AC not cooling your home? Describe what it's doing and LocalRepairLine will connect you with an independent heating and cooling contractor who serves your area and nearby towns. We are a referral service, not a contractor.
What to do first
Check that the thermostat is set to cool, the breaker hasn't tripped and the air filter isn't clogged. If the outdoor unit still doesn't run or the air stays warm, turn the system off to avoid damage and talk to a local AC pro who serves your area. They will find the fault and explain repair or replacement options; you decide.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find AC repair near me?
Call the number on this page. LocalRepairLine connects local homeowners with independent local cooling contractors. We are a referral service, not a contractor, and you decide whether to hire.
Why is my AC running but not cooling?
Common causes are a dirty filter, a dirty outdoor coil, a failed capacitor or low refrigerant. A cooling pro can test which it is.
Why is there ice on my AC?
Ice usually points to restricted airflow or low refrigerant. Turn the AC off, let it thaw, replace a dirty filter and call a pro if it returns.
Should I repair or replace an older AC?
A common rule of thumb is to weigh the repair against the unit's age and remaining life. The pro will explain both options; the decision is yours.
Do you repair AC units yourselves?
No. LocalRepairLine is an independent referral service. Independent contractors in your area do the work and set their own pricing after seeing the job.
