I'm trying to figure out where we would need to locate an A/C to meet bylaw requirements. I keep seeing and hearing different requirements. We have a half duplex and the question is do we install it on the side of the house or at the rear?
We have ample space to install at the side but we only have that one side as entry to the back yard (plus the alley). The city only says "A/C units may only project 1.0m into the side setback" and says nothing about how much space is required to the property line. I've seen everything from 0.2m (we would be able to meet this) to 1.2m (we cannot meet this) for space from the A/C to the property line, so it's very confusing. Looks like I can utilize the bulkhead to access the backyard but it would be a bit more of an involved install versus the side of the house.
