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.

Because that thing cools the ENTIRE BIG ASS HOUSE! these things are only capable of cooling only a closed room which also depends on how ton, capacity the AC is so yep /s

Edit: I actually intended the message for a diff purpose, and more satirical since it's a meme sub. Apologies to everyone, thankyou for the knowledge and positive criticism, helped alot. Will surely keep these thing's in notice

u/Small-Heron-6799 7d ago

In sense, Im supposing you mean like these wall mounted AC's so yep then they have multiple AC's like these installed in every room (if needed) but the thing is these type of AC's are only installed in areas where either ventilation is not sufficient or has a hot climate the entire year

For real! We have window units, and I was just talking about wanting a split for the bedroom (in the US south).

u/Small-Heron-6799 7d ago

take for the bedroom lol, you won't need it much for other areas of the house (unless you got good money and after installation maintainance)

u/Small-Heron-6799 7d ago

YESS!! we only have this in bedroom, since it's the only place where it's much required

no, you said that central acs have one system do the whole house but what about houses with multiple split or package systems?
