FYI: my windows have metal frames. Thanks for your help, Dawn While we haven't done it personally, we've had many clients and friends who have. Most of them have hired help, but you can totally do it yourself if you are handy and have help with the lifting, etc. The main thing is that the unit has to be attached to your window frames (screws), which is a little trickier with metal frames, but definitely doable. Metal screws will go into metal. Also the window below has to be propped to stay snug up against the machine. It can be screwed into place itself or propped from the outside.

Compared to central air, window units are relatively inexpensive, and definitely worth the investment. If this is your first time buying a window air conditioner, make sure to measure the window you plan to put it in-- air conditioners come in many different sizes. Also keep in mind that a north-facing window will provide better airflow. Make sure that the window is close to a grounded 3-prong outlet, or buy an extension cord made specifically for air conditioners. Anything else could overload your circuit. When selecting a unit, remember that more space means you’ll want an AC with a higher BTU. If the unit is not as wide as the window, make sure it has side panels that can extend on both sides to cover up the gaps. Before you prepare to install the unit, check your lease. Some management companies require window units to be professionally installed. If that’s the case, and this is your first time buying a window AC, consider purchasing it from somewhere that offers free installation.
