Question

why does water drain from air conditioner while it is running?

Answer 1

Water doesn't drain unless the ac is in dry mode.Obviously ,in dry mode the ac's job is to dry the room i.e. to absorb the moisture from the room to decrease the humidity level.So,where do u think ur ac is going to store that moisture.It drains all the moisture outside.

Answer 2

Aurthor D has the right answer. Cold air can't hold as much water as warm air. As the air conditioner cools the air the water condenses out, runs down the cooling coils and to the drain.

This is the same thing that produces dew on the grass on a cool morning. The water condenses out of the air as it cools and collects on the grass.

Answer 3

Because mechanism job of air condition replaces the air into water thus get rid of both the water (H2O) by the water drain and the cold air .

Answer 4

Warm air holds more moisture than cool air. As the room air is drawn past the cooling coil, the moisture in the air condenses on coils and drains off. this is the water you see draining.

Answer 5

condensation from the coil. warm air is brought right past the cooling coil. the coil is very cold as it is running freon through it, one can actually see the ice build up on the coil. the warm air melts this ice. it is sort if a battle between the coil and warm air. coil wins always unless it is low on freon.

Answer 6

other gases
