What to do if your air conditioner is leaking? 3 steps for self-check and professional solutions

Many households encounter water dripping from their indoor air conditioner units, which can disrupt usage and damage walls or furniture. Master Xiao Yijiang shares 3 self-check steps: Step 1: Inspect the drain pipe. Check if the outdoor drain pipe is kinked, clogged, or blocked by debris. Try blowing into the drain outlet; if air passes through freely, drainage is normal. Step 2: Check installation levelness. If the indoor unit isn't level, condensate won't drain properly. Use a spirit level to verify—the tilt should not exceed 5 degrees. Step 3: Examine the evaporator. Open the panel to check for ice buildup on the evaporator surface. Ice usually forms due to dirty air filters or low refrigerant levels. If these checks don't resolve the issue, it may be caused by a cracked drain pan or a faulty drain pump, requiring professional repair.
