First, check your air filter. A clogged filter is a common culprit that restricts airflow and reduces cooling efficiency, especially during Alabama's intense summers. If it's dirty, replace it.

If the problem persists, it could be a refrigerant issue, a faulty compressor, or a failing capacitor—all of which require a professional HVAC technician from RE Michel to diagnose and repair safely.
