why does a little water leaks out from d back of ac.. n from part of ac gives out hot air?

Answer 1

Water might come from condensation. As for hot air, all air cons produce hot air, they work that way

Answer 2

An airconditioner, doesn't cool your house itself. An AC is a type of "heat engine," meaning it moves hot air. The hot air coming from your AC unit is actually the hot air that was in your house, that the AC "sucks" out. You don't notice any vacuum-like sucking in your house because cooler air takes the place of where the hot air was, causing a blowing motion of the cool air into your house. The water the drips out is most likely just condensation.

Answer 3

Well, it's important to know how the air conditioner works first. But I'll just cover two of the mechanical aspects. The first is the easiest to grasp.

Your air conditioner releases hot air out of a vent so that it can release some of the heat energy that it has aborbed. Your airconditioner works by sucking in "hot" air (hot air is only air that is full of "heat energy") and literally sucking the heat energy out of it. What happens if you pull the heat out of something? It gets cold. Your a/c unit has to release that heat energy so that it can continue to draw the heat energy from your house or room.

The A/C uses freon liquid freon to because the liquid freon is extremely cold. Therefore it draws the heat energy out of the air from your at a more rapid rate. Now, because it is so cold, it also draws the heat energy out of the components in the A/C Unit. This is most apparent in the compressor.

You know that there is always moisture in the air. So here is how the water leakage works. The freon draws the heat energy out of the walls of the compressor which cools the walls...the walls of the compressor, in turn, draw heat energy out of the surrounding air. When the water in the air reaches the level at which H2O (water) is liquid. When that happens it starts to collect around the walls of the compressor. As it continues to gather on the compressor it gains more weight. As it gets heavier it loses it's old on the walls of the compressor and drips onto the floor of the A/C unit. Gravity continues to pull it down until it hits the ground. Where it grabs heat energy again from the air particles around it and starts the process all over again.

This concept is also why A/C hoses freeze. Those hoses are thickly insulated to keep the freon from freezing the environment around it, but when there is a leak the hoses the Freon (like liquid Nitrogen) causes a rapid cooling effect turning the moisture in the air around it almost from water vapor to ice instantly. which then blocks the hose that is covered in Ice and prevents the freon from cooling the air that it is supposed to...which is why your house or room starts steaming up!

Answer 4

When the A/C cools the air, water condensers on the cool freon coils and drips down to the bottom of the A/C where it runs out the back (de-humidifying the air makes the air seem cooler).

If you are getting too much water, either it is really humid in your house, or something is clogged inside the A/C which is causing the water to back up inside the unit. Try removing the back and cleaning out any gunk that you see.

Answer 5

Lots of answers, but none really correct.
An AC unit uses a compressor to compress a fluid (almost always a type of freon), causing it to become warmer (in the CONDENSER - which is HOT) as a result of its greater pressure.

The condenser is located OUTSIDE the area to be cooled and uses OUTSIDE air to cool itself, warming that outside air.

As air is passed through the condenser by a fan, the fluid cools somewhat, giving up a portion of its heat to the air. When it has cooled below its condensation point at the pressure in the condenser, it condenses to liquid. This liquid then travels to a capillary tube, a very small passage through which it can pass only very slowly.

At the exit of the capillary tube, the liquid encounters comparatively low pressure and immediately flashes to vapor. (This is where it enters the EVAPORATOR - which is COLD.)

The EVAPORATOR is located WITHIN the area to be cooled and uses that area's air to warm itself.

This low pressure is caused by the compressor, which is drawing vapor OUT of this area, to be compressed and sent to the condenser.

Latent heat of vaporization is what allows the fluid to absorb great quantities of heat from its surroundings. As the fluid flashes to vapor, it becomes very cold, cooling the evaporator. Air passing through the evaporator (again drawn by a fan) is then cooled by the cold evaporator.

When the humidity is even somewhat high (30% or so) the air is cooled sufficiently on its trip through the evaporator for some of the moisture in it to condense on the walls of the evaporator (NOT the compressor) and fall to the catch tray in the bottom of the AC unit.

When the humidity is high (like 90%) you WILL notice a great deal of water coming out the back of the AC unit.

A final word - check and clean your air filters regularly. If your filters or the condenser or evaporator become clogged with airborne dust, etc. your AC unit will quickly lose efficiency, and waste a LOT of your hard earned money. It will have to operate at elevated temperatures (hence elevated pressures) to achieve the same amount of cooling as a result of restricted airflow, drawing more electrical current, which YOU have to pay for.

Answer 6

the water is condenstaion build up from the transfer of cold to warmth,the heat is opposite the cool air the ac is producing,nothing unusual. Ussually the condensation is more on a humid day. Like melting ice

Answer 7

Water is from the condensation. Your A/C has refrigerant that passes cold through the condenser and hot throught he compressor. The compresser is a small moter/engine that heats up turning the refrigerant into gas. It then cools through the condenser and condensation occurs. So the heat is from the compresser. All A/C work with this same basic principle.

Answer 8

Its the condenser.
