Water Dripping From Your Aircon? Here's What It Means

What you get

Common Causes of a Leaking Split System

Blocked condensate line

Dust, mould and sludge build up in the line until water backs into the pan.

Dirty filters and coil

A choked coil freezes, then melts and dumps more water than the pan can hold.

Rusted or cracked pan

Older steel pans in 1970s and 1980s units corrode through and drip from the indoor unit.

Dislodged hose

A condensate hose that has slipped off its fitting lets water run straight down the wall.

Low refrigerant

A slow leak ices the coil, and the melt looks exactly like a drainage problem.

Safe Checks Before You Call

Check the filter

If it is grey and matted, clean or swap it and see whether the dripping slows.

Look at the outdoor unit

Clear leaves away so air moves freely through the coil.

Turn the system off

If water is dripping indoors, switch it off at the wall while you wait for us.

When a Cooling Leak Needs a Technician

Call us the same day if water is staining the ceiling, dripping near wiring or pooling on floorboards. Water finds its way through plaster fast, and a small blockage becomes a ceiling repair if it is left through a hot week.

Our Within-the-Hour Response covers urgent issues where availability allows, and we keep slots open for leaks through peak summer.

Call and we will tell you honestly how fast we can get there.

How it works

How We Fix Air Conditioning Water Leaks

Full diagnosis

We trace the condensate line, check the pan and test the coil before quoting anything.

The flush

A blocked line gets cleared and treated so it does not reblock next summer.

Pan replacement

A corroded pan is swapped for a new one that matches your unit.

Refrigerant work

If a slow leak is icing the coil, we find it, repair it and recharge under our ARC Licence L162586.

Local knowledge

Why Older Salisbury Plain Homes Leak More

Steel pans from that era

Rust through and start dripping before anything else fails.

Condensate lines never flushed

Sludge up over decades of summers.

1990s infill courts

Often got condensate runs with fewer fall points during fast building programs, so they block sooner.
