Time to replace A/C

Question

My Brisk Air is now 9 years old and needs to be replaced. My question is if I go to a Brisk Air II will my current Single zone thermostat still work. If I decide to go with another brand, what are the ramifications of installing a different thermostat with the existing low voltage stat wiring?

Finally, what unit looks to be the best 13.5 at this time.

I would upgrade to a 15K modern 15's use about the same amount of power and give you more cool.   You will need to check but with a single zone odds are fantastic your existing stat will work.  however they are not 100%.

When you replace a Brisk air- you are only replacing the upper unit. The tstat and controls are separate from the upper unit and will work with your new replacement. Doug

I put a Atwood Air Command on our trailer.  Thermostat is built in and you have a remote control to adjust if you can not reach the control panel on the AC itself. Only wiring needed was the Pos,Neg and Ground.

When I replaced my Dometic AC on my Class B I went with their high efficiency unit which they do not seem to advertise.  It is great and I can run it with my Honda 2000 if needed.
