Moisture coming out of window air conditioner's vents

replying to Ed Pawlowski, Michelle wrote: Everyone keeps saying drain pans I have two window units one I have no idea I'm only 4"11 so can't get to it but the one I'm having issues with is I've tried everything the water hose, vinegar, coil cleaners it still has about a two inch spot that keeps dripping it was the whole bottom on the inside now only a small spot but it's obviously the drain I unclogged the drain yesterday and after an hour on it was coming down on my bed and wall so at this point I'm just not using it. Also everyone say clean ur drain line okay I have a hole on the outside I've cleaned it. Water poured out today I did the same but no water. It doesn't have a spot to pour something threw it to clean the drain pipe. Mind u I've cleaned the drain but used something long and thin it's not stopped up now so I don't know why it's dripping in the house. My wall is starting to show signs of water because it's drained so much while I wasn't at home. I'm giving up hopefully husband can fix but it harvest season in my state so don't see that happening anytime soon.

There may not be an actual "tray", just the bottom sheet metal. Be sure th ere is adequate slope from the inside to lower on the outside so any moistu re is directed to flow toward the outside. Look for some sort of drain hole somewhere on the bottom outside of the unit and make sure it is clear so a ny condensation can flow out through the hole and not be blow into the insi de of the house.

Is the AC sitting level? If it has tilt to the inside it will leak. Usually the drain pan inside makes the water flow to the outside, but your may need a little tilt to the back.

Water does not cause mold but can help it grow and spread if there is any.
