So. my AC air filter has gotten completely wet, and worn down. I noticed a thin layer of ice on the unit itself. Anyone know what to do in this scenario?

Turn it all the way off and turn the fan on.

don't run your AC in February

a filter right next to the coils?

the filter goes in that slot near the ice.

p.s. i live in south florida so its actually hot most days around this time of year.

Let it defrost, change your air filter, and then change your filter more often so the unit gets adequate airflow.

i flipped the breakers on the ac condensing unit and blower (im only familiar with commercial type AC systems, like split systems and such) off, so hopefully that helps. hopefully given that, the ice will melt, as the ambient temperature here is usually in the mid 70's on average.

turn the AC off, turn the fan on, change the filter, call your AC guy to check the coolant level.

is melting the ice fast. thanks.

will get the maintenance to check on it, but i think i just needed to change the filter anyhow. much appreciated on the advice all.

Needs refrigerant and may have a leak. Try running it in AC mode to rapidly melt the ice.
