check to see if the drain is blocked, or it may be excessivly humid inside the house causing condensation on the indoor unit that gets blown off by the fan. some aircons have a dehumidifier cycle you could try that.

Three posibilities come to mind:
Dirty filters. Have you washed the return air filters lately? Constant running. If the unit is too small and runs constantly, they can ice up. Short of refrigerant. If the unit is short of refrigerant(gas) they will start to ice where the refrigerant enters the evaporator and then the ice just builds up over time, due to it running more than it should because its short of gas.
