Pete's Heating & Air Conditioning | Local HVAC Repair in Wisconsin Rapids, WI

Ice buildup is common here due to our cold, humid winters. It often happens during the defrost cycle, but excessive ice can mean issues with refrigerant levels, a faulty defrost control board, or blocked airflow. It's important to address it quickly to prevent damage to the fan and coils. Our technicians can diagnose the exact cause and get your system back to normal operation.

Yes, that's a strong possibility in our climate. When critical components like the evaporator coil or reversing valve freeze, your system can't transfer heat properly. This could be due to low refrigerant, a dirty air filter restricting airflow, or a problem with the defrost cycle. Don't ignore it—call us for a diagnosis to restore heat and prevent further system strain.

A fall tune-up is your best defense. We'll clean coils and components, check refrigerant levels, test the defrost cycle and controls, inspect insulation on lines, and ensure proper airflow. This proactive service helps your system run efficiently and reliably through our toughest winters, saving you from emergency no-heat calls and costly repairs.
