That's what I have. It's either an 8K or 10K BTU unit (forget which). Installed in a bedroom window. I have a box fan on the floor between the bedroom and living room to circulate the cool air through out the apartment. Works perfectly. :-+
Up to about 10K BTU you can operate it off 120V mains. Larger than that requires a 240V tap. You guys would certainly have the advantage here since you are 240V

Actually, GE makes a 14K BTU unit that runs on 120V @ 15A. The blower motor failed and we got one of these to cool the main living areas for the furry family members for 3 days before we were able to get the house AC repaired. It covered about 700 ft2

No it's not. I'm with Bd on that one. In fact...see pix.
Perhaps the a hole is actually me. If that's the case then so be it. :-+

In other news... picked up a Pioneer VSX-917V DTS receiver today from CL for 30 clams with a eukered HDMI board... I didn't have the heart to try and dicker even a bit, as the remote's worth that on fleaBay and I can always just use it via TOSLINK. Got home, committed some Guugle-Fu; www.umlib.com FTW with Owners & Service Manuals, plus complete schizzmatics for FREE.
Suh-Weet!
Okies... past midnight, time for me to turn into a pumpkin as I have a work order tomorrow.

"Tuesday." That's as good a answer as any I could give you.

Thanks for the manual repository link. Can never have enough sources for manuals.

I was thinking of fungi. What did you do with the rowan? I only know of one thing: rowan and crab apple jelly, which is delicious with game.
BTW, beware "going back", whether psychological, geographical, or financial. It rarely works because you are a different person, and everything else has changed.
In my ignorance, I would have thought Suffolk was less monotonous.

Rowan wine. Stuff is like drinking tasty petrol. Made it a few times. Also cider.
@specmaster: not literally off the side of the main road. About 500m off it.
I’m not “going back” with any memories as such. The plan is basically a retirement foothold measure. Suffolk, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire depending on what is available. There’s a sweet spot band across there where it’s less crap than the surrounding areas and allows me to expand floor space and land which allows the procurement of larger and probably more dangerous toys :)

In this case the hole is in my head.
I was attempting, and totally failing, to imply that many fenlanders don't come across as entirely human.
There's the infamous notation on doctors' notes: NFN, or "normal for norfolk" implying that the patient has a limited intellect. I'm sure there's the equivalent for the fens.
