A/C condensation

Posted by Chris Nielsen on June 28, 2003 at 13:23:00:

Is it normal for so much condensation that it begins to fill up the port hull?
When I leave my ac on 24 hrs for a few days, there is about 4 to 6 inches of
water in the port hull. I'm positive its coming from the ac, it doesn't taste
salty. THe brand is cruisair.

Thank you Marc. Where would I find this hose, what does it look like? Was yours
a crusair? It's very difficult to get near any part of this system, it's
underneath the port side bed.

The tray that collects condensation is located under the condenser with a drain
tube and a drain hose under it. Mine is in a tight spot also,but it's definitly
there

Hi Chris, I had the same problem & it turned out to be a clogged condensate
drain hose. It was causing the condensation tray under the unit to overflow. I
disconnected the drain hose and blew into it, dislodging the obstruction

Haven't had a problem since
