I noticed that my house ac is not working today. I checked the circuit breaker first, it was not tripped. The thermostat is on "cool". The blower is blowing. Outside, the air conditioner is doing nothing. The outside unit is just under 3 years old, still under warranty. Any simple things I can check before I call a pro?
