The Case Of The Water-Filled Ducts Unless heat is supplied to the inside of the duct, said NAIMA, condensation will continue to form and water will begin to accumulate within the duct. If the temperature of the duct surface is low enough, condensation and possibly frost and ice will form, cautioned NAIMA. Not until the unconditioned space warms up and the ice melts will the problem become evident, explained NAIMA.

- Leaking Condensation. Many times on scalding hot days the home’s air-conditioning unit will run on a continuous basis as a way to maintain a comfortable level of air temperature inside the house. This type of leaking is normal, and is a product of too much condensation being generated on the evaporator coil. One process of the evaporator coil is to automatically dehumidify all the air from the interior of the home. As the humidity is withdrawn, dryer cooler temperature air is pumped into the home.
