A system running but not cooling almost always comes down to charge, airflow, or a failing component — we test all three.
A tech who explains superheat and subcooling readings instead of just saying 'it's low on freon'.

Turned out to be a slow leak at the schrader valve — they found it with dye, fixed it, and recharged properly.
Outdoor unit had ice forming on the copper line which I'd never seen before.
Condenser fan had completely stopped and the compressor was still trying to run.
Mini-split in the sunroom was throwing a code I couldn't find online.

A full diagnostic checks all three before we touch the refrigerant charge.
Turn the system off, set the fan to run, and call — running a frozen coil makes the underlying problem worse.
Every system has a manufacturer-specified charge amount — we don't top off blind, we charge to spec using superheat/subcooling readings.
Yes, though R-22 supply is limited and increasingly expensive — we'll be upfront if a repair-versus-replace conversation makes more financial sense.
