High-Efficiency Pleated Air Filter
Airflow restriction is the most common cause of coil icing. When the blower cannot move sufficient CFM across the evaporator, the refrigerant does not absorb enough heat to stay above freezing, causing condensate to turn to ice. This ice then creates a physical barrier that prevents any further cooling of the air.

All-Aluminum Evaporator Coil
Micro-leaks in the evaporator coil lead to low refrigerant levels, which causes the system to operate at lower-than-designed pressures. In a low-charge state, the refrigerant evaporates at a much lower temperature (well below 32°F), flash-freezing the moisture on the coil surface near the inlet and eventually bridging the fins.

Electronic Expansion Valve (EEV)
The XV18 utilizes an EEV to precisely meter refrigerant based on load. If the internal stepper motor fails or the valve becomes physically restricted, it can 'starve' the evaporator, leading to a localized drop in pressure and temperature that initiates the icing cycle even if the total system charge is correct.
