AC Frozen Coil · Seminole Heights · Tampa
A frozen evaporator coil in Seminole Heights looks like a solid block of ice on the copper line-set. Running the compressor while it's iced up can destroy it. Here's how to safely thaw it and figure out what caused it — because it will happen again if you don't fix the root cause.
Before a tech arrives, go through these in order. Many of these resolve the problem or help us diagnose it faster.
These are the most common root causes our technicians find in Seminole Heights homes with this problem.
Don't run the system while iced over — you can warp the coil and destroy the compressor. Call and we'll guide you through the thaw.

Still on the fence?
Switch the thermostat to OFF and the fan to ON. The blower will melt the ice without running the compressor. Wait 2–4 hours, check the drain pan for overflow, and change the air filter. Then call to find the root cause — it will freeze again if you don't fix it.
If the cause is a dirty filter, thawing is free — just replace the filter. If it's a refrigerant leak, detection starts at $249 plus repair. Blower motor or airflow issues run $189–$450. Diagnostic is $0.
Same-day dispatch when you call before 2pm. Our Tampa (Kennedy Blvd) depot is about 18 minutes from most Seminole Heights addresses. 24/7 dispatch available.
