    Hello, generally speaking, a small amount of dripping water is normal, because there is a small hole at the bottom of it that is used for drainage.

    1. When the heating function is used in winter, the external machine will absorb a certain amount of heat, and then convert it into condensate, and then discharge it with a small hole at the bottom;

    2. When the refrigeration function is used in summer, the internal pipelines of the host are in a low temperature state, and condensate will appear on the surface of the pipeline, and then it will be discharged from the bottom of the air conditioner.

    If there is a large amount of water leakage and the parts of the external machine are damaged, it is recommended to repair it in time for the safety of use.

    The air conditioner does not leak when it is cold. When heating, the bottom drain hole of the external unit will drip water. If you want to heat in winter, you still need to install outdoor unit drainage holes.

    It depends on which part of the water is dripping?

    If it is dripping water at the connection copper pipe joint, it is normal and there is no problem.

    If it is a temperature exchanger on the back. That is, it is not normal for the fin-shaped aluminum foil to freeze and drip. There are many reasons, it is recommended to contact after-sales service or ask a professional for maintenance.

    It is normal for the bottom of the air conditioner to leak, because in winter, the air conditioner heats up, and the small hole at the bottom of the beam imitation air conditioner is used for drainage.

    In the summer, there are water droplets, it is because some of the pipes inside the main engine are also low, which will produce condensation on the surface of the pipes.

    During heating, the external unit absorbs heat, and the condensate generated is discharged from the bottom.

    The amount of water is directly proportional to the air humidity and the heat conversion effect of the air conditioner, and the opposite is true when cooling, and the water is drained by the drainage pipe.

    When the air conditioner is refrigerated in summer, due to the low surface temperature of the evaporator of the indoor unit, the moisture in the air conditioner condenses on the surface of the evaporator of the indoor unit of the air conditioner, and after gathering more, it forms water. The resulting condensate drains away along the lines.

    In the same way, when the air conditioner is heating, the air conditioner is heating, the outdoor unit is cooling, the temperature of the outdoor unit is low, and it is also absorbing the moisture in the outdoor air, but the outdoor temperature is relatively low when heating, and the surface temperature of the condensing rubber fiber is also lower than 0 degrees, and the moisture in the air will freeze or frost after condensing to the surface of the condenser, and as time goes by, the more and more it will freeze, so that the heating effect of the air conditioner is getting worse and worse, and when the ice freezes to a certain extent, the air conditioner will start the defrosting program to provide the heating effect of the air conditioner. When the ice melts, it turns into water, which is often referred to as the "leakage" of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner

    3.Therefore, it is normal for the outdoor unit to have water coming out of the outdoor unit when the air conditioner is heating, but it should not leak to the outside, because at present, there is a drainage hole at the outdoor bottom of the small air conditioner for home use, such as wall-mounted units and cabinet units, which can lead a drainage pipe to a place where drainage can be done.

    The common dripping situation of the outdoor unit actually refers to the dripping of the outdoor unit, 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 condensation. Sometimes, air conditioner installers don't install plastic drains to save time, which causes dripping water from the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. Another situation is that when the air conditioner is turned on in winter, the water flowing out of the indoor unit drain pipe is the suction pipe, which is commonly called the low-pressure pipe, because in winter the pipe is ice, and the hot air outside is exchanged for cold and heat to form condensation, from less to more water droplets, it will produce dripping.

    The cause of dripping water in the outdoor unit of the air conditioner - the solution to the dripping water of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

    Cause 1 of air conditioner leakage: quality problems of drainage pipes. Some drainage pipes are of poor quality and are easy to age and relax, resulting in bent pipe shapes and poor drainage.

    Reason 2 for air conditioner leakage: The air conditioner was not installed firmly when it was installed, and it was displaced after a long period of use, resulting in changes in the location of the drainage pipes and difficulties in drainage. Air conditioner leakage cause three:

    Condensation on piping. Because the quality of the insulation material on the pipeline is too poor or too thin, when the refrigerant in the pipe passes through, it is easy to condense water.

    2.The air conditioner was not installed securely when it was installed, and there was a situation after using it for a long time. 3.

    Condensation on the piping, because the quality of the insulation material on the pipe is too poor or too thin, and the refrigerant in the pipe is prone to condensation when it passes through.

    1. If the indoor unit is offset and the air conditioner is moved, recalibrate the position of the air conditioner with an ordinary liquid level, and trim or lower the end of the condensate pipe of the air conditioner as much as possible. 2. The condensation on the piping should first be dismantled to check whether the insulation material is aged or properly installed, and if a gap or thin phenomenon is found, it can be re-wrapped. At the same time, the aging adhesive tape can be replaced to maintain the tightness of the copper pipe.

    3. The drain pipe is poorly drained or blocked, if the drain pipe is aging or loose, the drain pipe needs to be replaced, if it is blocked by dirt, just clean it up. 4. The heat exchanger drip cleaning heat exchanger can be washed with commercially available cleaning agents, gently brushed with a wool brush, or used a high-power electric hair dryer to open a cold air to blow away the dust. Of course, if it is a problem with the refrigerant (which can be measured by the pressure gauge), you can only ask a professional to add the refrigerant.

    During refrigeration, the condenser condenses the moisture in the air to form liquid water, and there is a drainage groove at the bottom of the inner unit to flow the water out of the outdoor through the drainage pipe. When the internal unit is not installed properly and the drain pipe is blocked by more dust, the condensate will not have time to be removed, and the water will leak. Workaround:

    Clean the drain pipe and tilt the whole machine slightly towards the drain pipe.

    Solution: Leakage solution of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner:

    1. Check whether the drain pipe of the air conditioner is blocked by foreign objects or the drainage is not smooth, because the outdoor unit leaks due to the aging of the drain pipe caused by the long-term use of the drain pipe, the solution to this situation is to check the cause of poor drainage of the drain pipe, replace the new drainage pipe in time or clean up the blockage.

    2. Check whether the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is not installed well, the position is offset, resulting in the situation that the outdoor unit of the air conditioner has been leaking, after a long period of use, the position of the normal drainage of the air conditioner is offset.

    3. If the heat exchanger of the air conditioner is seriously dirty, it will cause poor drainage of the air conditioner, and a large amount of water will accumulate on the blades of the indoor unit and drip down. Or the lack of refrigerant in the air conditioner will also cause the temperature of the heat exchanger to be uneven and cause dripping. The solution is to check the air conditioner filter and remove it for cleaning, so that it is clean and will not affect the air conditioning effect.

    4. If it is a water leakage caused by condensation on the piping of the air conditioner, due to the poor quality or too thin of the insulation material on the pipeline, or not completely wrapped, when the refrigerant in the pipe passes, it will cause condensation. The solution is to replace the insulation material of ***.

    Causes of water leakage in the air conditioner:

    1. The round hole at the bottom of the air conditioner is blocked.

    If the round hole at the bottom of the air conditioner is blocked, the condensate cannot be discharged normally and will leak out.

    2. The round hole at the bottom of the air conditioner is damaged.

    If the round hole at the bottom of the air conditioner is damaged, the condensate will also leak out.

    3. Overload operation of the air conditioner.

    If the air conditioner is overloaded, its condenser heat dissipation efficiency will be reduced, resulting in an increase in the temperature of the condensate and eventually leaking out.

    Causes of water leakage of outdoor units:

    1. If it is dripped from the high and low pressure valves, it belongs to condensation droplets, which is a normal phenomenon.

    2. Water leakage during heating and defrosting is a normal phenomenon.

    3. The insulation of the connecting pipe of the external machine is not in place, resulting in poor heat preservation and condensation.

    4. Too much refrigerant in the system, resulting in frost and water leakage in the storage tank.

    1. 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 refrigerating, 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 in a small book.

    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 remaining walls of the air-conditioning installation state 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-conditioning outdoor unit 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.
