We have a drain hose on the upper drain that goes right out the window. The problem is we are getting water leaking out the back - side left of the lower drain hose. It is constantly running. We used the black drain and emptied everything, but it just happens again. We must keep a pan there. The problem is my son gave us this for a gift and brought it down from NY. We are in South Jersey and have no idea who can come out to look at it.
Hello Scarletjo1,
What we need to get our arms around your trouble
is for you to OBSERVE of the water collection bucket
is FULL when you start getting water...
~~
Water Pump Drainage:
Remove the rubber cap from the spigot next to the power cord. Attach the rubber tubing supplied to the drainage spigot.
Locate the open end either through the rubber grommet in the window slider kit so it can discharge out through the window,
or
in a suitable discharge drain. ( Fig. 10 )
The pump will engage once the bucket is full.
Continuous Drainage:
Remove the supplied rubber stopper from the hose connector. Screw a suitable
length of hose onto this connector. Place the open end into a suitable drain making sure there are no kinks in the hose.
( Fig. 11 )
~~ (Do check your pump configuration
(This UNIT must be "set up"... it is not plug & play)
>> ((follow instructions in MANUAL)).
There is a pump... pump controller and "over-flow"
sensor...
all have to be failing.. cracked or have
leaking O-rings for you to be getting water on the floor
They all source their control from the very same
control circuit PCB (printed circuit board)
See the attached parts list

How high up is your exhaust hose in relation to the unit - if it is too hight, the pump may be struggling to discharge the water.
I assume this is a vented model, where you have a large diameter pip exhausting air outside (Around 110mm wide) if so, is there also a smaller pipe to carry the condensate water?

possible that your evap. coil is dirty and since the air flow is restricted because of the dirt the unit over amps. Once it starts to pull more amps than required the plug trips. Also the plug itself could be going bad which has happened to me before. Good Luck

SOURCE: i am getting alot of water leaking out of the unit.
I live with my husband and three sons in a house that we almost never succeed in cooling enough every summer. But a few months back, my uncle mentioned that he had recently purchased a new model of air conditioner by Plasma Cool called Plasma Cool Portable PC-14E that required no draining and came equipped with technology to remove most of the humidity from the air. We checked this ac out at his home, and the next thing we did was researched all the no drain acs with evaporative booster out there in the market to see if there was anything better than the one my uncle had. But the only one that met our needs and budget was Plasma Cool Portable PC-14E. At 14,000 BTU, this ac is 40-50% more powerful than similar acs in the market and covers upto 500 sq. ft. Look for this product on www.plasmacoolportableac.com which lays out the features and specifications in easy and comprehensible fashion without coming across as trying too hard to sell you the product. We just finished the 30 day trial period, and now own the ac. We are very satisfied and are considering purchasing another unit soon.
SOURCE: water doens't drain properly and sitting there,
that's fairly common for window units, it's ok to drill a small hole in the underside of the case to drain the water, just be sure you don't puncture the condenser in the process.
SOURCE: Constant leaking water
The unit must be level and the hose lower than the machine. -Good Luck-Ned_
