Derek Cole explains why AC drain lines clog in humid summers. Condensate backs up into ceilings and floors when debris blocks the line. Flush it with water to check flow, and schedule maintenance before damage happens.
North Carolina, it gets hot, it gets humid. We're in the summertime. It has to dehumidify. The AC unit dehumidifies. What happens when it dehumidifies is it creates moisture, creates water, and that water has to leave the system and go outside because you don't want the water inside. So that drain line has not been used for a while, it is probably dry. Things may have gotten into it. It needs to be cleaned out because once it starts producing moisture, it has nowhere to go. It gets clogged, and when it gets backed up, it hits your ceiling, it hits your drain pan, it hits your floor. All kind of bad things can happen. So make sure your drain line is clear. Yeah. Take some water, send it down the drain line, make sure it's draining properly. Also, this can be done with the maintenance. Make sure your unit is in maintenance before it gets to that point to cause that damage. Thank you.
