Water On Floor Around Furnace. If the furnace is leaking or accumulating water at the base its most likely a condensation leak. Condensate line slimmed up blow out with compressed air restore proper flow to pump.
Condensate line slimmed up blow out with compressed air restore proper flow to pump. There is a small pipe that runs from the furnaceAC down to the condensate pump on the floor then a hose runs from the condensate pump out to a. If the water is definitely coming from the furnace it could be coming from the furnace itself or the air conditioner.
High-efficiency furnaces extract heat from the combustion gases for a longer period of time than a standard-efficiency furnace does causing the gases to cool then condense.
When you see water puddling around the furnace with the AC running you have a clogged condensate drain tube. There is a small pipe that runs from the furnaceAC down to the condensate pump on the floor then a hose runs from the condensate pump out to a. Non of the drain hosed s are plugged. Condensation from air conditioning coils contains bacteria that can form slime and clog the condensate pan drain tube.
