Good day guys,

Its getting hotter here in my location.
I added portable A/C for my room. (single duct model)
I have two tents in the room, and the A/C is set right beside of window to keep the duct short
My flower tent have a duct and intake fan suck it cold air from A/C.
Another veg tent only have exhauast fan pull the air out of the tent.

two days ago, I found some water leak all over the floor. It keep coming out
My unit have the hole on the bottom, another bigger hole can connect with tube for the water
I can use either way for water.
but I did not have any hole open, water isnt came from either hole.
I can feel its not working efficient as before.

Im sure I need to make some call tomorrow to get this problem fix.
its damn hot here, I can not run shit without A/C
I wonder how am I gonna do when my A/C is away fixing?
I have a window A/C in the other room, and its just right by the room I use to grow.
I wonder if I can make a duct at where A/C comes from, have a exhaust fan pull A/C air to my room I use for grow? Would this work?
right now I use portable A/C itself for air exchange.
What Im think could be wrong is I have no exhaust for the room.

Any feedback or input are welcome
happy grow guys~

I made some call today. They will have people come over.
Im not sure if they can get it fix right away.
if not, I still need to do something to keep the room cold.
My flowering room is only two week away for harvest. I thing the even need colder temp. than I had before.

Still want to know if I can have use window A/C in the other room. I suck cold into the room I use for grow.

I also wonder what if I have my A/C broken when its a window or mini spilt.
There is no way I let them into the room to fix it. there is no cannbis friendly electrician here
Any experience when have A/C broken, pls share with me.

Any feedback or input are welcome
thanks in advance
happy grow

You need someplace for the condensation ( water) to go. That duct just takes the hot air away.
Put air conditioner on top of small table and connect a hose to that drain hole and a bucket.
Or maybe the condenser is clogged. Check the radiators.

Or google "portable ac troubleshooting)

Thanks for the reply.
The problem is the condensation water isn't came from where it supposed to come out.
The manual says it don't need to have hose for drain. There is a small tank, it will stop when it's full. I been using this unit for about a month. I don't have drain hose, nothing happened. I'm sure I have all the Dorian holes stuck. The water just keep coming out. I'm sure I need someone here to fix it.
Do u think I can pull cold air Dom another room and no exhaust in my grow room?
Once again appreciate for sharing your knowledge.
Cheers
