Julie: > and I can't figure out why my air conditioner freezes two hours after I start > it. Either the air filter is completely or nearly clogged or your inside coil is clogged with dirt or you're low on freon. If you change your filters regularly (every month or two), then most likely you've got a freon leak and it's reached that magic stage of icing up the coil. Another, but least likely cause, your blower fan is cutting off while the compressor is still running. Check your filters first.
