Yeah, the Balkans have had aircons since forever for this reason. Meanwhile dumbfuck boomers in Austria are blocking aircon installations because "it's not that bad", so we're stuck with portable versions. Which are louder and less efficient. They also refuse to have split system with central units on the roof which are very quiet, because hurr durr too expensive for only 3 months a year. People are so desperate right now they're willing to vote for anyone who runs their campaign on removing the law restricting aircon installations.
