FAQs
Q: Why is my AC freezing up in Washington?A: The two most common causes are low refrigerant from a leak and restricted airflow from a dirty filter or coil. Both prevent proper heat transfer at the evaporator coil.
Q: Should I turn off my AC if it's frozen in Washington?A: Yes. Switch to fan-only mode to thaw the coil before calling. Running the system while frozen can damage the compressor in Washington heat.
