AC Leaking Water in Columbia, SC

Water where it shouldn't be - around the indoor unit, dripping through a ceiling, or pooling in a closet or attic.

What usually causes this

  • A clogged condensate drain line - the most common cause by a wide margin in Columbia's humidity
  • A cracked or full condensate drain pan
  • A frozen coil that's now thawing and shedding water faster than the drain can handle

What to do before someone arrives

  • Shut the system off if water is reaching drywall, flooring, or a ceiling below the unit
  • Look for a wet-vac-sized access point on the drain line near the indoor unit - some clogs can be cleared there, but don't force anything
  • Move anything valuable out from underneath the leak

Questions people ask

Is a small drip really worth a service call?

A slow drip today is often a fully clogged line by next week, and the water damage from a backed-up drain pan can cost far more than the repair itself. It's cheaper to catch early.
