Start with the filter and return path
A clogged filter, blocked return grille, closed vents, or furniture in front of airflow paths can make a system look weaker than it is. If the filter is dirty or the return is blocked, note that before you text.

Weak AC airflow is not just a comfort problem.
Weak airflow can make the house feel humid, make the AC run longer, and hide the real cause of a no-cool complaint. A few quick details help Scott decide whether this starts as a tune-up or a diagnostic.
Look at whether the problem is one room or the whole house
One hot room can point toward airflow balance, duct, insulation, or room load issues. Weak air across the whole house can point toward restriction, blower performance, a dirty coil, or a system problem that needs the $95 Springfield Diagnostic.
Choose the right first visit
If the AC still cools but airflow feels restricted, the Outdoor AC Tune-Up can be a practical first look at the outdoor unit and basic operation. It starts at $80 in Springfield. If the house is not cooling, the coil is freezing, or the blower sounds wrong, start with the diagnostic instead.
