My A/C is blowing, but it isn't blowing cold air. I think I need to get it repaired.

4 yr old house hvac system. Tenant's did not replace air filter for over 6 months use, so the coil is covered in dust and the blower is not working due to excessive dust buildup. How much to replace blower and clean out coil?

There are plenty of factors that affect the efficiency of your home air conditioning system -- the size of the unit, placement, SEER rating etc. investing in a residential air conditioner is an expensive proposition, and so, it makes sense to put that money down on a newer more energy efficient unit that can save you money on energy bills. If you have an older residential AC, you will find that replacing it with a new AC can offer greater energy efficiency than merely conducting expensive repairs every couple of months.
If you are considering purchasing a new residential AC, make sure that you buy one that's the right size for your home. An air conditioner that's too small will not be able to cool quickly, and you may need to have the system switched on throughout the day, even on those days when the cooling requirement is not that high. This drags down your energy efficiency. On the other hand, a home air conditioning unit that's too small is likely to run in short intermittent cycles, switching itself on and off whenever the desired room temperature is reached. A small AC can also increase humidity levels inside the home, and create damp conditions that foster the growth of mold. Where you place your AC can also make a difference to the energy efficiency of your house air conditioning unit. For instance, placing a unit on a window ledge with foliage and plants clustered around the back of the unit can drag down energy efficiency. You'll also need to make a call on whether a central air conditioning unit or split system is a right fit for your home.
