Air-con Compressor Condensation Water

[patrickong 0]

Hi All,

I just bought a System 4 from Gain City and it was installed a week ago.

The compressor leaks water as shown below and the servicemen who came from Toshiba says that it is natural / common but I don't think so because I've never seen compressor condensing / leaking water before in my whole life except for single unit window mounted air-con or air-con inside our unit.

Can somebody share with me the situation and what should I do?

It may be problem with the insulation.

Try out MaxFlex insulation. Heard the sale person can help tabulate if the right thickness of insulation is being used. this will help prevent condensation.

Singapore has only one supplier, Two nine six o Trading pte ltd

Why does water drip from the Condenser Unit (Outdoor Unit)?

It is normal for water to drip from the Condenser Unit as condensation takes place when warm air surrounds the piping connections.

Install water tray below the outdoor unit to prevent the water from dripping on his outdoor unit.
