A single-unit air conditioner may include a housing, an outdoor heat exchanger assembly, an indoor heat exchanger assembly, a compressor, and a front panel. The housing may define an outdoor and indoor portion between a first lateral panel and a second lateral panel. The outdoor heat exchanger assembly may be disposed in the outdoor portion. The indoor heat exchanger assembly may be disposed in the indoor portion. The compressor may be in fluid communication with the outdoor heat exchanger assembly and the indoor heat exchanger assembly. The front panel may be slidably disposed on the housing at the indoor portion. The front panel may extend from a first lateral end to a second lateral end. The first lateral end may be selectively engaged with the first lateral panel. The first lateral end may include a lateral ridge directed inward toward a complementary attachment tab formed on the first lateral panel.

A saddle window air conditioner includes an interior casing and an exterior casing. A chaseway extends between the interior casing and the exterior casing. A first sleeve of the chaseway is slidably received within a second sleeve of the chaseway such that a length of the chaseway between the interior casing and the exterior casing is adjustable by sliding the first sleeve within the second sleeve. A mounting bracket is mountable at a window. The mounting bracket includes a support leg, a lift foot slidably mounted to the support leg, and a spring coupled to the lift foot. The lift foot is connectable to the exterior casing. The spring urges the lift foot and the exterior casing upwardly on the support leg when the mounting bracket is positioned in the window and the lift foot is connected to the exterior casing.
