Frozen AC Coil Repair in Sale Creek, TN
Frozen AC coil repair in Sale Creek, TN begins with turning the cooling off. If you see ice on the copper line outside or frost on the indoor coil, running the AC longer only builds more ice and can send liquid refrigerant back to the compressor. Set the thermostat to OFF and the fan to ON to start the thaw.
A coil freezes when it gets too cold, and that happens for two main reasons. Low airflow is the first: a clogged filter, closed supply registers, a dirty evaporator coil or a weak blower motor lets the coil temperature drop below 32 degrees. Low refrigerant charge is the second, because a system that is short on refrigerant runs lower suction pressure and a colder coil.
Our crew checks both. We measure static pressure across the air handler, inspect the evaporator face for matted dust and pet hair, and put gauges on the system to read suction pressure and superheat. When the coil is dirty, we clean it with a non acid coil cleaner. When the charge is low, we go hunting for the (/services/refrigerant-leak-repair).
Melting ice also floods the drain pan, so we check the drain line too. Call (866) 703-1217.
