Mike mentioned the freezeguard protection on the 2005 models. I was not aware of that. So all of this may be moot. You may never see a freezeup on yours if freezeguard really works.
The freeze guard on the new units works quite well. I forced mine to freeze up just to test the option, and it worked great. The way I made it freeze up, was to simply block off the exit vents on the ceiling unit, which forced the cold air back into the return. It took about 3 minutes for the coils to freeze up. Once the probe read 32 degrees, the unit turns off the compressor, and puts the fan on high. The freeze thaws, and the compressor turns back on. I really think it eliminates the freeze potential!
