Why does the air conditioner drip and see what causes it

Many consumers report that the air conditioner at home is leaking. Is it a product quality problem or something went wrong? Let's take a look at the knowledge about air conditioner leakage.

The air conditioner is leaking

To know why the air conditioner is leaking, you first need to understand the working principle of the air conditioner. The air-conditioning compressor compresses the refrigerant and expands it through the valve to release heat, and the temperature of the refrigerant is lowered. Then the refrigerant flows into the indoor evaporator, absorbs the heat of the indoor air through the contact between the evaporator and the indoor air, compresses it, and expands again, so that it reciprocates and takes away the heat of the indoor air little by little. The water vapor in the air will turn into water when it encounters an evaporator with a very low temperature, which explains the reason for the dripping of the air conditioner. Let's take a look at the specific reasons and solutions for the air conditioner's dripping water:

The reason for the air conditioner's water leakage: the indoor unit is offset

The indoor unit is not firmly installed Caused displacement, the indoor unit fixed hanging plate is not installed firmly, and the displacement occurs after a long time, resulting in a higher position of the drain pipe leading side, causing drainage difficulties; the horizontal position of the indoor unit body is installed improperly, and the horizontal position of the indoor unit is installed obliquely , The position of the pipeline port is too high, which will hinder the drainage of condensation water.

Solution: Move the air conditioner, recalibrate the position of the air conditioner with an ordinary liquid level gauge, trim or lower the end of the air conditioner's condensate pipe drain as far as possible.

Cause two of air conditioner leakage: water condensation on the piping

Because the quality of the insulation material on the pipeline is too poor or too thin, or is not completely wrapped, when the pipe When the refrigerant passes, it causes condensation.

Solution: This is our common indoor piping dripping phenomenon. When this phenomenon occurs, we should first disassemble the tape to check whether the insulation material is aging or installed properly. If there is a gap or a thin phenomenon, you can Repackage. At the same time, the aging tape can be replaced to maintain the airtightness of the copper pipe

The third reason for air-conditioning water leakage: the drain pipe is poorly drained or blocked

Due to the aging drain pipe Slack or bent into a wave shape, resulting in poor drainage and easy to cause water dripping in the air conditioner. Secondly, the drain pipe leading to the outside is blocked by man-made or the drain port is blocked by stolen goods, causing the dew condensation water to be unable to drain. Or the drain port is blocked by stolen goods, causing the dew condensation water to be unable to drain.

Solution: If the drain pipe is aging or loose, it needs to be replaced. If it is blocked by dirt, just clean it up.

Reason four for air conditioner water leakage: dripping water from the heat exchanger

If the heat exchanger is too dirty, it will cause poor drainage of the air conditioner. At this time, the blades of the indoor unit will gather Plenty of water and dripping. Or the uneven temperature of the heat exchanger caused by insufficient refrigerant in the air conditioner may also cause dripping.

Solution: To clean the heat exchanger, you can use a commercially available cleaning agent to rinse, gently brush with a wool brush, or use a high-power hair dryer to blow off the dust. Of course, if it is a refrigerant problem (which can be measured by a pressure gauge), you can only ask professionals to add refrigerant.

Causes and solutions of air-conditioning dripping-dripping of air-conditioning outdoor unit

Reason: When the compressor is working, it will produce cold work, and the refrigerant When the cold work is generated by compression, the cold work will be discharged to the outside, so the surface temperature of the pipes and condensers that transmit the cold refrigerant is extremely low. The atmosphere is rich in saturated water vapor. This water has the characteristic of being cold and will liquefy into water, so the phenomenon of 'water dripping' from the outside machine appears.

Solution: Water dripping from the outside machine is a normal phenomenon. This problem can be solved by connecting the drain pipe to the sewer pipe. You can also use a container to collect the water for watering flowers and mopping the floor.
