Flooding ac unit

[vanburen]

My salon ac unit is overflowing with water(condensate?). I assume there is a clogged drain. Anyone know where it connects or drains to? Many thanks.

They usually tie into your shower sump

It is probably plugged up at the pan. Need to look and clean out the crud at the drain tube.

The pan drains into the basin that it is sitting in via a fitting on the aft end ofnthe pan. Then the basin drains to the sump. The line appears clogged. Will try to blow it out.

Had that happen on my unit under the bed , the floor got wet . Just cleaned out the drain plug and no problems, drains into the shower sump.

All fixed!

Add a cup or so of bilge cleaner to your condensate pan from time to time, plus add some to the shower sump too. It helps disolve the spooge that grows. I use Starbrite bilge cleaner works well and it doesn't smell like Pine-Sol

Cool. Thanks. Too bad everything in a boat is a PIA to fix. Except the faucet strainers - I suppose - soaked them in vinegar for an hour and they are as good as new - nice water flow.
