How can I stop my A/C from leaking water?

Answer 1

A/C is supposed to drip water but should be drained outdoors via a tube. The tube can become clogged due to algae from the wet, dark tube. Make sure that the tube is not clogged and, if it is, try to clear it with a wire clothes line. Once it's clear, make a bleach solution with a tablespoon of bleach in a gallon of water. (Mark clearly as poison) Pour a cup of the bleach solution thru the drain tube to the outside once a month to keep algae clear.

Answer 2

Um, I'm pretty sure your A/C is supposed to leak water... that's the condensation it pulled out of the air, hense the puddle of water under your car while running it...., home a/c units, push the water out of various places, as ours has a pump that shoots it beside the a/c unit. If it's leaking directly from the unit, you might need to hose it off, or blow it out with air hose

Answer 3

Appears that your condenstate drain line is clogged. Flush it out with a hose or air and dump a cup of 1/4 bleach and 3/4 water down the tube. Condensate lines often plug up by bacteria growing in them.

Answer 4

If this is a window A/C you should have it installed in the widow with a slight slant so that the condensation runs to the outside. This is normal for an A/C to build up condensation. HOPE THIS HELPS GOOD LUCK
