Leaking water from the outdoor unit of air conditioner
The problem of water leakage in your adaptation of the outdoor unit, and find the drain water, as some see this leak is not really a problem, and in this article we will give some clarity on this issue.
It’s perfectly normal one air conditioning used for heating from time to time by outside body to be leaking water. This is a normal process in the work of all air conditioners used for heating, and this process should not be something that leads to any concerns.
The leakage of water from the external of an air conditioner is a result of natural processes due to the fact that external bodies themselves are always colder than the ambient air and this is the reason for them to condense water. The water freezes when external temperatures are around freezing or below, and this forms the ice on the outdoor unit. This ice is a pretty big problem when heating with air conditioners, because it is a heat insulator and discourages outdoor unit of an air conditioner take enough heat from the air outside.
The solution to this problem consists in a special mode, which exists in the algorithm of operation of all air conditioners and in this mode the accumulated ice on the outdoor unit melt within a few minutes, while the inner body with some air conditioners cold with little spirit amplitude.
In any case, during the defrost mode running out water from the outdoor unit of the air conditioning and if this water does not fall on the place is dangerous for people passing by it is not at all a problem. A problem could occur if the previous water fall in place to freeze again after the external temperatures are low and to create certain risks for passing people under the outdoor unit in terms of possibly slipping.
The last problem has a good solution that is sometimes used in the installation of air conditioning, but whether it is necessary that decision could define a man who professionally deals with air conditioners and a place where the air will be used for heating.
