Are you saying 24,000 BTUs? That's a rather large unit - larger than I was discussing.

My friends , when it gets hot down here 24k btu ain't to big , hell 1,000k btu wouldn't be to big , my mom had this crysler ( i shit you not !!) 220 vac air conditioner , I don't have ANY idea of the btu's but that bad boy would cool an entire 2000 sq foot house in NO TIME FLAT !!! I swear it would cause frost on you after a shower !!!!!!!!

24,000 BTUs = 2 tons. That's what I've got cooling my entire 2100 square foot townhouse. A split unit, not a through-the-window/wall.

Granted it's completely inadequate and I'm putting in a 3 ton, but still, that's pretty darned big for a window unit. No surprise it's noisy. Maybe a split unit would be a better choice... but then, that'll run you in the thousands, with ductwork, etc.
