Really? A google search for “sheds with windows” brings back a lot of them. And my dad’s blacksmithing shed had a window.

Of course, an air conditioner doesn’t need a full-featured window. It just needs a hole in the wall that will support the weight and can be weather-sealed.

But I know, because I used to bid these out and manage contractors putting them in, they are definitely not “economical” unless you’re quite well heeled. :-)
