Air conditioning works, blowing cool air.

Compressor clicks on and clicks off perfectly.

All of a sudden it stops blowing cool air and instead starts blowing air like smoke from the vents.

After a while it starts blowing cool air again.

This will repeat itself.

Please your recommendation.

It sounds like the condensation is freezing up on the evaporator. It has a thermostat to shut the compressor down when that happens. Running the blower on low speed will make that worse.
