Two things to check:
If it is mounted in a slide be sure the fans are working:
Check your drain hoses for cracks. At 7 years they are probably brittle and falling apart. Open drain hoses allow warm air inside and you will have a big problem keeping things cold in the heat.
If your drain hoses are bad try to replace them with some decent clear tubing from Lowes etc. You might have to slide the refer out to get to them but if they are bad it may be necessary.
In some cases you can find tubing that will slide over the rotten parts. Just cut those out and carefully slide some clear tubing either over or inside the old stuff. A bit of tape or silicon to make a bit of a seal might help.
When you have time be sure to replace all of the tubing.
