If the system is short on refrigerant or has a leak the indoor coil will ice up and the fan will start spitting out pieces of ice, either that or the filter is really dirty.

Why does your air-conditioner spit ice?
If the system is short on refrigerant or has a leak the indoor coil will ice up and the fan will start spitting out pieces of ice, either that or the filter is really dirty.
Can you put ice in a portable air conditioner?
No, you can not put ice into a portable air conditioner. I think you are actually referring to a portable air cooler, in which case, you can put ice into the water chamber.
How is the air conditioner used?
There is a penguin in there and it throws ice into the air condicioning and the heat melts the ice and turns it into air.
Can you put ice cubes in the air conditioner?
No, it is not recommended to put ice cubes in the air conditioner. The AC unit is designed to cool the air by removing heat, not by using ice cubes. Putting ice cubes in the AC can cause damage to the unit and reduce its efficiency.
Can you switch the air conditioner on to melt the ice on the outside air conditioner unit even if it is 30 degrees outside and the heat was on?
yes you can
Why is ice forming on your air conditioner?
It may be low free-on.
Can you put ice in front of air conditioner?
Yes you can put ice in front of your air conditioner. And as a matter of fact, for each ton of ice that you use up, you will have gotten a ton of cooling done. This is the origin of the term "Ton" as it is applied to cooling. A ton of cooling is 12,000 btuh. So if you use up a ton of ice per hour, it will give you the same cooling effect as a 12,000btuh window air conditioner!
Is my air conditioner frozen?
If your air conditioner is not blowing cold air and you see ice on the unit, it may be frozen. Turn it off to thaw and check for any blockages or low refrigerant levels.
Should you turn your air conditioner off when it has ice on it?
Yes, as the ice is blocking the air flow and reducing the unit's efficiency, or completely clogging the air path. If you are experiencing high humidity conditions that are causing ice build-up on the coils, you should raise the air conditioner's temperature setpoint to a slightly higher temperature so that ice does not form. Normally, the output of an air conditioner should be at least two or three degrees above the freezing point, i.e., 34°F to 35°F to prevent ice formation on the coils.
Why does my air conditioner have ice build up?
Ice build-up on an air conditioner can be caused by a few reasons, such as low refrigerant levels, restricted airflow, or dirty coils. When the refrigerant level is low, the coils can get too cold and freeze the moisture in the air. Restricted airflow or dirty coils can also cause the coils to get too cold and freeze. Regular maintenance and cleaning can help prevent ice build-up on your air conditioner.
What are the best practices for protecting an air conditioner during the winter, including the use of an air conditioner cover for winter?
The best practices for protecting an air conditioner during winter include cleaning it, removing debris, and covering it with a specialized air conditioner cover. This helps prevent damage from snow, ice, and cold temperatures, extending the lifespan of the unit.
How can I determine if my air conditioner is frozen?
To determine if your air conditioner is frozen, check for ice buildup on the coils or pipes. You may also notice reduced airflow or warm air coming from the vents. If you suspect your air conditioner is frozen, turn it off to allow it to thaw before calling a professional for assistance.
