Leaking aircon is a perennial problem faced by households every few years. The exact cause can only be determined and identified by an aircon specialist, and such reasons for aircon leakings are as follows:
Clogged drainage pipe: Normally, the air conditioner’s water will condensate inside the fancoil. This will usually be released in the drainage pipe. If the drainage pipe is clogged or choked then water will start leaking. General aircon servicing normally involves the vacuuming of the drain pipe which may rectify the choked pipe problem.
Wear and tear of the aircon
Poor installation of aircon
The gradient of the piping between the fan coil and drainage is too gentle causing leakage
