Frozen AC Coil Repair in Louisville, KY

Frozen AC coil repair in Louisville, KY 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.

Central AC Repair FAQs

Common questions about central AC repair

Questions we hear about Frozen AC Coil Repair in Louisville, KY.

Talk to our crew
Why is my central AC running but not cooling the house?
The usual causes are a clogged filter, a dirty outdoor condenser coil, low refrigerant from a leak, or a failed capacitor that has stopped the outdoor unit while the indoor blower keeps running. Our crew measures the temperature split across the indoor coil to narrow it down before we quote anything.
How much does central AC repair cost?
It depends on the part. A capacitor or contactor is a small repair. A refrigerant leak or a compressor is a much bigger one. We diagnose first, then give you the price before any work starts, so you decide with the number in front of you.
What does SEER2 mean for my repair or replacement?
SEER2 is the efficiency rating used for new central AC equipment since January 2023. Minimums differ by region, with higher minimums in the South and Southwest than in the North. It does not change how we repair your current system, but it matters if you are weighing repair against a new unit.
Can you just add refrigerant to my AC?
We can, but it rarely makes sense on its own. A central AC system is sealed, so low refrigerant means a leak. Topping it off without fixing the leak means the charge leaks out again. We find the leak, repair it and weigh in the correct charge.
How long does a central AC system usually last?
Many central air systems run 12 to 15 years with regular maintenance. Units near the coast, where salt air corrodes coils, and units in very long cooling seasons often wear out sooner. Age alone is not a reason to replace, but it factors into repair decisions.
