There are two air conditioning units which are the usual height and the down a few feet on the outside of our brick church, are the electrical and gas meters which are more vertical. Any ideas on how to camouflage in a manner that will hold up and not need to be replaced for sometime. Also, lattice is not an option. Thanks for your advice, E.J.

Picket Fence sections. There was a project recently where someone put posts up with hooks so the sections are removable.
I would use free pallets and paint them to match the house or foundation or both. They are easy to brace and cover the units. Another use is lattice that is vinyl, as it does not have to be painted and comes in a variety of colors for you to choose. Here are a couple ideas I found. If you want to see more, click on "explore projects" then "build" then type "a/c unit covers" and hit enter.

the answer in my town is you don't, the ac units need un restricted air flow to function properly.
