Possible Causes

Clogged condensate drain line, Drain pan tilted or not level, Drain hose disconnected from pan outlet, Frozen evaporator coil melting and overflowing pan

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the AC and disconnect power. Place towels or a tray under the unit to catch water.

Steps:

  • Check unit level: Use a spirit level to ensure the indoor Blaupunkt unit is slightly tilted toward the drain side as per installation manual.
  • Clear drain line: Access the drain outlet on the indoor unit and attach a wet/dry vacuum to the outside end of the drain hose to suck out sludge and algae.
  • Inspect drain connection: Remove the front cover and verify the drain hose is firmly attached to the drain pan spigot and not cracked.
  • Check for coil icing: If the evaporator is icing up, address airflow issues (dirty filters, low fan speed) or have a technician check refrigerant charge.
