Disconnect the outdoor fan and run the AC until the ice is gone. Be sure to turn off the power when disconnecting/reconnecting the fan. Call someone to get the proper long term fix done, there is a problem with your defrost cycle and it will freeze again.
Heat moves from the water to its surroundings when water is cooled below 0 degrees Celsius. This causes the temperature of the water to decrease further until it reaches its freezing point, at which point it will freeze into ice.
When liquid water is cooled below zero degrees Celsius, it begins to freeze and transform into ice. During this process, heat is released to the surroundings, as the water molecules lose energy and transition from a liquid to a solid state. This release of heat is known as the latent heat of fusion. Thus, heat moves out of the liquid water as it freezes.
Mercury powder does not exist; elemental mercury is a liquid metal at room temperature and cannot be turned into a powder. Mercury is transformed into a liquid by applying heat to raise its temperature above its melting point of -38.83°C.
At a depth of approximately 3,000 kilometers below the Earth's surface, temperatures can reach around 4,000 to 7,000 degrees Celsius (7,200 to 12,600 degrees Fahrenheit). This heat is primarily due to the decay of radioactive isotopes and residual heat from the planet's formation. The exact temperature can vary based on geological conditions and the specific composition of materials at that depth.
To melt helium, it requires extremely low temperatures rather than heat. Helium becomes a liquid at temperatures below -268 degrees Celsius (-450 degrees Fahrenheit) and does not require significant amounts of heat to transition from its gaseous state to a liquid state.
A heat pump generally has a max temperature change of 20 degrees F. If air entering the return duct is 90, it will not be cooler than 70 on the discharge side, Below 60, it is working against the insulation and air infiltration into the house. It is an air conditioner, not a deep freeze. Remember that a heat pump either dumps heat outside to cool a house, or picks up heat from outside to heat the house. If it is 100 degrees outside, it is hard to dump heat. Below 35, it is hard to pick up heat. At an outside temp of 59 degrees, it should work for either- but nobody needs cooling when it is 59 degrees outside. Open a window, already!.
Heat pumps don't work well when the temperature outside drops below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. The way a heat pump works is by absorbing heat from outside and moving inside using the refrigerant. Much like an air conditioner absorbs the heat from inside of your home and moves it out. Therefore the colder it is outside the less heat a heat pump can produce. The reason they install electric heat strips is to ensure that when the temperature outside gets below 40 you will still have enough heat available to heat the property.
Unfortunately, most domestic A/C units are designed to be set at 20 degrees below the outside ambient temperature. Setting it lower will overstress the system. So if it's 100 degrees outside, then your A/C should be set to 80 degrees to avoid breakdown.
A better way to heat and cool your home - but it may be expensive in the git go. Heat pumps have a problem heating with temperatures below 35 degrees. They can't provide heat if it is below 35 degrees outside. Pipes are laid under ground to use the 55 degree amibent heat there and the heater with 55 degree coolant, the heat is extacted by the heatpump to warm your house. They can also work in the reverse to cool homes. Acting similar to a refrigerator, heat pumps can draw heat from the home and transfer it into the ground and tamp into the cooler ground temperature.
None. There is no difference. Auxiliary heat and Emergency heat are synonymous. It is the electric heat strips that kick on whenever the outside temperature drops too low (below 30 degrees or thereabouts) for the heat pump to efficiently heat the house. The electric strips are a little more expensive to run, but they will heat the house.
The heat emanated from the streets, as it was 90 degrees outside.

yes you can
Because it is cold outside and the HP is useless below 35* or so.
The new generation of heat pumps are efficient below thirty. Just make sure the one you buy is designed for your climate.
Humans can die from extreme heat at temperatures above 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius) and from extreme cold at temperatures below -40 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 degrees Celsius).
Heat moves from the water to its surroundings when water is cooled below 0 degrees Celsius. This causes the temperature of the water to decrease further until it reaches its freezing point, at which point it will freeze into ice.
