My guess is that it is lime. My mom moved into a townhouse and they rigged the runoff from her air conditioner to drip into one of her bathtubs. She is not too happy about it.
Any ideas?

The drain going to the tub is a Secondary drain. The main is probably stopped up and the maintenance staff is too stupid to know this. Have her call the office and have the main a/c drain unstopped. YIM for Further info

You could pray for Divine help or you could spend the $100 service call for a real HVAC company to come over and fix the problem. Simple answer, spend a little money and get it fixed or play with all these fixer up answers you will get here. Drain into a bath tub, surely you are kidding? Pay me now or pay me later, these jokers sure add a big amount of income to anyone who can do the HVAC.

i live in md and my HVAC teacher told me that the local codes say that that air conditioner line is sopposed to run outside, not into a septic tank or a sewer system i could be wrong because ive never actually worked on them but. you may want to get that fixed

it is just dirt, grime in unit that builds up. if you can get to unit pour bleach in condensate pan. the drain line is to be ran outside the condo. but if home owners assco. says it cant you cant, look at others roof tops to see where the drains run off. if others run off roof its ok.

dust and dirt from your return air usually if you have a pet that sheds a lot it will be black and stringy with the hair off your pet
