Home Air Conditioner Stopped Blowing
If your air conditioner stops working and has no air flow the problem may be a frozen coil.
What should you do if you’re air conditioner freezes?
1 Turn the air conditioning off at the thermostat.
2 Check your filter. If the filter is filthy, throw it away and proceed to Step #4.
3 If not, you’ve probably got an issue that is going to require a trained AC professional.
4 Switch the Fan to the “On” position at the thermostat (leave the air conditioner turned to “Off”). This will help move more air across the frozen coil so it will thaw faster.
5 Now you can head to the store to get another filter.
6 When you get back home, visually inspect the outdoor copper lines and the indoor coil for ice. It can take a couple of hours for all that ice to thaw, so you may need to give it a little more time.
7 Put the new filter in, and turn the AC back on.
8 Keep a close eye on the system. If ice reappears, turn the air conditioner off and call a professional. If the system doesn’t start to cool the house down, turn the AC off and call your air conditioning repairman.

Good advice for homeowners with an air conditioning system that have frozen up. There really is only so far a homeowner, with limited technical training, can go troubleshooting their HVAC system. Other than inspecting and replacing air conditioning filters homeowners should probably not attempt an air conditioning repair.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very hard situation but thanks for the advice. Very important to know it first and be aware for this cause.
