This sounds like a case for demand defrost. demand defrost which trane uses
self adjusts due to the fact that it senses the temp difference between the
air in and out of the coil and goes into defrost when the delta T is about
25 degrees. of course you don't want to go changing them all now but it is
something to consider when you need to change one down the road.
