Circular grille was a Fedders trademark I think. Or hallmark.
Didn't Norge own Fedders back in the day? | ||

Looks a lot like a Fedders "casement window" A/C I used to have. Probably from the 1970s. | ||

IDK the brand but that darn thing is horrible to my taste. What? a window a/c that big? It may be the best a/c ever made in the world, it may last forever, people could offer me money to have that in my windows, but I'd still prefer a modern one that remains almost flat agaisnt the window. LOL But if you like it, if it will make you happy and it it works, who am I to say something negative about it? Go get it NOW! | ||

Looks like a Fedders casement unit. I had one in one of my houses years ago. Worked quite well. Has a fan for the evaporator and one for the condenser. Check the link for pictures of the Fedders and an interesting Westinghouse unit.

The two that my grandmother had fit exactly in place of a pane of glass in a steel casement window. Steel casement windows all had the same glass opening, regardless of the manufacturer. The overall windows were the result of multiples of these "units" - horizontally and vertically. Typically, a casement window two panes wide was 36". The vertical dimensions of the pane was about 12", so the heights were whole feet. My grandmother had one in her bedroom and one in a dining room window. I don't remember any kind of filler required other than what the window unit provided.

Hi ..
The Fedders casement AC was designed to fit in one pane of glass in a casement window. In my case, the window was three panels. Two crank open casement type with a center non movable the same size. The AC was placed in the bottom pane of the non moving center section. It worked rather well. Harry | ||

Usually, the window gets damaged..
My loud doctor BIL, his parents house has 3 units where whoever installed the room air conditioners destroyed the windows. There were casement windows that would be very expensive to replace with the same style. I may end up installing sliding windows if I get this job. 3 units will then be replaced with central air conditioning. I have seen the units referred to above and they are UGLY!
