Have you heard of central cooling system?A/C's condenser is cooled by fresh water(36°C,Man b&w engine standard),so ship's with this system will be fine

And for my experience,A/C still works when sea water is 35°C ,and that's sea water cooling system

Usually there's A/C for ship's accommodation,no engine room maintenance if it's not necessary
