Here in St. Augustine, air conditioning systems need to perform every day to keep the heat and humidity at bay, and any signs of trouble should prompt a swift and efficient response. Trouble can come from anywhere, but a system that is leaking water can be an especial cause for concern. \u201cWhy is my air conditioning leaking?\u201d you ask. The answers vary, but often entail one of the following causes.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ice on the coils<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen your refrigerant leaks or refrigerant levels drop, the system\u2019s ability to produce cool air is reduced. That can result in ice forming on the evaporator coils: lost cooling potential that adds considerable strain on your system. The ice might melt \u2013 a side effect of our warm Florida weather \u2013 but the underlying problem remains until you can correct it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Drain pans and lines<\/strong><br \/>\nYour air conditioning system develops condensate that drips off the pipes and is collected in a drain pan. A drain line from the pan then carries it safely out of the system. If the line becomes clogged or the pan is misaligned, there could be a back-up and water will leak out onto the floor. This can cause a serious problem when the water comes into contact with nearby electrical components.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Broken condenser pump<\/strong><br \/>\nWater leakage can sometimes develop when your condenser pump breaks, which is a considerable issue in need of immediate repair. Without the condenser, your air conditioner cannot effectively function.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A certain amount of condensate is typical here in Florida, with our high humidity levels and constant rain. But if you\u2019re asking \u201cwhy is my air conditioning leaking?\u201d there\u2019s probably an issue in need of addressing. <a href=\"https:\/\/acdesignsinc.net\/service-areas\/st-augustine-fl-air-conditioning-heating\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Air conditioning repair in St. Augustine<\/a> is offered by the experts at AC Designs Inc.
