Blog Title: are window air conditioner dangerous?

Main Que: I have a really small shop located on the second floor of a strip mall, I am looking to get a window air conditioner, are they dangerous for the people walking by downstairs?

Answer: Not really. The idea of window air conditioner falling through a window over a car is just a myth in the movies or advertisements. If you have done your job correctly (or your hvac contractor), a secured window air conditioner will stick to your window like a bug to a windshield, it wont budge. So no, window air conditioners are not dangerous.
