This page is for residential cooling problems where the system still responds but the home is not getting cold air. ACRepair.ca helps organize the request and connect it with available HVAC service options when possible.

What to include in the request

A useful AC not cooling request explains whether air is coming from the vents, whether the outdoor unit is running, and when the problem started.

If the system cools a little but cannot keep up, include the thermostat setting, indoor temperature, and whether some rooms are worse than others.

Is the air warm, room temperature, or slightly cool?
Does the outdoor unit start when cooling is called?
Did the issue start after a power outage, filter change, or heat wave?

Common causes

Warm air can come from airflow restrictions, thermostat settings, frozen coils, electrical issues, low refrigerant, dirty coils, or a failing part.

ACRepair.ca does not diagnose the system online, but collecting these details makes provider follow-up more useful.

When it may be urgent

No-cooling problems can become urgent during heat waves, for seniors, infants, medical needs, condos with limited airflow, or homes where indoor temperatures rise quickly.

If the request is time-sensitive, select the correct urgency in the form and include any comfort or safety concerns.
