    1. The installation of the wall-mounted internal machine is not horizontal, and the common reason is that the internal machine is low on the left and high on the right. Solution: Readjust the angle of the fixed wall panel horizontally.

    2. The wall-mounted indoor unit connecting pipe is low inside and high outside; Solution: Re-punch (or reaming and trimming) to adjust the angle of the wall hole to achieve the inner height and outer low.

    3. The position of the drainage outlet of the wall-mounted indoor unit is lower than the position of the wall hole, resulting in the condensate cannot flow out. Solution: Increase the height of the wallboard.

    4. The condensate tray has too much ash and the drainage hole is blockedSolution: remove the water tray to make the drainage hole unobstructed.

    5. Condensate drain bending or flattening solution: check the drain pipe and replace it with a new one when it is damaged.

    Since the air conditioner will expel condensate to the outside when it is running, the higher the temperature, the easier it is for the water to vaporize, and the water vapor in the air will condense into water droplets when it is cold.

    In the case of refrigeration, the air conditioner will have the function of dehumidification, because the indoor air has to pass through the heat exchanger to cool down when circulating, and the surface temperature of the exchanger is much lower than the room temperature, so the water vapor contained in the indoor air is condensed into water. The condensate on the surface of the heat exchanger collects and is discharged down the pipes, and the water vapor in the air is accumulated, and the room naturally looks drier.

    The installation of the air conditioner is low, so that the condensate cannot flow out smoothly, which causes the air conditioner to leak. The indoor air conditioning installation is inclined, the indoor air conditioning installation is lower than the air conditioning drainage pipe, the indoor air conditioning is too dirty (there is too much dust on the indoor air conditioning condenser), the indoor air conditioning drain is blocked, and there is a drainage ditch with a phase drainage (in the bottom shell of the indoor air conditioner) behind the indoor air conditioning condenser, and the air conditioning drain pipe is necrotic.

    A kind of air conditioner leaks very badly, that is, the air conditioner drain hole is blocked, and this situation is mostly leaking from the left side of the air conditioner.

    Second, the water leakage of the air conditioner is not so bad, and the air conditioner leakage may be seen from the left, middle and right of the air conditioner outlet, and there is a style of condensate hanging.

    The reasons for the water leakage fault of the indoor unit are: whether to set the remote control of the air conditioner to operate in dehumidification mode when the weather temperature is too high and the air humidity is close to saturation.

    When the air conditioner reaches the set temperature, it will continue to dehumidify according to the computer program when it reaches the set temperature, and it will be turned on intermittently for 10 minutes below the set temperature and shut down for 6 minutes.

    In fact, it is equivalent to deep refrigeration operation, when the air humidity is higher than 70 degrees, it will produce a large amount of condensate in the indoor unit, it is recommended to set the air conditioner to refrigeration mode to improve the dripping problem caused by excessive condensation.

    Maintenance during start-up:

    After the air conditioner is turned on, the maintenance times during the air conditioner start-up process are determined by many factors such as environmental conditions, climatic conditions, number of hours of start-up, surrounding dust, air cleanliness, and whether the room is clean.

    The environmental conditions are not good, the weather is hot, the air conditioner is outdated, the air conditioner is turned on for a long time, and the number of maintenance during the air conditioner start-up process increases, usually once every month and a half.

    If the environmental conditions are good, the air conditioner is relatively new, there is less dust in the air, the air conditioner is turned on reasonably, and the electric fan is used alternately, the maintenance cycle can be appropriately extended, from the start of the air conditioner to the shutdown of the air conditioner for maintenance 1-2 times.

    The reasons for the sudden large amount of water leakage in the air conditioner are as follows:

    1. The wall-mounted inner machine is not horizontal.

    The inner unit of the wall mount must be kept level, if one side is high and the other is low, it will cause water leakage. This is because there is a water storage box in the air conditioner to hold the condensate. However, the volume is limited, and the original capacity is reduced even more when tilted, so the condensate will quickly fill up and overflow.

    You can re-measure the position of the air conditioner with a liquid level and lower the air conditioner as low as possible to one end of the condenser drain.

    2. Condenser pipe problem.

    The common problems of the condenser pipe are: the condenser pipe is damaged - it often occurs on the old condenser pipe (especially when the machine is moved, the old and brittle condenser pipe may be damaged), at this time, the water will not flow down the internal machine, but from the place where the pipe is broken.

    Condenser pipe fitting – Sometimes the condenser pipe is not long enough and needs to be connected to a section. Where two pipes are jointed, there is a risk of water leakage. The fault phenomenon is the same as the condenser tube breakage.

    3. Insulation layer problem.

    The main thing that connects the inside and outside of the air conditioner is two metal pipes. These two pipes contain refrigerant, and the temperature in the pipes is extremely low when working. When hotter air encounters a cooler metal pipe, condensation forms on the surface of the pipe.

    Therefore, we generally see that the surface of the pipe is tightly wrapped with an insulation layer, and one of the purposes is to prevent the generation of condensation on the surface of the pipe. Condensation can occur if the insulation layer is damaged (especially at the joints and at the junction with the internal and external units, which are prone to this problem).

    4. Lack of refrigerant.

    If it is missing, the air conditioner will not be able to cool or heat, or the cooling or heating effect is not good. When the temperature rises, the ice begins to melt and the water may overflow, as long as a professional maintenance master adds a sufficient amount of refrigerant to the air conditioner.

    5. The drainage pipe connected to the internal and external units of the air conditioner has not been cleaned for a long time.

    The drainage is blocked by the dirt adsorbed in the room, causing poor drainage, so that the condensate flows back from the pipe, so it can be dredged. If there is aging and rupture of the water pipe, it is best to replace a new drain pipe, and pay attention to the indoor higher than the outdoor drain to avoid the backflow of condensate.

    1. Improper installation or offset position of the internal machine.

    Especially for newly purchased machines, the leakage of the machine is mostly caused by improper installation, such as uneven installation or too high position of the outlet pipe protruding from the outside.

    Another reason may be that the installation of the fixed hanging plate of the indoor unit is not particularly firm, and it is loose, and the internal unit of the air conditioner has a certain displacement, which causes drainage difficulties and causes the internal unit of the air conditioner to drip water.

    Solution: Reinstall it due to water leakage caused by improper installation. During installation, the installation position of the air conditioner needs to be re-measured, and the position of the air conditioner drain port needs to be appropriately lowered to ensure that the condensate of the air conditioner can flow out of the air conditioner smoothly through the drain pipe, and fix the fixed hanging plate of the indoor unit.

    2. The drain pipe is blocked.

    When the drain pipe is blocked, the condensate of the air conditioner cannot be discharged smoothly, and can only flow out through the internal unit.

    Solution: The drain pipe is blocked, you can first see if the drain pipe mouth is blocked, and there is also a reason that the air conditioner is blocked due to too much dust, if the check is because the drain pipe is blocked, you can use a high-pressure water gun or other tools to flush it, and dredge it.

    3. Drainage pipe quality problems.

    If the quality of the drainage pipe is not very good, it is easy to appear aging and slack, which is easy to cause the pipe to bend and affect the smooth drainage.

    The solution: replace the drain with a new one!

    4. The heat exchanger of the air conditioner drips.

    This problem is mainly related to the filter, such as the filter screen that has not been cleaned for a long time, too much dust, which will lead to the deterioration of the hydrophilic aluminum foil of the air conditioner, after the air conditioner is refrigerated, the condensate on the evaporator can not flow directly into the sink, and can only drip into the room through the internal machine.

    Solution: Clean the filter regularly.

    5. The quality of the air conditioner itself.

    Including the poor insulation material on the pipeline, the insulation pipe is not completely wrapped, the phenomenon of condensation will occur when the refrigerant in the pipe passes, and the sink break, the sink outlet pipe is loose or falling off, and the sink installation is not in place, etc., indoor dripping may occur.

    Solution: If it is determined that it is a problem with the product, then contact the manufacturer as soon as possible to deal with it.
