ARI Heating & Cooling: Reliable HVAC Repair Serving Anoka 55303

In our climate, improper installation often means incorrect refrigerant charge or airflow. This makes the system work harder, causing the evaporator coil to get too cold. Moisture then freezes on it, backing up as ice on the outdoor unit. We correct these installation errors to ensure efficient operation and prevent winter ice buildup.

First, turn the system off to prevent damage. The ice is often a symptom of an underlying issue like low refrigerant or a dirty filter. Don't chip at the ice. Call ARI Heating & Cooling. We'll safely thaw the unit, diagnose the root cause—which may be related to the original installation—and fix it to prevent recurrence.

A system that's too large will short-cycle, turning on and off frequently without properly dehumidifying your home. This inefficiency stresses components and can contribute to icing problems. A system that's too small runs constantly, driving up bills and failing on the coldest or hottest days. We perform precise load calculations to ensure your new system is perfectly sized for lasting comfort and efficiency.
