Where can I buy an air conditioning compressor?

Question

Where can I buy an air conditioning compressor? I mean what sort of thing should I look for in the yellow pages? Not an automobile AC compressor, just a 120 volt one for a window unit.

Answer 3

Firstly, the cost of a compressor is extremely high. Secondly, you would have to have the unit charged with freon. This is much to much.  Why not just buy a new window AC unit?  You can get a very inexpensive unit from Walmart, Zellers, Rona etc. when in season for probably the same cost as replacing the compressor.  Check it out.
