Is it summer time and your A/C has been on 24-7? And now it's blowing hot air instead of cold? Here is the easiest and most likely solution.
Instructions
1. Go to the A/C until that is located inside the home. This is the large unit that distributes the air that comes in from the outside and then pushes it through the vents in each room.
2. Open up the closet, bring a flashlight and find the water pipes that are connected to it. They are usually small & copper. Feel them. Are they cold? Are the icy? Are they frozen? If yes, then move on to step 3.
3. Turn off the A/C. Pull out your A/C filter. Is it dirty? If yes, keep going.
4. Change filter. Then turn on the A/C "fan" switch from AUTO to ON. What has happened is the cold air that was being produced by the A/C until couldn't push the air through the vent because the filter was too dirty. Clogged. Thus creating a situation where the pipes that brought the cold water to the A/C got colder and colder until they froze.
5. Now you have to wait. The fan will help blow air through the system to warm up those pipes and slowly defrost them. This usually takes up to 12 hours. I highly suggest doing this overnight. When you can open your windows for cool air. By the morning your A/C should be working fine.
