Answer 1

Shouldn't be too bad. As the others have said, most likely the condestae drain is plugged. Either that or the AC unit has been tilted toward the inside of the house instead of away from the house. You can use a level to determine the slope or just set a ball on top of the AC and see which way it rolls. It should roll away from the trailer.

One other thing that might do it, and that is if you are low on freon. It could be freezing up and that could cause the water to flow towards the trailer. good luck.

Answer 2

That sounds like condensate, moisture extracted from humid air. It is supposed to go into a drain pan and then down a pipe to outside. If the drain pan bottom hole is clogged or a drain pipe is cracked that would let that condensate water spill inside the house. Look near the air conditioner for a problem like that.

Answer 3

I' guessing that it is a window or built in one and the one thing that it could be is the drain hole is plugged or it has been moved some how and it is leaning in towards the house not the out side. You want it to be tipped towards the outside.
If it is the furnace type the drain may be plugged or the pan could be not level so to drain towards the drain hole.
Make sure you cooling fins are clean and not plugged up with dust and causing it to drip there.
Those are the areas I would start to check. to start off with.

Answer 4

it should be tipped outward slightly so it drains outside. if it already is, it's probably clogged and needs cleaning.
