How do I stop water from dripping from my air handler? The technician has checked the pans, drains, and freon with no luck. He is stumped as to where the water is coming from.

To high a blower sped will blow the water off the coil.

Check your attic temp, and ventilation, if the attic temp is high it will cause condensation on the outside of the handler, look for a 15 degree difference between outside temp and attic temp. Just be careful on how you correct your ventilation problem, you can cause more problems than you fix. There are some great guideline under attic ventilation as a search.

Some times a water leak in the air handler is difficult to find, BUT it can be solved , first notice where the leak is comming from may not be level (should be level or barely pitched toward the drain) , if the coil is dirty the condensate may drip off of it instead of following the coil to the pan, pan may be cracked (hard to determine with out disassembly) or rusted out, Should have a P-trap on drain to keep air from displacing water in drain.
I agree with HVAC 1000, if the coil is dirty it can cause a higher velocity thru the remainder of the coil that is open and blow water off coil into the duct.
