Your air conditioner might be leaking water due to several reasons:
- Clogged Condensate Drain Line: The most common cause, where the drain line gets blocked with debris, preventing water from draining properly.
- Dirty Air Filters: Blocked air flow over the coils can cause the coils to freeze and, when they melt, leak water.
- Low Refrigerant Levels: Causes the coils to freeze and then leak water when they thaw.
- Improper Installation: If the unit isn’t level, it might not drain correctly.
- Broken Condensate Pump: Needed to pump the water outside, if broken, water accumulates and leaks.
To troubleshoot basic problems with your air conditioner, follow these steps:
- Check the Thermostat: Ensure it's set to cool and the temperature is set lower than the room's current temperature.
- Inspect the Filters: Clean or replace dirty filters to improve airflow and efficiency.
- Examine the Circuit Breaker: Reset the circuit breaker if it has tripped.
- Clear the Condensate Drain: Unblock the drain if there is water backup.
- Check for Visible Ice: Defrost any ice on the evaporator coils.
- Inspect Outdoor Unit: Remove any debris blocking the outdoor unit for better airflow.
If these steps don't resolve the issue, consider contacting a professional HVAC technician.
Are There Signs I Might See That Mean My AC Is Breaking Down?
There are! Some are super obvious and almost silly to point out.
The first no brainer: my unit won’t turn on and off.
The second: warm air is coming from my vents.
Two other tell-tale signs, a noisy unit or a water leak, can be easily missed if your home or business is as hectic as most. But regardless of whether you’re getting warm air or the sense of a dripping noise, Edison Heating & Cooling is your choice for air conditioning repair services.
