First, before we go farther, the best way to determine if your current plumbing woe is a true emergency is if it feels like an emergency to you. Our Peaden Pros believe that if you think something is an emergency, it’s best to treat it as one. You won’t regret moving fast, and if you’re correct, you’ll prevent extensive damage (possibly even structural) and bigger repair costs in the long run.

Should I See Ice on My AC?

Monday, July 1st, 2024

If you notice ice forming on your air conditioning system, what’s your first reaction?

A shrug of the shoulders, then you move on with your day
“Oh good, it looks like AC is really doing it’s job!”
“Something’s wrong with the AC!”

If you answer “C,” then congratulations—you’ve figured out that ice isn’t something that should appear on your air conditioner. It’s easy to fall into the trap of answer “B,” because the chilled air that comes from an AC feels like it was cooled with ice. It wasn’t, however. The AC’s process of heat exchange (moving heat from inside the house to outside) shouldn’t create ice. If ice does form, you may need AC repair—and it’s best to find out as soon as possible if you do.
