What kind of klien bottle shit is this

They aren't standard in the US, but I promise you these windows exist here. My parents installed them in their home

[–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 2 points 9 months ago (3 children)

While I agree that our windows are generally superior from a functional perspective, the Americans have us beat in the fact that you can't install a window AC unit in our windows.

Hence we get to just die in the increasingly common heat waves. Not great - we've got to figure this one out.

Before portable ACs are mentioned - I'll point out that they have terrible efficiency, and connecting the tube to blow out the hot air is still terrible with European windows.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (13 children)

Mini split heat pumps.

All you need is a 3cm hole in the wall to run a refrigerant line from the outside heat pump unit to the wall unit.

Window AC units are pretty poor efficiency too, IIRC

Unfortunately windows in the UK generally cant tilt, likely since opening them wasn't really meant to be common anyways (unfortunately climate change is making that more important)

[–] GluWu@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago (11 children)

In America we have to keep our windows closed to keep out the fent smoke and bullets.

How well do these work in strong winds? Wouldn’t they just turn your light breeze into a strong breeze?

Ah, but that classic wood-on-wood sliding window, where all that stands between a destructive crash is an irreplaceable rope installed inside walls when the house was built.

[–] TheSanSabaSongbird@lemdro.id 2 points 9 months ago

They aren't that difficult to repair if you have basic carpentry skills. All you have to do is take the sash out and open the side of the frame and you'll have access to the weight and pulley. They're designed to be pretty easy to do. YouTube probably has hundreds of videos on it. You just want to be careful about lead paint if it's an old house and you're producing dust or disturbing old paint.

My windows can tilt. Not in the same way, but you can either slide them up or tilt them in. And besides, is being able to tilt your windows really that great?

Bruh many old homes in Europe don't have these fancy windows.

[–] lud@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, tilting and flipping and all all other crazy stuff is a fairly new thing .
