Its not the temp of the air coming out that matters; its the DIFFERENTIAL that you measure.

It should be between 20 and 30 degrees colder than what is going in.

When you turn it on and its 95 degrees in there you would expect 70-75 degree air coming out. As it keeps lowering the ambient temp, it will keep cooling the room down until it hits the thermostat set point.

If the door was getting opened much or a side was facing west, sounds normal.
