How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the unit and place towels or a container under the leak area.

  • 1. Check drain outlet: Locate the drain hose outlet outside and ensure water can flow freely. Clear any blockage.
  • 2. Use a wet/dry vacuum: Apply suction at the drain outlet to remove sludge and debris from the hose.
  • 3. Verify indoor level: Use a spirit level to check that the Camry indoor unit is slightly tilted towards the drain side. Adjust mounting if necessary.
  • 4. Clean drain pan: If accessible, remove the front cover and gently clean the drain pan and outlet with a brush and mild disinfectant.
  • 5. Prevent recurrence: Regular filter cleaning and periodic drain flushing help prevent future leaks.
