RE: [A/S] A/C Drip
This typically is caused by either an unlevel (side-to-side/front to
back) condition, OR an insect has plugged the drain. Mold can also grow
in the drip pan and eventually plug the outlet causing the pan to
overflow into the trailer. I had a variation on the mold-caused
plugging, due to my installing plastic mesh over all the exterior drains
to prevent insects from entering and plugging them. I did not consider
that mold would grow on the mesh, but it did, plugging the outlet, which
eventually filled the drainline, the drip pan and started to drip
inside. It took me awhile to realize the cause, so now pulling and
cleaning that mesh cover is part of my pre-trip routine.
