That is pretty neat. I have a feeling however if an air conditioner was roof mounted it would not be as easy to lift with one hand as shown in the video hehe...

If the roof is 100 or 120 pounds, and it is spring assist to lift, then you can just install additional spring assist to lift the 97 pound air conditioner. .
Or do what A-Liner does and install a package terminal air conditioner in the counter someplace, and it does not lift with the roof. Look up PTAC and you can see how they are built. While most are 220 volts, you can get them in 120 or find a window air conditioner that does not take in air from the sides, but instead takes in air from the back wall, and blows out the back as well.
It is easy enough to overcome the air conditioner problem.
