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.
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
What if I can't make a 3cm hole cuz I'm a rentoid?
Make a temporary 3cm hole
I rent and could install AC because it is a home improvement. You could ask if it is allowed.
I'm sure if you pay the AC unit yourself nobody will oppose lol
Rent a place with air con installed?
There are the freestanding air conditioners. They have a hose you put in the window. There are plastic seals you can buy that fit in the windows to seal off the exhaust. They aren't perfect but they are better than nothing.
And this is a thread about how those won't work with European windows
I live in Europe, have one, and they work just fine thank you. They just don't put the whole unit in the window. See here
That looks like shit
Wut
It’s the portable air conditioner window hose!
10/10 clarification
Okay but still beats having useless us style windows everywhere.
