  1. water is normal its condensation from the coils  threes usually a drain or there a dip pan with a heater to dry the water  so check drip pan or water drain line


  2. The water is from the condensation of the cooling coils. Its not a problem, every airconditioner has that, but it normaly has a drain to drain the exess water. So try and get as much water out as you can before removing it. Good Luck

  3. Condenstation - normal for air conditioners to create condensation.  It should drain out a tube to the outside world.

    Only problem may be is if your drain tube is clogged.

    Note - your refridgerator & freezer can have the same problem. They drain to a pan that evaporates into the room.

  4. This is perfectly normal due to condensation.  Tilt the unit back while it's in the window and if you take it out like that again, you may want to have a bucket or something to drain it into.

  5. the water came from condensation,that is normal,air conditioners remove moisture from the air when they cool,it's like a cold glass of watter,it sweats. tilt the back of unit slightly downward when in window water should drain from drain hole when in use.

  6. The A/C does remove moisture in the air but should drain out to the back through a drain hole or channel.

    These passage ways can get plugged up and not drain properly.

    It could also be just the normal amount of water it holds in the back.

    Some units just hold the water in an area next to the fan blade in the rear area where the blade picks up the water and throws it on to the condenser coil were it is evaporated.

    In this case it may be normal.
