AC Unit icing

[specialone0812]

We have a Carrier AC unit on second floor with icing problem around the tube in the unit outside. Temperature inside is 84 when we have it set at 76.
I have turned off the switch for the outside unit, also the switch for the condenser in the attic for the ice to melt and replaced all air filters.
What else should I do? Is this sth I can fix myself?
Thanks.

Needs to be cleaned and charged. Call a service company.

agreed. silver service is great company and a good customer of mine at the ac company i work for, reasonable prices and very good work.
a/c dang or buu-ahn a/c would also be great bets. good luck

I had similar problem. AC service replaced capacitor and recharge the Freon.

I spent some time yesterday to change all air filters, open and clean up the coils, flush the drain pipe with ChloroX and openthe drain pipe that connects to the drain pipe under bathroom cabinet and suck all the debris out using a shop vacuum,then recharge freon. Thanks to God we have cool air again.
