Problem for GE APN10AA Portable Air Conditioner

I have a portable air conditioner and the water




By ncbaker on Jun 11, 2009

" "
I have a portable air conditioner and the water condensation tank fills in about 4 hours of constant use. Is there any kind of portable water tank that I could attach to my unit that would allow me to empty the tank after overnight use rather than every 4 hours? I am hesitant to drill a hole for the plastic hose to drain outside. Thanks for your help.(ncbaker@bellsouth.net)

I would suggest putting a condensate pump in the reservoir, find the tube that empties the water into the reservoir and direct that into the pump. You can run tubing from the pump to a sink or any other drain in the house that is convenient. Putting the pump inside the reservoir is a safe guard in case the pump fails, the water will fill and turn the unit off instead of flooding the floor. It would actually probably trip your breaker once the water hit the voltage on the pump but always better safe then sorry. Check out these pumps at amazon, you don't need anything fancy.

I have this air conditioner. What I did was get a long plastic tube from home depot and connect it to the middle back drain. I then put the plastic tube outside my window, or if u have a drain somewhere put it in there or put the end into a big bucket. Let gravity do its job. I did not connect the tube to the internal bucket b/c I would have to empty it too often. The air conditioner is on top of a table so that water will flow down the tube and out the window.

I have a Everstar NON-08CR-BB4 portable AC. A friend borrowed it and when he returned it the two hoses were not as they were in the reservoir area and I'm not sure if both go into the reservoir or what can anyone tell me how they should be positioned, there's a short one marked idel tube and a long one marked continuous.....

Won't drain into the bucket, it is bone dry. Water does seem to get all over the floor though.
