Window air conditioner units should be removed from a window for the winter, mainly to cut back on cold drafts but also to prolong the life of the air conditioner. The best place to store an A/C unit is in the basement, not the garage.
After removing the unit, you can also clean the air conditioner by taking it outside, removing the cabinet and spraying down the insides with a garden hose (or follow the manufacturer's suggestions).
When ready to store, place the air conditioner in a large plastic bag - such as a heavy-duty trash bag - to keep it dust free. Put it on blocks up off of the floor, especially if you tend to get water in your basement. Be careful not to damage the fragile coils or fins.
If removal is impractical, wrap the exterior of the unit in a canvas or plastic bag made for air conditioners to lessen drafts and protect the unit. These bags are available at home improvement stores. You may also need to seal the interior of the window with a weather-stripping kit to further prevent drafts. Most adhere to the window via an adhesive strip or are melted on with a heat source such as a hair dryer.
In mild southern climates, such as Florida, Texas and coastal California, window air conditioners may be left in place the year 'round, although you may want to cover them as described above.

The window air conditioner does not have to be on the window. It just has to be in proximity to the window. The vent pipes and fans work best if there is an opening on the wall.
There is no such product as an air conditioner window. However, you can buy a used window air conditioner on eBay or Craigslist. You can also check the classifieds in the local newspaper.

The best option for installing an air conditioner is to probably go to a local department store and buy an energy efficient window air conditioning unit. You can install those yourself easily.
