    Try making sure the drain on the A/C coil pan and drain line is clear of all obstructions.

    I get lots and lots of inquiries about water leaking from air conditioners and heat pumps. This is a very common problem that is easily solved. The way your air conditioner dries your house is by removing moisture. That moisture must go some where. The moisture is removed by condensing it on the cold refrigeration coils and letting it run down a drain pan.<a href="http://www.houstonairconditioners.net/>Furnace Replacement</a>
    The problem is that dirt and crud will stop up the drain line and clog the pan. This will eventually happen to every system out there give it enough time.
