Most of us have basic knowledge and understand that heating system repair requires checking electrical connections, but it can also require checking for proper water drainage. The condenser in your AC system gets very cold during normal operation. When the weather is warm, moist air from home or window comes into contact with it, and thus moisture gathers on the surface of your cold unit. The surface of the unit then begins to “sweat”. As the water droplets add up they begin to drip down into a pan and then into a drainage system. If the drain for your AC gets clogged, the water will inevitably find another way out. This means it will begin to spill wherever it happens to be placed on carpet, wood, furniture, or electronics. This will mean water damage in your home and possible repair and replacement bills that add up quickly. It is important to maintain your window air conditioner to avoid issues like this from occurring.
