understand that. i was just curious if running the heat would cause condensation like the air does


You have the typical outside unit that looks like a square radiator, and an A frame or something inside? Like another poster said...do you have a heat pump unit? It's likely that you don't, and if that's true, then the heat portion won't affect the cooling issue.

Also, note that water backing up is a clogged drain pipe issue, but it doesn't typically lead to frozen over coils. Frozen coils on the A frame is from not enough air flow getting through from dirty fins or from various other reasons.

there is a unit outside but i think that's just to blow air around. the real unit is inside in the attic

yeah i figure that's the most likely culprit. i just didn't want to mess with it in the heat today and it will be much better tomorrow when it cools down
