My central ac unit is not cooling down the house even though air is coming out from vents(i guess not cool enough air)

Is it likely a dirty filer?

Doesn't sound like a filter but it could be. Worth checking. Sounds more like low refrigerant.

Is the air coming out of the vents cold? Is the outside unit working?

Is the outside unit blowing air that is warmer than ambient air temperature?

Yup.

May very well be a filter. When was the last time it was changed? Have you had this issue before?

Nope. They just tell the builder that they will only look at the project in 4 years 7 months and 12 days.

Yeah, it’s probably your filter. I think it’s best to use 3 month filters and change every month or so.

Could be filter, capacitor, compressor, freon etc. Filter is a good place to start but likely other issues.
