Why is my A/C or Air Conditioner Freezing Up?

A frozen Air-Conditioning Unit is common! Several common issues my cause your air conditioner to have frost on the copper refrigerant lines on the outdoor unit or on the indoor unit. Why? Here is a small list:

  • Filters are dirty and the air flow over the evaporator coil is being restricted.
  • A/C charge is low. Which means there is a possible leak!
  • A/C is over charged. Which means there is a root cause of a problem and a technician did not catch it or look for it!
  • Outdoor Fan is not working or the indoor fan is not working or both!
  • The outdoor coil or indoor coil is dirty and needs to be cleaned!
  • There is a restriction in the refrigerant lines or a faulty refrigerant metering device.
