Shut-off switches and breakers

We've had several calls about problems we were able to solve by phone.  
Partial power out in the house:  We have details in the Helpful Hints section of our website: How to check and/or reset circuit breakers.   With the hot weather, people have overloaded their circuits.  Resetting all the individual breakers often solves this. (It it makes noise and trips again, you have a serious problem for us to fix.)
No central a/c working:   Again in our Helpful Hints section, A/C checklist:   check all the shut-off switches: thermostat, top of the basement stairs, on the furnace/air handler.
