It may only cool one room but at least you will have a comfortable night’s sleep. Even if you can get a tech to come out they may not have the part you need available. Plan ahead and just as a flashlight is a blessing when the lights go out at night, a portable AC unit will be worth the $300 it is likely to cost you. You will be thankful.

That's actually very good advice. I wish I had a portable when my A/C went out and needed to be replaced entirely.
I also find the location of the thermostat to be critical as it needs to be more in the center of the house not near the garage or front door.
