[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 3150663, member: 29706"] When you notice that it's freezing up over the weekend go to your breaker box and flip the breaker for the outside unit off for about 30 mins. It should thaw and then when you kick it back on it will continue to cool the house down. It's a PITA but it's better than being uncomfortable especially when sick. It will not work overnight as well but if you get the place cool you may be able to last with it off for the night. If you just want to stay cool yourself and don't care about anyone else and you have someone to help have them freeze some gallon jugs and get a styrofoam cooler and a small fan.
