It is appalling to know that crimes happen right under our noses but yet there isn't much we can do to avoid/prevent them. Air-conditioning units are meant to be placed outside of a house of an office which has been a norm since. Thus, we cannot possibly lock them up or chain them like a bicycle to its post right? It is terrible that these criminals would go to the extent of robbing such heavy equipment which requires lifting that uses strength and effort! Maybe next we could even see cars being lifted off from our driveway. http://www.lift-all.com
