Hi all,

This is principally for a new member, Craig, who's got trouble with wet carpets when his Air Conditioning is working. Here's a photo of the drain arrangement. Check to see if the drain pipe is still connected to the spigot on the heater box.

Hope it may help others with the same problem.


Cheers

Hi Craig,

You don't get off that easy. The bottom surface of the heater box casing is sloped. When you go around a right hand bend the water is thrown to the left and ends up in the recess on the fan casing. (don't ask how I know this ! ). Therefore a blocked drain is still possibly your problem.

There's no water associated with the fan section.

Cheers,
