Air Condition Weak after roof gasket replaced

Had a leak evidently caused by a faulty gasket in the air conditioner. It was replaced and solved. Now, the air conditioner is not doing the job. No air at all in the bedroom and weak in the living area. Not even hot here right now and it's basically the same inside as out. (Florida) It's dehumidifying....lots of water running off the roof but not much cooling.
What did the tech do...or not do to cause this?

Sounds like the ducts are blocked. Look to see if the baffle that separates hot from cold air is blocking the ducts.

yeah, I'd take off the inner shroud/cover for a look.
guesses:
they left some sort of opening between the filtered intake air and the discharge...so some of the cooled air is looping right back into the AC

The outlets into the roof ducts are either blocking or leaking

maybe somehow leaking to the outside?

I'm thinking something didn't get hooked in or matched up when they dropped the unit back onto the new gasket. I didn't see anything but didn't take anything apart....went to CW for the warranty to take care of it. Let's see what they find.
