Have you ever noticed some pvc around your air conditioning outside your home? Do you own a apartment with a window unit? If so, you may have wondered how the water ends up there.
Cooling systems labor by passing hot air over really freezing pipes or coils.
The coils inside your apartment are attached to the a singles outside the apartment inside the large condenser. This is the thing that makes loud noises when it is on. During operation, the coils are cooled plus the blower motor circulates cooled air throughout your home. Heater air moving over really freezing coils creates condensation, plus this water must be drained officially for the plan to labor officially. Depending on where the air handler component is located, this water can be removed in many ways. If the component is localed vertically in a closet or garage, it will have a condensation water pump to remove water accumulated in a small pan. During attic replacement or horizontal localement, the component can have a shallow pan with either a heating element to burn off the water slowly or a fan to circulate the air drain by normal gravity to the outside. Let’s not forget all of us are just talking about the basics here, every plan is slightly different. Water flowing from your air conditioning system plan is consistently a good sign of functioning officially. You may ask, but what if you don’t see any water moving or coming from your system? Here, you have to find the water outlet, normally found outside near the condenser. If the line is dry, it means there is a clog somewhere in the line. Use a wet/dry vacuum to try to remove the clog. If there is a leak, try to determine if the line can be split plus reassembled. Lines are usually rubber hoses, making it easy to repair leaks if necessary. You just need fittings to join more than one ends. Remove the bad section of line plus viola, no leaks.
