    The solution of dripping water in the air conditioner:

    1. Quality problems of drainage pipes.

    Replace drain pipes.

    2. The indoor unit is not firmly installed and causes displacement.

    The installation and fixing of the fixed hanging plate of the indoor unit is not firm, and the displacement occurs after a long time, resulting in the high position of the drain pipe leading out of the side. Move the air conditioner, recalibrate the air conditioner position with a normal liquid level, and trim or lower the end of the air conditioner's condensate drain as much as possible.

    3. Dew condensation on the piping.

    Because the insulation material on the pipeline is too poor or too thin, or not completely wrapped, when the refrigerant in the pipe passes, it causes condensation. Disassemble the adhesive tape first, check whether the insulation material is aged, or properly installed, if you find a gap, or a thin phenomenon, you can rewrap it. At the same time, the aging tape can also be replaced to maintain the tightness of the copper pipe.

    4. The drainage pipe is blocked.

    The drain pipe leading out of the exterior is artificially blocked, or the drain is blocked by stolen goods, so that the condensation cannot be discharged. If the building is designed with drainage pipes, it is important to check whether the drainage pipes are unblocked, and whether the drainage pipes and air conditioning pipe inlets are properly connected.

    Reasons for water leakage of the air conditioner outside unit: 1. The common reason for the water leakage of the air conditioner outside the unit is this, the drain pipe is from the inner unit, and the inner unit is blowing hot air during heating, so there will be no condensation, such as the dripping water at the bottom of the external unit is also normal. Because the external machine blows cold air during heating, the defrosting function of the machine will be reduced when it is old, and the radiator of the external unit will frost or even freeze, and after the machine is automatically frosted or shut down for a long time, the frost will melt away and it will drip water.

    2. Water leakage of the external unit of the air conditioner, improper installation of the body: the indoor unit is tilted, and the direction of the pipe intersection is too high; Poor drainage: Poor drainage due to loose or bent drains into a wavy shape; Condensation on piping:

    Because the insulation material on the pipe is too poor or too thin, when the refrigerant in the pipe passes through, it causes condensation. 3. Solution to water leakage of the air conditioner: make a water tray that is slightly larger than the bottom shell of the air conditioner, install it under the outside unit, and connect a water pipe to flow down the sewer.

    Re-angle the drain, e.g. shorten the length of the drain; rearrange drains; replacement of drains; Reconnect drain fittings, and more.

    What's going on with the leakage of the air conditioner.

    1. The common water leakage of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is dripping, which is due to the fact that when the air conditioner is heating, the outdoor unit defrosts and produces a large amount of water, or because of the temperature exchange to produce condensate.

    2. Sometimes the air conditioner installer does not install the plastic drain in order to save time, which causes the water leakage of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

    3. Another situation is that when the air conditioner starts to heat in winter, the water flowing out of the drainage pipe of the indoor unit is the suction pipe, that is, the low-pressure pipe. In winter, the pipe is ice, and after exchanging cold and heat with the outside hot air, it forms condensation, and it will form water droplets from less to more, which will cause water leakage.

    4. The water leakage of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner may be caused by the low left and high right of the indoor unit, which is not kept level with the wall.

    5. The outdoor unit may leak due to the winding of the drainage pipe, loose joints, and blockage in the pipe.

    It is condensation, and when the refrigeration pipe is heated, it will produce water vapor, which will drip water. It may be loose at the pipe interface, and the water does not leak from the pipe, thus forming a leakage of the external machine.

    Summary. The air conditioner has a leak outside.

    If it is dripping from the high and low pressure valves, it is a condensation droplet, which is a normal phenomenon. The copper pipe in the external machine leaks refrigerant, resulting in poor heat insulation. It's also possible.

    Will the air conditioner leak from the outside?

    The air conditioner has a leak outside. If it is dripping from the high and low pressure valves, it is a condensation droplet, which is a normal phenomenon. The copper pipe in the external machine leaks refrigerant, resulting in poor heat insulation. It's also possible.

    The air conditioner showed a faulty h5 and stopped.

    Can the brand of air conditioner provide it?

    The Gree air conditioner h5 fault code is mainly to tell us that the air conditioner is automatically defrosting, and when the defrosting is completed, the h5 fault ** will disappear. Cooling and heating will return to normal. During the defrosting process, the air conditioner may temporarily stop cooling or heating, and the H5 display sign is mainly to remind us that the air conditioner is defrosting at this time, and the cooling and heating functions are temporarily stopped, and it will take a few minutes to recover.

    There may be several reasons for water leakage in the outdoor unit of an air conditioner:

    1.Icing inside: When the inside of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner freezes, the drainage hole of the outdoor unit will be blocked, which will cause water leakage.

    2.Pipeline blockage: due to long use time or excessive amount of gas into the shed, the pipeline is blocked, and the drainage is not smooth, resulting in water leakage.

    3.Aging or blockage of drain pipes: If there are foreign objects blocking the drain pipes or the pipes are aging and cracking, flushing and disassembling dates will make the water unable to drain normally, resulting in water leakage.

    4.Unreasonable setting of drainage pipeline: insufficient slope of drainage pipeline or wrong angle setting leads to poor water flow and water leakage.

    Solution:1Clean up the ice that has formed on the inside, and disassemble the outdoor unit to clean the filter and drain pipes, and pay attention to clean them.

    2.Wash and unclog clogged drains and clean drain holes.

    3.Replace aging or damaged drains to ensure proper drainage.

    4.Rearrange the drain line to make sure the slope and angle of the line are set correctly.

    The above are common ways to deal with it, and if the problem is serious or cannot be handled, it is recommended to ask a professional to deal with it. At the same time, in order to avoid water leakage, it is also necessary to clean, inspect and maintain the air conditioner regularly to keep it in normal operating condition, and pay attention to follow the correct installation requirements and specifications when installing.

    1. Is it normal for the air conditioner to leak in winter?

    It is normal for the air conditioner to leak in winter. In winter, the outdoor unit will produce condensate when the air conditioner is heating, and the external unit will frost on the surface of the condenser due to heat absorption, which will affect the heating of the air conditioner, and the air conditioner will automatically defrost at this time, and the frost will become water after melting, which will flow out from the chassis of the external unit. Generally, the domestic air conditioners produced by domestic air-conditioning manufacturers generally do not have the water connection hole plug and exhaust pipe of the chassis of the external unit, and are only equipped when the export air-conditioning customers specify it.

    If you want it in China, you generally need to ask for an increase to the installation unit. The drain pipe of the air conditioner is used to remove the condensate generated from the indoor unit when the air conditioner is cooling. When the air conditioner is heating, the indoor unit does not produce water.

    2. What should I do if the air conditioner leaks in winter?

    1. If the installation of the wall-mounted inner machine is not level, and the left is low and the right is high, the angle of the fixed wall panel can be adjusted horizontally.

    2. If it is dripping from the high and low pressure valves, it is a condensation droplet, or it is a normal phenomenon if it leaks during heating and defrosting.

    3. When the indoor evaporator freezes, it will also defrost and cause water leakage, which may be due to the lack of freon in the system and needs to be added; It may also be that the air duct system needs to be cleaned; Or the wind speed is abnormal, and the wind speed needs to be adjusted.

    4. It may be that the thermal insulation performance of the connecting pipe of the external unit is poor, resulting in condensation; Or there is too much refrigerant in the system, causing frost and water leakage in the storage tank.

    5. If the water pipe is blocked, it is recommended to replace the water pipe.

    6. If the condensate cannot flow out and drip to the outdoors due to the high inside and outside of the wall hole of the indoor unit connecting pipe, the angle of the wall hole can be adjusted to achieve the inner height and low outside, and the condensate can flow out smoothly.

    First, first of all, let me tell you that it is normal for the round hole at the bottom of the air conditioner to leak, so there is no need to worry too much.

    What is the cause of water leakage in the round hole at the bottom of the air conditioner.

    1. When the air conditioner is refrigerated, the high-pressure pipe of the external unit is cold, on the contrary, the outside air is hot, so when the hot air meets the cold pipe, the moisture in the air will liquefy into water droplets, which will be attached to the cold pipe, and the water droplets will flow down into small water droplets.

    2. When the air conditioner is heating, it is the same as the refrigeration principle, and there will be water droplets, so the general air conditioner will have its own drainage pipe.

    What is the cause of water leakage in the round hole at the bottom of the air conditioner.

    2. Precautions for installing air conditioners.

    1. Before installation, it is necessary to determine the location, it is best to install it in a place with smooth airflow, and the installation position should avoid direct sunlight, a good airflow environment and avoid direct sunlight can prolong the service life of the air conditioner.

    2. The wall of the air conditioner installation surface should be firm and hard, with sufficient bearing capacity, and the quality of the fixed bracket should be carefully selected to ensure that the air conditioner will not fall and be damaged.

    3. When installing the air conditioning drain pipe, it is necessary to ensure that its height is higher than the drainage, and if it is necessary to install the air conditioner through the wall, the position of the drain on each wall should be lowered in turn to ensure smooth drainage.

    Therefore, don't panic when you encounter a leak in the round hole at the bottom of the air conditioner, you can check the integrity of the drain pipe, and maintain a good habit of cleaning and maintaining the drain pipe and air conditioner regularly.
