Those big fans presumably generate a lot of noise. Wouldn’t want that under a window, or anywhere near the property, to be honest.There's no reason why it should look like that. A ventilated wooden cover would be fine, and they work just as well turned by 90 degrees and parked under the window. Or higher up, above a bay, or indeed in the back garden.
If it's not affixed to an external house wall, vibration / noise won't be an issue.
Have you ever experienced living next to one ? I doubt it from your assertion.
I invented something very similar with lego at the age of 12, I reasoned that you could link the front and back axles of a car with a lossy elastic band and hey presto almost perpetual motion.The fact that it stopped dead after an inch of running was of great consternation to meWell, there was a chap on here a few months ago who thought that you could have a battery powered car that would generate electricity from the non driven wheels by means of a dynamo, which would then recharge the battery.
I've been working on something that could be the solution. It may seem simplistic, perhaps as though I've missed something essential, but hear me out...
Old units were a lot noisier but the new ones are much quieter, so hopefully a new install would not be a problem.
Maybe already covered upthread, but if we are to ramp up nuclear fission reactors as an energy resource, where is the additional Uranium going to come from? The current mines can’t meet the demand from existing reactors.
As others have said, it's just domestic AC. The fan is no noisier than the one in my office. The compressor is AC running with the hot end indoors and the cold end outdoors.Those big fans presumably generate a lot of noise.
