Installation & the rules that apply
This is a window unit. No EPA Section 608 technician is needed: the refrigerant circuit is factory-sealed and never opened. A plug-in window unit needs no permit, so the friction is with your building rather than the government. Many HOAs restrict window units on appearance grounds, though an HOA regulating how you mount one stands on much firmer ground than one banning cooling outright. Landlords can set conditions, and the falling hazard is taken seriously: New York City, for instance, requires window units to be supported by brackets or mounting rails, and many building insurers and HOAs now require a bracket regardless of city.
