It sounds like it just iced up, which could be from a low Freon level or from exceptionally high humidity.
I will add to this.. I've seen clogged filters restrict air flow as well. But conitions that can add up to icing are
NO FROST SENSOR or frost sensor mis-placed.. I've not seen this personally but have read about it.. The frost sensor is a Temperature probe stuck in the evaporator (cold) coils.
Low Freon (Seen many times)
Low air flow (Clogged filters seen once, or fan on low)
and overly high humidity (Again I've not PERSONALLY seen this)
Also though it is tempting to set the things at a lower temp to "Cool faster" it's a myth that it will do so, set to 70 or 72 and let it work, setting it in the 60's won't cool any faster
Same (With reversed nubmers) applys to heating as well, IT will heat just as fast at 73 as it will at 93.
