Can I use a larger compressor?
The compressor in one of my window shakers died today. (No, not the one that I filled with R134A and propane. That one is still running great.) The unit is a Carrier 8000 BTU AC from the late 1990s. I went to turn it on, and the compressor won't start. However, I have a good 10,000 BTU compressor that I can put in. Would installing a 10,000 BTU compressor in an 8000 BTU AC be a problem? I know it'll draw more power, but will it still work okay? Thanks.
