Hello, first make sure the unit is tilted back in the window about a 1/4 inch. Also, check the drain on unit, sometimes they can clog and prevent condensate from draining.

It is normal for an air conditioner to leak water out the back. This water is actually the humidity being taken out of your house. Being vented out in to the garage is always an issue with condensate water. I have seen some people take a funnel and run a hose outside the garage somewhere. Keep the vent closed. It will be harder to cool the house with the vent open because it lets outside air in to the house.

Water should come out of the back of a wind unit when it is humid out, usually a drain hole. If water is leaking inside from a window unit, check that the outside drail hole is not clogged or maybe it is not tilted downward enough outside (Usually a very slight tilt down toward the outside to help the water drasin out the back outside). Also, if you have excess water forming, you may need to clean the coil. For central air units water should be drippng outside the home via a pipe or tubing and if the drain tube or pipe is clogged with scum that forms inside the pipe water will back up and overflow in the house near the heater/air conditioning unit. Also, some units have a pump to pump the water out and it may not be working.

Should have a drain hole on back to drain outside it maybe pluged or unit is not leveled to outside has to have a slight tilt for water to drain out not in.

mcdevito75 here, The portion of the a/c unit that goes outside the window is the evaporator and suppose to leak water, check the drain hole in the unit floor on the outside portion of the unit, reach this drain hole thru another window or have your local a/c repair shop look at it, they come to the house.

Hi,
Always make sure that your unit is tipped back towards the outside os it does not leak inside...

All air conditioners drain water.

your unit needs cleaning.

when fan is running, it creates a vacuum that hold the water from spilling from your unit, then at auto, as the temperature is reached, the fan would stop and the vacuum that keeps the water from spilling would disappear and starts to leak water.

have ti clean....

that would eliminate your problem..

tnx 4 using fixya,

well it might not be tipped at a angle so the water comes to the front tip it back some
