Frequently Asked Questions

Should I keep running my AC if the coil is frozen?

No — turn it off immediately. Running it forces the compressor to work without proper refrigerant flow and can damage it permanently.

How long does a frozen coil take to thaw?

Typically 1-2 hours with the fan on. Don't chip or melt the ice manually.

Will my AC be fine once it thaws?

The thaw doesn't fix the underlying problem. It will freeze again without professional repair.
