I have an OEM rooftop air conditioner on my '76 Eleganza that is DOA. It simply quit one day while plugged in and makes no effort to do anything.Rear unit works fine.
I had a guy who knows a guy who works for a local air conditioning company come by and have a look at it and he said the motor was "shot." He could bypass things on the roof and make the motor come on but as soon as it got hot it quit. My question is, is it worth the time, effort and money to have the motor repaired or replaced or should I just bite the bullet and put on a new A/C? I have 2 rooftop airconditioners so I'm not desperate for at least a month or so, but this summer could be dicey. I need to have that unit fixed.
So, repair, replace with used (I think I have a "deal" in the works) or replace with new? Also, any feedback on the 13500BTU units that are heatpumps - not just heat strips. Seems a lot safer than using the furnace although we certainly have used the propane furnace plenty of times.
Thanks
