frozen line sets usually are the result of one of two things: lack of proper airflow or low refrigerant. check your filters frequently, especially when the a/c starts running more frequently- a/c requires higher air flows than heating, so more air flow means more air cycling thru the filter. when the filter becomes blocked enough to affect the airflow, the compressor works harder costing you more money and delivers less cooling. changing filters frequently will save you money and keep you comfortable! you should call a contractor to check the refrigerant level- too little causes freeze ups, too much damages the compressor.

if it freezes you may also want to check the drain line. ours froze up when the line got clogged.

fixed but it sounds like the same kind of problem last year with a rental of
mine. I went to check out everything else first before calling my AC
guy....but did have to call him. Lucky for me it was the 4th of July holiday
and he didn't want to come....so he told me to just shut it down for about
an half hour or so and then try it. That fixed the problem......it had
been running so hard to keep up with demand that the coils froze up and
needed to thaw out. Sure saved me some bucks.
Just another thing to check out when one's AC unit stops putting out cold
air.
