Why does my AC freeze up in Southwest Florida summer heat?
AC coils freeze when airflow is restricted by dirty air filters, failing blower motors, or when refrigerant levels drop due to a leak. In SWFL humidity, moisture quickly turns to ice on the coils. Turn the system off and schedule an inspection with a licensed pro.
What to do next
