Summer :confused:

either the filter or coil is dirty or it is low on refrigerant . pull it out of the window and clean it good first

Could be a dirty coil, filter, or low on refrigerant.

:) Hi thanks for answering so quick,we have taken it out of the window and clean it out real good and put it back on more of a slope,the AC Puts out real cold air, no warm air at all,you would have to cover up with lots of covers,could i be running it on hi all the way up on 9,could this have something to do with it?it a Quasar cool look,had it a while,But still very good cold air. also you can hear it crack and pop a little before this happens.thanks for the help.
Summer :)

Are you saying that no matter where you set the theromstat setting it just keeps blowing out cold air? Cracking and popping always scares me when it's coming from an electrical appliance. You may have some shorted switches in there. Did you let it dry out real good before turning it back on.

:) Hi,Mattison only when i have it on hi and on the 9 setting does it make the noise.and you can hear the ice fall,I turn it down on lo and a lower setting and no noise came from it last nite...so i don't have a clue what causing this unless i trying to set it to hi . could that be possible? i like my rooms very cold.
