Window AC spitting out Ice

**unmarked** · December 7th, 2015 06:49 PM

guys, aside from cleaning the filter, is there anything I need to do to prevent ice buildup sa AC unit ko? I have a window type LG unit non inverter .75HP, wala pang 1 year. bigla nalang may tumunog na parang gumuho na ice build up sa loob then it started spitting out small ice once palang naman.

what are the things should I look for? may tama na ba to? or simple cleaning lang ang kelangan?

i usually equate ice-ing with low freon load.

matagal sigurong hindi nalinisan yung filter mo kaya nag-ice mas grabe pa dyan yung isang AC ko buong harapan mismo ang nag ice nakaligtaan ng mga tauhan kong linisin for almost 6 months

Madumi yan or hindi maganda ang water drain mo.

Pwd naman po e DIY ang cleaning ng window type non inverter. Lalo na kung all mechanical.. basta alam mo pong buksan at alam mo ang parts na hindi pwd mabasa.. garden hose pwd na..

Icing sa evaporator means low refrigerant. Have the leak fixed and refill with refrigerant.

Ganyan din aircon ko dati.

Ganito yung picture nung evaporator ng AC ko when it was spitting ice.

Turns out half filled na lang yung refrigerant.
