48000 Airxcel water leak inside

Recently I had an odor problem with the Airxcel 48000 Model 48254A876. The unit had been sitting unused for a long time. The odor issue was resolved by using coil cleaner but afterward the unit started leaking water inside the RV after being turned off and then also during use. Is this a gasket issue? the drain hole is functioning properly. Please assist

Does the unit drain have a trap .If not that might be your issue .Without a trap water would stay into unit and when unit shut off then it would drain

SOURCE: rv air conditioner leaking

I have the same problem....it is a negative pressure problem holding water inside the unit until it overflows the pan and runs into the duct system. why this occurs....I don't know....I cant find a problem with my air return, but as soon as you turn in off, the water comes gushing out the drains on the unit. I resolved this....temporarily....by twisting up a paper towel into a wick, and placing one end up into the drain tray, with the other end lying well out into the exterior case. This lets the water wick out and keeps the tray drained. I don't understand the problem and don't know what the permanent fix will be, except maybe cutting a hole and placing an intake vent directly below the unit.

The ramp up mechinism is not closeing the gasket up tight agaisnt the sealing surface so this is a warrenty issue, take it in and have it repaired by the dealer. If you want asstanice to do it yourself please Post here for detailed instructions on doing it yourself. You would do better in a chat because of the problems you may run into that way you work with just one person. Hope this helps.

Coleman Mach 48000 series roof top A/C in my camper & recently it's been dripping heavily inside the camper. We looked at the top & inside for a clogged line & can't find anything, suggestions?

I had the same problem but it wasn't a clogged drain line, it was the gasket between the roof of the camper and the AC unit. The gasket had shrunk and pulled apart allowing rain water in. To make sure you don't have a clogged drain line when using the AC do you notice water dripping off the camper anywhere besides inside? You should have some drips somewhere on the outside.

Unit is cooling, but keeps bogging down, it's an airxcel 48000 series

You have to try resetting the system. First turn the breaker off for the condenser and wait about 20 seconds. After you turn it back on the system should reset. If you are having prolonged air conditioning check out Air Conditioning Tamarac for more HVAC Support

What does a freon leak in a deep freeze smell like?

Freon is odorless. A sewer odor could be caused by an unused sink, tub, or floor drain trap where the water has evaporated. A gas odor is a very serious issue that should be checked immediately by the gas company or the fire department. Gas can seep in from a leak outside the house or accumulate in a wall if a fitting fails.

soap and water to the defrost pan is the only way if odor is inside place crumpled newpapers in the section for 1 day then unused coffee 2 cups this will absorb odor inside of the unit

Odor

Could you possibly have a dead rat under there? I know this sounds gross, but they love to hide in the electronics. (Sorry). Anyway, your drip pan may sit on a small bracket type piece that isn't heavy at all. It can sometimes get misplaced, causing the fridge to leak because it's out of place. If you can get a flash light, you should be able to see where it's placed and you should be able to remove and clean it out. I put Mr. Clean in mine when it gets an odor and when water hits it, the solution cleans the odor, but you can clean it and replace it. I hope this helps!

Foul water odor after wash

There is always a littlee water left in the sump of a washer after it is emptied. If the washer sits unused for as little as 2 or 3 days it can have that odor. One thing that I do is add about 1/4 cup of ammonia after the washer is full of water. DO NOT USE AMMONIA IF YOU USE BLEACH IN THE SAME WASH!!! IT WILL CAUSE CLORINE GAS TO BE RELEASED!! If bleach was used in the previous cycle it will be ok.
