2nd a/c freezing up

We have a dometic a/c unit installed in the bedroom and it tends to freeze up and shut off or not blow hard, if we catch it before it cuts off. We actually had chunks of ice fall out the other day, usually it just drips periodically. This a/c only has dials for blower settings and how cold. It is not digital and it is not ducted.

As hot as it is you will have to run the fan on hi to keep it from freezing up. You can also try to set it a little warmer with the fan on hi.

After reading lots today, we took off the cover and realized the cold air tube was loose and we were losing our could air back in with the return air.
That is now fixed and is staying on. It does need some cleaning so maybe in the morning we will go up top and see what we can do with both a/c's.

If its hot and humid you will have to run the fan speed on high to keep the evap coils from freezing up.
