Narrow window air conditioners, otherwise known as casement window air conditioners, are specially designed to fit in a window vertically rather than horizontally. These units are only usable if you have vertical sliding windows or casement windows. Otherwise, you are better off getting a conventional window unit. If a casement window air conditioner is what you need for your space, there aren’t a ton of options. Here are 4 of the limited models to choose from.
