How to Fix a Leaking Aircon Unit - DIY Now

How to fix a leaking aircon unit, air conditioner can be repaired by some simple steps in this DIY video. Air conditioning in Singapore is crucial, and when your air conditioners start to leak, you need to unblock the drainage run off pipe. Here I show you how to do this using my own air conditioner which started leaking the night before.

*Love this unit! Using upstairs in my sons bedroom **Fastly.Cool** and he’s finally able to be comfortable upstairs without me freezing downstairs. Works for more sqft than expected!*

[@annawulf4910]

Purchased: August 2023 - still works GREAT!I kzbin.infoUgkxxsUnXhGsSJLim_XnMHyQK0u3XVaW-CGn live in a studio and during the summer it gets scorching hot - really old building with no ac units. I can’t express how EASY it was to install. This unit has been a life savior during the summer and some days during other seasons where it can still be a bit warm at night. In this small place is my friend, a husky, poodle mix and myself. We need AC - lolI don’t use the dehumidifier option - I’m not sure if it will leak in my house, since I did not install the small draining hose that came with it. May look into it late but I don’t worry about much humidity in the apartment. I don’t understand why the negative reviews since all things mentioned, I personally did not find issues with. Definitely worth it!

Thanks so much for this! We fixed our leaking air cond at 12am following your instructions. Totally saved us from an unpleasant night!

[@tunjitsu]

Thanks a million bananamana. I'm all the way over in abuja Nigeria, and your solution worked excellently well like a charm. Thanks a million! People like you make the world a wonderful place to live in.

tunji awelenje I'm doing it myself too. They charge 60$ here just for that.

[@stevenwhite9927]

Googled “how to fix a leaking aircon” and now I am watching my exact same aircon! Could not have fixed my leak without watching this! Thank you!!

[@limsm725]

Great DIY tutorial which will benefit many home owners, more so, from one among the community.....

[@eware9044]

Just a fantastic video. Exactly the fix and simplicity in every step. Thanks for taking the time and energy.

[@macturner2196]

Thank you for this video. When I took off the front, I saw the problem. There was gunk, and old dirty water clogging the front of the drain port, causing water to spill over. I vacuumed it out with a wet/dry shop vac. Problem SOLVED. This also gave me a chance to clean my filters.

[@nelsonchan6011]

Real and perfect DIY! Good job. Will follow your demonstration to fix my AC leaking.

[@TheMezzy712]

Thanks heaps. This fixed my problem. I would not have tackled this without watching your video. Saved me a call out fee. Cheers.

[@windbreaker57]

Thanks! This is a huge help. Got a leaky one right now and was just about to call in the service techs.

[@diankamal9930]

Thanks for the fixing instructions. My air conditioner is now back to normal.

[@bissibissibiss]

friday Yes!

[@viviennebibby42]

Thank you ever so much . Just for being there it helped me sort out my thoughts. because it's under warranty. I have been told we can't open the casing, so I have a professsional coming at the end of the month. Hope that it doesn't take him more than an hour. Very impressed by your dedication to helping people. Good one. Rock on Vivienne Bibbby Gold Coast

[@chrisn8448]

Thank you much for this video. Have Soleus air 24 btu installed in my media room. Turned-on tonight and its leaking water. Looks like its coming from the right side. Have to wait til morrow to work on it. Hopefully it'd be similar to the one you've got here on this video. Keep up the good work helping us.

[@arthursibu]

Thanks for the simple yet concise instructions, saved me money!

[@BananaManaTV]

Great suggestion! I'm going to do that from now on. Thanks so much for sharing this added tip! (Christian)

[@jeremynpeet]

Thank you.. very useful Just to share with others my YORK model was slightly different. There were 2 additional screws to remove (hidden below to louver) in order to remove the cover. And the drip gutter went along the unit and collected in a small tray just behind the control panel. Its easy to locate if you follow the hose. I was able to unblock the drain hole quiet easily with a bottle brush.. definitely satisfying to pour a gallon of water into the gutter and hear it glug glug down the drain hole :) thanks again.

[@tadbubs]

This is totally wicked. Your step-by-step, with clear and concise video, was superb. I'm using this method over here in Singapore (stationed here from California). The repair teams we pay oodles for, over here, don't always come up to scratch. Thanks heaps. Btw, is the pipe set-up and latches mirror those on a Mitsubishi air-con?

[@hjpuffnstuff7622]

How greatful I am too you. You saved me from a person to look at it and everyone said" its cheaper to get a new one than problem solve. I live in remote Australia. How much do you think it would cost me for someone to travel let alone fix it when its not guaranteed. Thankyou . In debted too you. Aussie Dave

[@andysintome7827]

Thank you very much I have now fixed my leaking aircon after following you video. It was definitely a blocked drainage pipe andalls working well again. Thank you

[@ughpeople8030]

Alhamdulillah it works with our GENERAL aircon too thank u so much

[@wendymcneill5212]

Thank you so much. Great video. You helped us fix ours! all the best to you

[@najihahwafa9576]

Very helpful video! Will give it a try now as my mom is complaining the ac in my living room is leaking. Wish me luck!

[@asper234]

Thank you so much. This is a very useful DIY video. BananaMana TV.

[@BananaManaTV]

@Jose So glad it worked out. Not every unit is the same as mine, but the root problem most of the time is backed up drainage pipes.

[@sunchildtine]

thanks for being a good samaritan. good video. hope i can work it out, im not good with tools.

[@samsun01]

every couple of years, i come back here for this video on how to fix the leaking air-con. thanks BANANA!

[@maiasequoia1092]

Just exactly what I needed. I am now able to save my place of employment on energy use,time and money. I have a more efficient air conditioning system, able to prolong the life of the unit(s) and the instructions were simple ,short , sweet and to the point. Within those few minutes of instructions, I also received a lot of helpful maintenance procedures and a hint of the supplies and tools that I would need. Very thorough. Thank You. I like being the cute little female maintenance person. ;)

[@raniakadhim7123]

Oh my god, thank you very much! This was super useful. Im only sixteen and i fixed my ac all on my own!

[@theflowergodleanne]

Im sixteen and tbh im q afraid of opening my ac

[@mfamily3772]

[@burgessfloristdurbansoutha3126]

Thx so much ours was a little different but your video helped so much and saved us a call out fee. Thanks again.

[@RobertoValle007]

This is great! Thanks for saving some good $$$ in maintenance! (Despite the poor choice of BG music of this video). Still liked it. Thanks!!

[@huberthusson8868]

thx for the tip. I was thinking of calling the maintenance guys, but now I will give it a go myself.

[@bucksleezy1]

Thanks for the video! Solid instructions. I had two leakage problems for anyone that might be experiencing similar issues. The first was in the leakage pipe as shown in this video, and the second was over-cumulated water in the styrofoam installation near the base of the metal venting. I'm not about a long-term fix for the latter, but I probably drained out a cup of water and then used a towel to soak up the remnants. Hopefully, the additional leakage was due to the clogged, full drainage pipe, which I fixed.

[@BrettMcNary]

THANK YOU SOOOOOOOO MUCH!! It worked, you're a lifesaver!!!! Liked and subbed!

[@rickandbill]

Thanks!! With your help I was able to clean out the line on my Siemems klima!!

[@joepiekl]

Thanks for the video. I used to do this just by going to the outside bit of the drainage pipe and blowing through it, but in my new apartment, it isn't accessible, so this really helped. Still had to blow through it though, because I don't have a vacuum cleaner. Just have to make sure you get your mouth out of the way before all of the gunk comes out.

[@9640803052]

Worked for mine

[@BananaManaTV]

OMG! You thorpeinbkk are the legend! Anyone who cleans their aircon with their mouth, because they have no vacuum is damn hardcore. Respect... Thanks for the great comment.

[@bodirat]

Appreciate the demo greatly. Many thanks

[@hasanjaved6008]

Thanks a billion tons man.... 😍 You didn't just taught me how to do it... You also saved my money 😘 I didn't knew I can do it of my own 💸💸💸💵💸💸💵🤑💰

[@VampyraR34]

Just did it on my own. I hope it works. Thanks =D

[@rtmacabio]

I watched your video and tried the others for an easier fix. I used my wet/dry vac and went outside to suck the drain pipe. Making a seal with my hand I fixed the problem in about a minute.

[@BuRnTmAsH]

Cool man. Im going to try this right now as it just started to leak water. I have to wait a week for a repairman so got nothing to lose.

[@Chrispy4949]

Gosh yes!!

[@natashas8707]

Noooooooooo, I could have watched the video without realising that!

[@soniabailey9613]

I kept pausing the video and calling out the kids to turn off whatever was beeping. Gave up on the video. Considering it's a voice over, that annoying AF beeping was totally unnecessary!

[@bellale-shamalamadingdong418]

Awesome, I'm so impressed :D

[@Sevaanful]

I watched this months ago, got a repairman in to clean the AC because I wasn't 100% confident, then now, under curfew, it kicked off again with the leaking, came back to this video, watched it, and did it by myself. Thank you Bananas, Manas, and TVs, the whole is greater than the sum. :thumb:

[@renierbrigola]

My LG aircon is leaking pretty bad since 3 months ago, the technician always vacuum from the main drain but after a few days the leak will occur again. No i did your DIY instruction i hope the leak would never wake me up in the middle of a good sleep. Cheers

[@nimishajadhao9550]

thank u sir i had done it successfully at home.

[@bambanghermanto72]
