    Can I place a window AC in a In Wall Sleeve?
    Hello Everyone,

    This is my first post, forgive me for not being technically inclined. My question is simple, I recently moved into an apartment which has a In wall AC however it does not work. My question is, can I purchase a regular window AC with the same dimensions as the Wall AC to replace it? I noticed that the in wall AC are almost double in price than the window AC's of the same size and BTU. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks
