Troubleshooting An Advent Air RV Air Conditioner That's Leaking Water Into The Trailer
Question:
Hello, my new Advent ACM150 seemd to be working okay and then it started leaking water inside. It had be running for a few hours continuosley as it was a hot day. Any ideas on what is going on or what I should do? The trailer has never taken a road trip, only parked so I doubt debrs in the drain would be the problem. Probably only 25 - 30 hours of running time on it.

If your brand new Advent Air RV Air Conditioner # ACM150 is already leaking into the trailer then there could only be two causes:
1. The gasket isn't properly set and is allowing the water that is draining onto the roof to seep back in.
2. Something is preventing the water from leaking out of the drain pan onto the roof and allowing it to build up enough to pour back inside or there's a manufacturer defect in the drain pan that's allowing the water to drip right in.
I recommend taking a look at gasket and the drain pan and seeing if it's actually allowing water to drain onto the roof. Let me know what you find and we can keep troubleshooting to fix the issue.

I don’t see a drain pan under the condenser specifically unless it just drains into the entire bottom of the housing “tray”? Do I need to remove the styrofoam insulation to get to the condenser drain pan?
