Possible Causes

High humidity and low water temperature, Blocked condensate drainage path, Unit not level causing pooling, Insulated surfaces sweating

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure footing around the unit is not slippery.

  • Check operating conditions: Understand that heat pumps naturally produce large amounts of condensate, especially in humid climates. This can look like a leak.
  • Inspect drain holes: Look under the unit for factory drain holes or channels. Clear any debris blocking them.
  • Level the unit: Confirm the SPRSUN heater is level or slightly tilted toward the drain side so water can exit.
  • Monitor water clarity: Condensate is usually clear and cool. If water is warm or contains debris, investigate for actual plumbing leaks.
