Leave it alone. DO NOT attempt to create a drain. As long as a window A/C unit is installed properly, (angled slightly down toward the rear) it will drain excess water over the rear lower lip of the unit should it get that high. Many models use some of the collected water/condensation. It gets lifted up by the fan blades to cool the coil.

Find the manaul locate the area where it should be located and examine, if as you say it is difficient ask the supplier to make an assessment. If you make an attempt to construct your own outlet you may well find a void warrenty.

Our frigidaire MSII came with no drain hole. Last summer we put up with it spewing water all over our deck. This year we drilled a drain hole & no spewing water & the AC works great. Very poorly designed AC. Close to a gallon of water drains out the hole every day.

Where is the drain pan drain hole on the bottom of the Fridgidaire FAC 127S1A air conditioner?
Good Morning Friend,

I understand you want to know where the drain hole is on your Frigidaire air conditioner, model# FAC127S1A. I see that the drain seems to be blocked, as water is collecting in the drain pan, instead of draining. The drain hole is located beneath the compressor. You might want to try tilting your air conditioner slightly to the outside, to allow better water drainage. Hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-

I have a frigidarie window air conditioner with drain hole in the bottom that leaks is there a drain hose and hose adaptor that can be purchased if so where
If you cant do any better, cut a piece of plastic or flashing material and insert it under the ac so that the dripping water will fall on it and away from the building. If you make it long enough you can insert it under the unit in such a manner as to pinch it and hold it in place. You can bend it to suit. I have a number of houses with window units. The first thing I do when I get a replacement unit is pull the cover and drill a hole or two, 3/8 to 1/2. The largest I can drill and not touch the coils.

I have a window air conditioner that is leaking water on the inside. we've have 90+ temps now for 5 days straight.
The problem you're having is usually a result of the condensation pan under the unit has a clogged drain hole. In addition, if the outer exterior of the unit is not tilted down 1/4' to 1/2", water backs up in the condensation pan and can not flow toward the drain hole.

Clearing the drain hole and being sure the unit is tilted enough, should solve the problem.

Where is the drain hole on my frederich quietmaster wall air conditioner?
Hello, if there is no drain hole under the unit then it uses the fan blade to sling water on the condenser to evaporate the condensate. Some window units are made this way instaed of using a drain hole.

The slope away from the window should be 1/2". Also, check the drain hole outside on the drain pan. It may be clogged.

Need to know if I can connect a drain hose/tube to my air conditioner model # FAX054-P7A1. I'm having a problem with water collecting in the window sill/track
Hello, the first thing is make sure the AC is tilted a bit in the window, if it is level the water will collect toward the front of the unit and drip inside. Second if there is a drain hole on tne unit then you can connect a hose to it and let it drain. However if there is no drain hole then the unit uses tne fan blade to splash the water on the condenser and since the condenser is warm/hot it will condense the water.

THE DRAIN HOLE FOR MY FRIDGIDAIRE AIR CONDITIONER IS IN THE WINDOW SILL, WHAT DO I DO ABOUT THE WATER ?
You will have to remove the unit fro the window,and take it outside and remove the cover,unless the sheel remains in the window,and use a water hose to clean all the debris out and clear the drain,this really needs to be done every year,also,make sure the tilt on the unit is enough for the water to drain outside,not in,if this was at all helpful,please rate thank you.

My FAC104 P1A window air conditioner does NOT drain any water. I don't even see a drain hole on the underside?? Am I overlooking something? Thanks, Jeff
Some don't have a drain hole anymore. As long as you have it tilted slightly, any excess water will drain out. If your house or room feels good, it's working. It won't pull moisture out of the air if the air has already been dehumidified.

Sounds like fan is hitting water, also throwing off a water mist.
Look outside the unit, unless you are very high in the air and clean out the condensate\water drain hole. You live in a very humid climate, you have to keep that hole clear or water will build up. Some units us a splash system to splash on to the condenser to help cool it.
