Fedders Complaint - Ice Shooting From My Air Conditioner - Air Conditioner
Complaint
STATEN ISLAND, NEW YORK -- I purchased a Fedders 2400 btu room air conditioner in 2005. Since using this air conditioner, it shoots ice from the grill. I called this company and they promise to have a technician call me about this problem. No one called the air conditioner has only been used 2 summers since I purchased it on Sept 19, 2005. It doesn't cool my house and continually shoots ice. This air conditioner is installed in my dining room and when company is there for dinner, they get hit with ice shooting from this air conditioner. The company does nothing and doesn't answer your inquiry.
Now I'm getting in touch with the better business bureau to report them. Don't ever buy anything from Fedders, their service stinks.

Im sorry about your a/c acting up - but, you have to admit the visual of guests ducking flying ice from the a/c is classic. Hope it works out for you.

As I recall, Fedders filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy about a year ago and was subsequently sold. That might be the basis of the problem - the warranty might have died with the company.

Are you sure that's not an ice maker that you hung in the window?

The BBB is a waste of time in this case. Unless it is a huge unit, it may not be worth the costs to have it repaired, especially with Fedders these days. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for them to do anything 3 years out. Live with it or sell it (cheap since it isn't perfect)are about you two only viable options.

I'll take that unit off your hands. I have a couple family members we could put in front of it.

Was it installed correctly by a professional or by you? If it's leaning "downhill" towards your room, may result in shooting ice. Be your own hero here and check the installation. You can't expect a manufacturer to stand behind a homeowner installation.
