easier to warm up than cool down imo

Clothes-wise sure, we put it 100W at rest, we need only capture that.

I really don't get why you can still buy cooling-only air conditioners when any heat pump can work just as well in either direction

Every aircon should heat or cool the indoor space as required

Then it becomes easy to cool or warm at ~400% efficiency

As s far as window units go, one of the biggest losses is in insulation around the window.

Those that have window units do so because there's really no alternative.

Would bi-directional window-mount ACs be effective heaters, given how much loss a window unit sees through drafts?

If it works for cooling there's no reason it wouldn't work for heating. If they need to stand in the air path for cooling they will need to stand in the air path for heat

Autumn lovers >>> all other seasons

It’s barely a season though. Summer and winter are months long. Any place that actually gets something akin to autumn anymore, itonly lasts for like a few weeks. If that. There are two seasons: summer and winter. They just have barely discernible transition periods which more often than not amount to a few days of back and forth weather, from nice for a day or two, back to the previous seasons temps, then lurching forward to the next, then back and forth with some median-“season” days mixed in mid swing.

Yep, they fucked up the planet just to make more money. I’d rather buy an NFT made by an AI than give those people another penny, if I had a choice in the matter

You're not going to like the future then

That seems to be true on many subjects these days...

Summer Enjoyers when they get 8th degree burns on their face after they pass out onto the concrete from heat exhaustion.
