Possible Causes

Cracked water tank, Misaligned tank, Clogged drain hose or spout, Overflow from internal tray due to blockage

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit and mop up any spilled water to prevent slipping and electrical hazards.

Steps:

  • Inspect tank: Remove the water tank and check for cracks or damage. Replace the Argo water collection tank if leaking.
  • Check tank seating: Ensure the tank slides fully into place and engages the seals correctly.
  • Clean drain path: Locate the drain spout from the evaporator tray to the tank or hose. Use a flexible brush or pipe cleaner to remove slime and debris.
  • Continuous drain setup: If using a hose, ensure it slopes downward continuously with no kinks. Clear any blockages and verify the hose outlet is not submerged.
  • Test for leaks: Reinstall the tank, pour a small amount of water into the evaporator tray (if accessible), and observe for leaks before powering on.
