If you have 3 different supposed professionals look at your unit and they cannot get it to cool properly I suggest you get your money back from all of them since they did not fix your problem to start with. Then I would call a real professional and have a on site look see at what the problem really is.

This seems to happen to people all the time especially in mobile homes and if I were you I would not put up with it.

If you could post the check out sheet from one of the people that looked at your unit it will be a big help. There is no way we can just guess with the information you supplied. A example of the info needed below.

Condenser air entering temperature?
Condenser air leaving temperature?
Suction pressure?
Liquid line pressure?
Suction line temperature?
Liquid line temperature?
Type of refrigerant? R-22/R-410A etc.
Evaporator discharge air temperature?
Return air temperature (Dry bulb)?
Return air temperature(Wet bulb)?
Condenser fan in proper rotation?
Amp draw of outside unit while in operation?

Almost all reputable and knowledgeable HVAC contractors that service your unit should have this information posted on your invoice or available. They cannot possible service your unit without this information unless they are taking a guess at what the problem is and that is what has caused your problem to start with. ((3 different people taking a guess at what the problem is))

Once we have the information I am sure we can figure out the problem without guessing.
