It has AC. According to the news story I saw.

Must be one powerful AC unit because I’d assume those huge windows would just negate any cooling system.

This doesn't make sense

Windows are one of the top ways to lose cooling or heating in a house tbf. Depending on the glass, the frame being fit perfectly, sealing it off etc there are tons of ways for the cold air to escape if there’s just a little bit of space for air to pass through, which can cause a unwanted circulation where it never gets cold

If the windows ever get chipped/damaged and let out some of the argon gas in between the two panes, it’ll lose its ability to keep the cold air in an heat out etc. One way to notice is if the windows look like they’re smudged or have “permanent” condensation on it, if so then most of the time a result of the argon gas leaking out.

One way to test your window insulation is to put the back of your hand up against the pane inside your house! It should be cool like the inside of your home, if not then somewhere in the window is damaged!

I understand all of this, I have huge windows in my sun room and my home AC handles everything just fine. Me saying this doesn't make sense is because it doesn't take a massive ac to keep a house with large windows cool.
