Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Why does a window air conditioner drip inside the house instead the outside?

June 9th, 2009 at 01:23am Under Summer

Question by Clarence G: Why does a window air conditioner drip inside the house instead the outside?

Our fairly new room air conditioner (window mounted) is dripping water from the front of the unit (inside the room) instead of dripping outdoors. Unit is mounted leaning inward instead of outward because of the type of window it’s mounted in — unable to fix it so that it leans toward the outside. Do I need to make it lean outside to fix the problem?

Best answer:

Answer by Mr. Goodkat
Yes, there is a reason the instructions state to mount it with it leaning outside. The water drips out by gravity.
