Well Jeff .................. Hang a 5500 BTU in the window yourself
before you speak.
I've got a window hanger unit made by GE and 5500 is barley enough to
keep you cool on 90 degree nights in un-insulated Westy, with the Pop-Top
down.
I don't care about the math.
I'm working off Murphy's Law and until you actually been there / done
that you're just quoting Uncle Remus.
