Mama and Daddy had a Sears Coldspot window unit A/C they bought in 59 when they bought the house we grew up in. It was a "3 ton" window unit. It cooled the whole house without breakin a sweat and even cycled the compressor on the hottest of days. When Mama got bad off with cancer, about 1981, they put central heat and air in. It took three BIG dudes to take that window unit out and they had trouble with it. It was still workin fine, but Mama and Daddy's bedroom was on the opposite end of the house and on the west side. Daddy didn't want to take a chance on Mama gettin too hot since she was pretty much bed ridden so they decided for the Central heat and air.
