I wonder though, how would a block of ice build up in either a heating or cooling unit? It's a question that came to my mind after reading the article and also because several HVAC contractors came to my home and installed one for me. Also, winter time is coming in pretty soon so this will be a good time for me to know how to prevent any breakdowns on my unit. <a href='http://www.biggerstaffs.com/heating-cooling' ></a>
