We installed an aircon on the ground floor and since hot air rises and cool air sinks, there was no need for any partition/doors btw the ground and 2nd floor.
Not sure about condos. I've never lived in a penthouse. But it would make sense that the penthouse is the hottest. There is direct sunlight onto the roof which will radiate through into the house.

it keeps the sun/heat out but still maintains the transparency...
My second floor unit at the Medley in Lor G is super breezy, books will fly ard and the hotter the day the more breezy.
So lower floor breezy, higher floor hot due to sun,hot air etc.
