In my basement. Have drip line running from AC unit to drain in floor...Ok, so how do I stop the annoying drip sound ?

Answer 1

i guess put a sponge or a towel in the drain to even out the flow a little

be careful to keep an eye on it from time to time for mildew and mold

Answer 2

run a copper wire from the inside of the condensate line to the drain as near vertical as possible, the condensate will run down the wire and eliminate the dripping sound.

Answer 3

WELL YOU HAVE A COUPLE OF OPTIONS.

1 INSTALL A CONDENSATION PUMP,THAT WILL PULL THE WATER FROM A TANK,AFTER IT GETS TO A CERTAIN LEVEL

2 YOU CAN JUST TURN YOUR A/C OFF THEN THE DRIP IS GONE,BUT THE HEAT IS BACK.

3 GET EAR PLUGS

4 GET A CAN OF FOAM SPRAY IT IN THE DRAIN AROUND THE LINES(NEAR THE TOP ONLY)LET IT SET UP AND EXPAND THE DRIP SOUND IS JUST THE ECHO COMING FROM THE OPEN DRAIN,THE SOUND MAGNIFIES WHEN IT HITS THE SIDE OF THE DRAIN

Answer 4

AC condensation should be priority #1-not the sound of it. AC water generation is a serious real-time quantity that must be dealt with first and formost. Lack of properly addressing this correctly and timely has led to an entire host of human health interdictions. The water generated should be quickly routed outdoors in the most efficeint way. We as humans, do not want to add another humid contribution above and beyond our own contributions to the immediate climates we live in. It's all to easy not to start with what we are allready emminating in this reguard. You are human and ,as such, are a humid climate wherever you travail. Confines only concentrait this reality.
