Why Air Conditioners Often Leak Water?

The main job of an air conditioner is to provide a sense of comfort by keeping the room cool. During this process, they can create more water. As to how much will vary on the humidity of the air, the size of the air conditioner, how efficient it operates, and whether it was properly installed.

The water abstracted from the air during its operation will fall to the cooling coil and drop into the base. From here, it will follow a passage or channel to the rear of the AC. Some water will be lifted up by the fan blade and will cool the heating coil, the rest of the water will move to the rear. When it reaches the rear, water drops out of the base and falls to the ground. The mechanism is running true when the AC is working fine.

Window air conditioners in reality leak water. You will find it crazy to discover the cause of the problem. The following may be the most typical reasons why AC leaks water according to https://www.billyaircon.com.sg/air-con-leak-water/.

  • Improperly installed

A window air conditioner is slightly lower at the rear than its front. According to the Billy Aircon FB page, it allows the water being removed from the room to drain at the back of the appliance. An adequate difference is an inch. A technician can check this out. Improper installation of the AC can be done in a hurry to suit the heat of the room. If the AC is installed too low, the water can flow through the room rather than outside. If installation on the rear is too low, water can move to the front edges before it exits on the rear drain.

  • Air leakage around the AC

If warm air can enter around the air conditioner, it will gather cooler, drier air. Once they meet, condensation can happen. If there is water leaking from the front of the air conditioner, check if the body of the appliance is dripping, or there could be the presence of water droplets in the front area. To test, run the appliance for 30 minutes and then use a flashlight to check the front edge of the base. Air leakage problem may be shown through small water droplets.

  • Icing up

When water is de-humidified, it can turn to ice if problems in the cooling system occur. There are various reasons why an air conditioner can create ice. Take out the front grille while the appliance is working. If the cooling coil has ice present, this will need service from a licensed technician.

  • Outside temperature is too cold.

It happens during the end of the cool season. If the temperature outside drops to below 50 °F, the cooling coil can create ice. If there is no leakage at bedtime but there is water in the front of the appliance in the morning, it could be the suspected problem. If this is the problem, switch off the appliance before bedtime and restart as the day gets warmer. Alternately, run the appliance at night with the selector switch in ‘fan mode’ only. This will circulate air into the room at night; however, there is no cooling involved. Visit this website for more information

Considering Moving To Singapore? What Every Expat Needs To Know

Singapore is considered to be one of the best cities in Asia for expats. Many think of this beautiful city as the perfect place to retire and live out the rest of their life. It is a clean and efficiently run city, yet there are charming remnants left over from British colonial rule. This bustling city is one of Asia’s primary finance and trade centers. While there are many benefits to living in Singapore including sparkling clean streets and a diverse and friendly population, the city was just recently named the most expensive city in the world. Still, there are many good reasons for expats to make Singapore their new home.

There is plenty of housing available in Singapore including apartments and high-rise condominiums. There are a few single-family homes but these rarely have any type of yard. The choices in housing for expats is usually between government-owned or HDB housing and privately owned condominiums. There is a wealth of new construction and many of these new apartments and condos have great amenities such as playgrounds, pools, and gyms. There are some landed homes in the suburbs.

While there is plenty of housing, the rent can be quite expensive. Space and land are in high demand in Singapore which drives up rent costs. As you near city center, rents increase dramatically.

The city enjoys a very low crime rate. Local law enforcement works hard to enforce the government’s zero-tolerance policy on drugs. One thing that may be different for most expats is that pedestrians do not have the right of way in Singapore. This means you need to use the crosswalks wherever possible. Sidewalks are usually very narrow and you may find yourself sharing with a bike which can create a dangerous environment. There are no dedicated lanes for bikes in the city and most drivers don’t look out for cyclists.

This said public transportation options are extensive. There are buses and trains that will take riders just about anywhere. The cost for public transportation is very cheap, but driving and owning a car can be expensive.

Traveling to and from Singapore is usually a challenge for expats, but once you are there it is easy to get to the best vacation spots. Many people get away on weekend jaunts. There are several budget airlines with affordable fares making it easy to get to Vietnam, Thailand and within Malaysia.


If you’re an expat, you may not know anyone when you arrive in Singapore. The people are typically very friendly and it is easy to make friends. There are many Facebook groups and online forums where expats can meet locals and learn about the community.

One significant benefit of being an expat in Singapore is the healthcare. There are plenty of public and private hospitals and outpatient clinics as well as many clinics run by private practitioners. It is important to note, however, that unless a clinic or doctor accepts your insurance, you will be responsible for all costs. These must be paid at the time of the visit.

Little History of History Museum

History-Museum.Org is based in Roanoke, VA. It is the property of Warrenstudio, LLC, and serves as a virtual sandbox for owner Stephen Warren. Content shown through this portal will range from the incomplete to almost-published. Geographic emphasis will typically be given to items of interest to Roanoke and Southwestern Virginia, as well as strange threads of curiosity based on nothing more than whimsy.

Many of these items were collected with a hope of someday using their contents as publishing fodder for small-run book titles. Thus the launch of History-Museum.Org and the equally under-announced formation of Lost Pages Press (another business entity of Warrenstudio, LLC).
