Air con compressor replacement cost

The air con unit in our loft bedroom has stopped cooling and I reckons it's the compressor. Is it worth replacing or should we just get a new unit?

"If it is the compressor by the time you get a new 1 plus to install you’ll be able to get a new 1 so my bet is get a new 1 mate"
