By what you said they did in july, none of that would cause a leak since the drain line, capacitor, and contactor are not hooked up to the freon lines.

As some one else said did they add any freon or mention that your unit was low in July? Small freon leaks on older units are common especially in the coils. Have you had the leak diagnosed? did they say where the leak was coming from?

Edit: Im assuming your filter is good and recently replaced, as that can cause your unit to freeze.

Responding to a couple questions here:

No freon leak was detected in july. No freon appeared to be leaking then.

Filter gets replaced every 6 weeks or so on average. The leak seems to have come from a line right outside the main unit. But there is ice coating the entire unit and seeping our from inside the unit. It is literally a block of ice at this point. Its also been slowly dripping into my pan and causing way more drainage to the outside than normal.
