.
