AC Leaking Water Inside? Here Is Why

Your AC removes a lot of moisture from humid Georgia air. That water has to go somewhere.

Clogged condensate drain

Algae and dirt can clog the drain line, and water backs up. This is the most common cause.

Frozen coil

Ice on the coil melts and can overflow the pan. Check the filter and airflow.

Cracked or rusted pan

Older drain pans can crack or rust through.

What to do

Turn off the system, soak up the water, and get it checked. Water near electrical parts needs a technician. See AC repair.
