So I have travel trailer we bought new January of 2015. It came with a dometic brisk air 2. It cooled the coach just fine even in our Florida. No problems with it until I turn it on Sunday and no cold air.
So the tech came out today and did his tests and found it needs to be replaced. Said they had a bad batch of these models that were going bad. He calls dometic and they said they don't have any of my units available so they are sending me a High Performance model at no additional cost. The tech said this would push much more air and I should be thrilled.
So my question to you, should I be thrilled? Hard to find anything about the HP model in their website now, but found they used to have it. Looking at stats it doesn't look that much different in air movement.
I'm pretty sure you will be getting a US built product rather than the China built BriskAir II. They have had material quality issues on the China built units.

It is currently a 15k. The new will also be a 15k, but he called it a high performance model. Better than mine and moves more air. I just can't find where they make anything better at this time. If it is an older model of the High Performance, should I be worried or excited?
Searched and found nothing other than starts on the HP model they made. looks to be a model 541916.
I emailed demotic to verify and the tech said the unit would be here in a couple days as it was being shipped from SC.

The HP designation by Dometic is because they could not certify these units as 15 k BTU units. They are just slightly less than 15 k, so they call them HP models. You are getting a good deal. Air movement is about the same on all models. Doug
