Constant leaking water

limited info generic answer check drain line -and tilt of unit

1. put it on higher position near water drainage, window...etc
2. make hole in water tank
3. put tube in hole and lead tube in drainage or outside (hole in frame of window recommended for long term use). Fix tube with glue
4. take care that water tank is higher than end of the tube
5. done

Drill a 3/8 th hole through the floor at the lowest point then look for the water leak ,is the AC drain pipe clear as this is the most obvious point of entry and the AC condensate will run into car if this pipe is blocked

I had the same problem....raised the unit 3 feet off floor, the drain hose is 4feet long... But the secret to getting unit to drain into hose if unit is set to Continous is...... TILT the unit back about 5 degrees with a half inch piece of wood under front wheels and She will drain into hose instead of bucket.... [email protected]

You can install a condensate drip pan under it and attach a hose to take the water wherever you wish. Drip pans are standard A/C components -- you should be able to get one at an HVAC supply store.

According to my Everstar manual, P-1 is a drainage problem.
EverStar owners manual pg. 16 -

1. Release the drain hose from the ruber clip and pull out the rubber plug, let the drain hose slant down to a water container.

2. Press the TURBO button on the unit control panel for more than 3 seconds and the WATER INDICATOR light begins flashing. It indicates the forced water drainage feature is activated.

3. Waiting until the WATER INDICATOR light stops flashing and there is no water flow.

4. After the water has drained, remember to secure the drain hose and plug in the upright position and clip it to the unit.

The unit will return to normal operation.

....I had to do this and it worked - Good luck!

remove the clamp and pull hose,,thats 1 peice..onthejob

Hello Scarletjo1,

What we need to get our arms around your trouble
is for you to OBSERVE of the water collection bucket
is FULL when you start getting water...

~~
Water Pump Drainage:
Remove the rubber cap from the spigot next to the power cord. Attach the rubber tubing supplied to the drainage spigot.
Locate the open end either through the rubber grommet in the window slider kit so it can discharge out through the window,
or
in a suitable discharge drain. ( Fig. 10 )
The pump will engage once the bucket is full.
Continuous Drainage:
Remove the supplied rubber stopper from the hose connector. Screw a suitable
length of hose onto this connector. Place the open end into a suitable drain making sure there are no kinks in the hose.
( Fig. 11 )

~~ (Do check your pump configuration
(This UNIT must be "set up"... it is not plug & play)

>> ((follow instructions in MANUAL)).

There is a pump... pump controller and "over-flow"
sensor...
all have to be failing.. cracked or have
leaking O-rings for you to be getting water on the floor

They all source their control from the very same
control circuit PCB (printed circuit board)

See the attached parts list

I would suggest you give it a serious look inside
before calling for a "REPAIR"...

The base needs to be dumped regularly. The air conditioner sweats water during operation and the pan collects it. Your manual should give you the procedure on how this is done. In some cases there is a hose attached to the drain pan so that you can direct the drainage to a more conventional drain location.

Check the point on the tank (Bucket) where the hose connects to. Make sure there is no obstruction at the outlet of the bucket to the hose connection. Next make sure the hose has no kinks or no loops that may trap air to the drain. If necessary for a long run to the place of drainage raise the dehumidifier to a higher level for better drainage.
