✓
Poor airflow. Closed vents, blocked returns or a weak blower let the coil get too cold.
✓
Dirty filter. The most common cause of poor airflow.
✓
Low refrigerant. A leak drops the coil pressure and temperature below freezing.
✓
Dirty evaporator coil. Dust on the coil stops heat transfer.
✓
Turn the AC off at the thermostat. Set the fan to ON to help thaw the coil.
✓
Replace the filter.
✓
Open supply vents and clear return grilles.
✓
Put towels down. Melting ice can overflow the drain pan.
✓
Let the coil thaw fully, which can take several hours, before you turn cooling back on.
Do not chip or scrape ice off the coil. The fins and tubing are easy to damage.
If the coil freezes again after a new filter and full thaw, call. Repeat freezing usually means low refrigerant or a blower problem. Running a frozen AC can damage the compressor. In Parker, Colorado, the dry air hides moisture problems, so ice is often the first sign anything is wrong.
A contractor can check airflow, measure refrigerant pressure and look for a leak if the charge is low.
