CTC Condensate Leak

Water is leaking around the base of the furnace or inside the blower compartment (condensing models).

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Cracked condensate trap, Loose drain tubing, Blocked condensate line, Leaking collector box gasket

Safety first: Turn off power. Avoid standing water near electrical components.

Steps:

Inspect the CTC condensate trap and drain tubing for cracks, loose connections, or clogs.
Tighten hose clamps and push tubing fully onto barbed fittings.
Clean the trap and tubing with warm water and ensure proper slope to the drain.
If water appears to leak from the collector box or internal seams, seals or gaskets may have failed and should be evaluated by a technician.
